[PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: Fix d_splice_alias() return code checking

From: Richard Weinberger
Date: Sun Oct 19 2014 - 06:40:37 EST


d_splice_alias() can return a valid dentry, NULL or an ERR_PTR.
Currently the code checks not for ERR_PTR and my oops in
ocfs2_dentry_attach_lock().
Fix this by using IS_ERR_OR_NULL().
