    [CIFS] mount of IPC$ breaks with iget patch · ad661334
    Steve French authored
    In looking at network named pipe support on cifs, I noticed that
    Dave Howell's iget patch:
    
        iget: stop CIFS from using iget() and read_inode()
    
    broke mounts to IPC$ (the interprocess communication share), and don't
    handle the error case (when getting info on the root inode fails).
    
    Thanks to Gunter who noted a typo in a debug line in the original
    version of this patch.
