[PATCH 1/2] ecryptfs: Fix improper mknod pairing of start_creating()/end_removing()

Tyler Hicks <[email protected]>
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.ecryptfs,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel
Message-ID <[email protected]>
The ecryptfs_start_creating_dentry() function must be paired with the
end_creating() function. Fix ecryptfs_mknod() so that end_creating() is
properly called in the return path, instead of end_removing().

Fixes: f046fbb4d81d ("ecryptfs: use new start_creating/start_removing APIs")
