binderfs: switch from d_add() to d_instantiate()
In a previous commit we switched from a d_alloc_name() + d_lookup() combination to setup a new dentry and find potential duplicates to the more idiomatic lookup_one_len(). As far as I understand, this also means we need to switch from d_add() to d_instantiate() since lookup_one_len() will create a new dentry when it doesn't find an existing one and add the new dentry to the hash queues. So we only need to call d_instantiate() to connect the dentry to the inode and turn it into a positive dentry. If we were to use d_add() we sure see stack traces like the following indicating that adding the same dentry twice over the same inode: [ 744.441889] CPU: 4 PID: 2849 Comm: landscape-sysin Not tainted 5.0.0-rc1-brauner-binderfs #243 [ 744.441889] Hardware name: Dell DCS XS24-SC2 /XS24-SC2 , BIOS S59_3C20 04/07/2011 [ 744.441889] RIP: 0010:__d_lookup_rcu+0x76/0x190 [ 744.441889] Code: 89 75 c0 49 c1 e9 20 49 89 fd 45 89 ce 41 83 e6 07...
