jfs: dont overwrite dentry name in d_revalidate
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Use vfat's method for dealing with negative dentries to preserve case,
rather than overwrite dentry name in d_revalidate, which is a bit ugly
and also gets in the way of doing lock-free path walking.
