Yeah, something like that. And we also need to modify
jffs2_add_fd_to_list() so that if we later add a new dirent which
_replaces_ this one, it doesn't oops after calling
jffs2_mark_node_obsolete(c, fd->raw);

Nah, no need for that. It's already _in_ the list.

We probably need to implement a release() operation in the
jffs2_dir_operations (top of dir.c), which will remove the fake
'deletion' dirents if !atomic_read(&inode->i_count). Or something like
that.
