[PATCH 12/53] nfs: don't d_drop() before d_splice_alias() in atomic_create.

From: NeilBrown <neil at brown.name>
When atomic_create fails with -ENOENT we currently d_drop() the dentry
and then re-add it (d_splice_alias()) with a NULL inode.
This drop-and-re-add will not work with proposed locking changes.
As d_splice_alias() now supports hashed dentries, we don't need the
d_drop() until it is determined that some other error has occurred.
