Sorry for the braino; FWIW, I'd rather add

static inline struct p9_fid *fid_clone(struct p9_fid *fid)
{
        if (IS_ERR(fid))
                return fid;
        return p9_client_walk(fid, 0, NULL, 1);
}

and turn those into fid_clone(v9fs_parent_fid(old_dentry)), etc.  Has an
extra benefit of simplifying several other places.  I'll fix and post
(with credits to you for spotting the bug in question, of course).
