So, you fail after "inode" was set (say vfs_unlink returned an error)
the first time, then before "inode" was set (lookup_hash returns an
error), and you end up incorrectly doing another iput() the second time
through if you don't reset inode here?
(I think I made the same mistake in another patch, actually....)
