Hi,

I was trying to understand more about LDLM, specifically Lock Value Block
(LVB's) and stumbled upon the following code block :

static int mdc_resource_inode_free(struct ldlm_resource *res)
{
        if (res->lr_lvb_inode)
                res->lr_lvb_inode = NULL;

        return 0;
}

Shouldn't the pointer (lr_lvb_inode) be freed before assigning it to NULL
?

Just curious to know.
