Please see 1/1.

Changes:

        - s/list_next_entry/list_entry/. It would be nice to move
          list_next_entry() from kernel/events/core.c to list.h
          but this needs another patch

        - Do "parent = parent->d_parent" before "!= dentry" check,
          this factors out the common code in "goto up" and final
          __debugfs_remove(dentry)

        - Add simple_release_fs() back.

The patch is hardly readable, so I attached the code below again.



Note!!! The changelog contains the simple test-case. However, this
test-case can actually reveal more problems because kernel/trace/
is buggy too. (hopefully we already have the necessary fixes).

Steven, Greg. Assuming that nobody objects and the patch is fine.
Perhaps this patch can be routed via rostedt/linux-trace tree?

This connects to other problems we are working on, it would be
nice to have this patch in the same tree to simplify the testing.

Oleg.
