Al Viro d85b399b64 fix proc_fill_cache() in case of d_alloc_parallel() failure
If d_alloc_parallel() returns ERR_PTR(...), we don't want to dput()
that.  Small reorganization allows to have all error-in-lookup
cases rejoin the main codepath after dput(child), avoiding the
entire problem.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
