drop_nlink - directly drop an inodeAqs link count
2. SYNOPSIS ▲
void drop_nlink(struct inode * inode );
3. ARGUMENTS ▲
inode
inode
4. DESCRIPTION ▲
This is a low-level filesystem helper to replace any direct filesystem manipulation of i_nlink. In cases where we are attempting to track writes to the filesystem, a decrement to zero means an imminent write when the file is truncated and actually unlinked on the filesystem.
