[PATCH] nfsd: fix spurious error return from nfsd_create in async case Commit 6264d69d7df654ca64f625e9409189a0e50734e9 modified the nfsd_create() error handling in such a way that nfsd_create will usually return nfserr_perm even when succesful, if the export has the async export option. This introduced a regression that could cause mkdir() to always return a permissions error, even though the directory in question was actually succesfully created. Signed-off-by: J.
