ceph: always initialize the dentry in open_root_dentry()
When open_root_dentry() gets a dentry via d_obtain_alias() it does not get initialized. If the dentry obtained came from the cache, this is OK. But if not, the result is an improperly initialized dentry. To fix this, call ceph_init_dentry() regardless of which path produced the dentry. That function returns immediately for a dentry that is already initialized, it is safe to use either way. (Credit to Sage, who suggested this fix.) Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>
