[CIFS] Incorrect hardlink count when original file is cached (oplocked)
Fixes Samba bug 2823 In this case hardlink count is stale for one of the two inodes (ie the original file) until it is closed - since revalidate does not go to server while file is cached locally. Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
