2.6.26-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

From: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
commit ad661334b8ae421154b121ee6ad3b56807adbf11 upstream
In looking at network named pipe support on cifs, I noticed that
Dave Howell's iget patch:
iget: stop CIFS from using iget() and read_inode()
broke mounts to IPC$ (the interprocess communication share), and don't
handle the error case (when getting info on the root inode fails).
Thanks to Gunter who noted a typo in a debug line in the original
version of this patch.
