+Subject: 9p: missing chunk of "fs/9p: Don't update file type when updating file attributes"
+
+From: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
+
+commit b577d0cd2104fdfcf0ded3707540a12be8ddd8b0 upstream.
+
+In commit 45089142b149 Aneesh had missed one (admittedly, very unlikely
+to hit) case in v9fs_stat2inode_dotl(). However, the same considerations
+apply there as well - we have no business whatsoever to change ->i_rdev
+or the file type.
