        dcache: Translating dentry into pathname without taking rename_lock
    
    The __dentry_path locking was changed and the variable error was
    intended to be moved outside of the loop.  Unfortunately the inner
    declaration of error was not removed. Resulting in a version of
    __dentry_path that will never return an error.
    
    Remove the problematic inner declaration of error and allow
    __dentry_path to return errors once again.
