Right now, inode_go_instantiate() contains functionality that relates to how a glock is held rather than the glock itself, like waiting for pending direct I/O to complete and completing interrupted truncates. This code is meant to be run each time a holder is acquired, but go_instantiate is actually only called once, when the glock is instantiated. To fix that, introduce a new go_held glock operation that is called each time a glock holder is acquired. Move the holder specific code in inode_go_instantiate() over to inode_go_held().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
