NFS: Don't revalidate the directory permissions on a lookup failure
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit 82e7ca1 ]

There should be no reason to expect the directory permissions to change
just because the directory contents changed or a negative lookup timed
out. So let's avoid doing a full call to nfs_mark_for_revalidate() in
that case.
Furthermore, if this is a negative dentry, and we haven't actually done
a new lookup, then we have no reason yet to believe the directory has
changed at all. So let's remove the gratuitous directory inode
invalidation altogether when called from
nfs_lookup_revalidate_negative().
