    [PATCH] autofs4: can't mount due to mount point dir not empty · 2d753e62
    Ian Kent 提交于
    Addresse a problem where stale dentrys stop mounts from happening.
    
    When a mount point directory is pre-created and a non-existent entry within it
    is requested a dentry ends up being created within the mount point directory
    which stops future mounts.  The problem is solved by ignoring negative,
    unhashed dentrys in the mount point d_subdirs list.
    
    Additionally the apparent cacheing of -ENOENT returns from requests is
    removed.  The test on d_time is a tautology and d_time is not initialised and
    has an unexpected value.  In short it doesn't do what it's meant to.
    
    The cacheing of failed requests to the daemon is important and will be
    followed up later.
