fix LOOKUP_FOLLOW on automount "symlinks""Make sure that automount "symlinks" are followed regardless of LOOKUP_FOLLOW; it should have no effect on them."
Upstream commit: http://git.kernel.org/linus/ac278a9c505092dd82077a2446af8f9fc0d9c095 Note: + * This is a temporary kludge to deal with "automount" symlinks; proper + * solution is to trigger them on follow_mount(), so that do_lookup() + * would DTRT. To be killed before 2.6.34-final. This affects kernels version 2.6.18 onwards. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=567813 Thanks, Eugene
