nfs: when attempting to open a directory, fall back on normal lookup (try #5)
commit 1788ea6e3b2a58cf4fb00206e362d9caff8d86a7 upstream. commit d953126 changed how nfs_atomic_lookup handles an -EISDIR return from an OPEN call. Prior to that patch, that caused the client to fall back to doing a normal lookup. When that patch went in, the code began returning that error to userspace. The d_revalidate codepath however never had the corresponding change, so it was still possible to end up with a NULL ctx->state pointer after that. That patch caused a regression. When we attempt to open a directory that does not have a cached dentry, that open now errors out with EISDIR. If you attempt the same open with a cached dentry, it will succeed. Fix this by reverting the change in nfs_atomic_lookup and allowing attempts to open directories to fall back to a normal lookup Also, add a NFSv4-specific f_ops->open routine that just returns -ENOTDIR. This should never be called if things are working properly, but if it ever is, then the dprintk may help in debugging. To facilitate this, a new file_operations field is also added to the nfs_rpc_ops struct.
