[PATCH 3/5] NFSv4: Replace nfs4_path_walk() with VFS path lookupin a private namespace

From: Trond Myklebust
Date: Mon Jun 22 2009 - 15:21:28 EST


As noted in the previous patch, the NFSv4 client mount code currently
has several limitations. If the mount path contains symlinks, or
referrals, or even if it just contains a '..', then the client code in
nfs4_path_walk() will fail with an error.

This patch replaces the nfs4_path_walk()-based lookup with a helper
function that sets up a private namespace to represent the namespace on the
server, then uses the ordinary VFS and NFS path lookup code to walk down the
mount path in that namespace.
