[PATCH 2/3] fs: namei: Allow follow_down() to uncover auto mounts

[Richard Weinberger]

This function is only used by NFSD to cross mount points.
If a mount point is of type auto mount, follow_down() will
not uncover it. Add LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT to the lookup flags
to have ->d_automount() called when NFSD walks down the
mount tree.
