NeilBrown 19d008b469 NFSD: reduce locking in nfsd_lookup()
nfsd_lookup() takes an exclusive lock on the parent inode, but no
callers want the lock and it may not be needed at all if the
result is in the dcache.

Change nfsd_lookup_dentry() to not take the lock, and call
lookup_one_len_locked() which takes lock only if needed.

nfsd4_open() currently expects the lock to still be held, but that isn't
necessary as nfsd_validate_delegated_dentry() provides required
guarantees without the lock.

NOTE: NFSv4 requires directory changeinfo for OPEN even when a create
  wasn't requested and no change happened.  Now that nfsd_lookup()
  doesn't use fh_lock(), we need to explicitly fill the attributes
  when no create happens.  A new fh_fill_both_attrs() is provided
  for that task.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
