NFSv4: Follow a referral
Respond to a moved error on NFS lookup by setting up the referral. Note: We don't actually follow the referral during lookup/getattr, but later when we detect fsid mismatch in inode revalidation (similar to the processing done for cloning submounts). Referrals will have fake attributes until they are actually followed or traversed. Signed-off-by: Manoj Naik <manoj@almaden.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
