Subject: [PATCH v4 0/3] afs: Fix dynamic root interaction with failing DNS lookups

Hi Markus, Marc,

Here's a set of fixes to improve the interaction of arbitrary lookups in
the AFS dynamic root that hit DNS lookup failures[1]:

 (1) Always delete unused (particularly negative) dentries as soon as
     possible so that they don't prevent future lookups from retrying.

 (2) Fix the handling of new-style negative DNS lookups in ->lookup() to
     make them return ENOENT so that userspace doesn't get confused when
     stat succeeds but the following open on the looked up file then fails.

 (3) Fix key handling so that DNS lookup results are reclaimed as soon as
     they expire rather than sitting round either forever or for an
     additional 5 mins beyond a set expiry time returning EKEYEXPIRED.

The patches can be found here:

Thanks,
David
