Ian Kent c9ffec4848 [PATCH] autofs4: check for directory re-create in lookup ...

This problem was identified and fixed some time ago by Jeff Moyer but it fell
through the cracks somehow.

It is possible that a user space application could remove and re-create a
directory during a request.  To avoid returning a failure from lookup
incorrectly when our current dentry is unhashed we need to check if another
positive, hashed dentry matching this one exists and if so return it instead
of a fail.
