Btw, to avoid dealing with file structs representing multiple objects
->readdir should be changed to an inode_operation and not take a struct
file * but rather struct inode + loff_t *ppos.  This sounds like a nice
preparatory patch for any kind of union mount implementation and is
acceptable standing on it's own.
