Actually, in vfs-2.6.git/for-next patch I'd done simply
	if (buf.result)
		error = buf.result;

If we have !buf.result, we know that foo_readdir() hadn't called filldir at
all.  I.e. it's either an error or a genuine EOF.  And no ->readdir()
instances return a positive in the latter case, so there's no need to bother.

FWIW, below is the patch in question (commit cb81e118...).  I have _not_
touched the mess in nfs4 code; it's badly broken and I strongly suspect
that the right thing to do is to evict that crap to userland.  Another
omission is ecryptfs_readdir(), but since that sucker is badly broken
as well *and* I can't even guess WTF had it been trying to achieve...
I'd asked mhalcrow, but looks like he's on vacation ;-/
