The EEXIST errors returned from server are strong sign that a local negative dentry should be invalidated. Similarly, The ENOENT errors from server can also be a sign of revalidate failure. This commit invalidates dentries on EEXIST creates and ENOENT deletes by calling fuse_invalidate_entry(), which improves the consistency with no performance degradation.
