Excellent comment; even better said and clearer that the UM design doc.
It's almost a pity such excellent description is buried in the middle of
namei.c.

There's a lot of repetition of this condition:

	IS_OPAQUE(dentry->d_inode) && !d_is_fallthru(dentry)

in this patch.  Perhaps this should be macro'ized?

#define CANT_GO_ON(d)	(IS_OPAQUE((d)->d_inode) && !d_is_fallthru((d))) // :-)
