Huh?  nd->total_link_count, please.

Similar.

We probably ought to pass nd through follow_mount / follow_automount, instead
of nd->flags, and use nd->total_link_count here.

Again, nd->link_count.

I'm not sure it's the right place ;-/  I'll play with that a bit and see
if I can get it cleaner...

Now, _that_ is broken - get ERR_PTR(...) from ->follow_link() and you've
leaked nameidata.
