From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> lookup_one_len already has this check. The only effect of this patch is to return access instead of perm in the 0-length-filename case. I actually prefer nfserr_perm (or _inval?), but I doubt anyone cares. The isdotent check seems redundant too, but I worry that some client might actually care about that strange nfserr_exist error.
