Commit 311324ad1713666a6e803aecf0d4e1a136a5b34a ("NFS: Be more aggressive in using readdirplus for 'ls -l' situations") removed the optimization added by commit 07b5ce8ef2d87f1914054804720d6facbaa3f4ce ("NFS: Make nfs_readdir revalidate less often") to bypass the revalidation of the directory mapping on subsequent calls into nfs_readdir(). Add that optimization back here. A directory modified once every second and containing 40k entries takes my system around 80 seconds to list. With this patch, that time is reduced to 7 seconds.
