Subject: autofs4: detect invalid direct mount requests
From: Ian Kent <raven@xxxxxxxxxx>

autofs v5 direct and offset mounts within an autofs filesystem are
triggered by existing autofs triger mounts so the mount point dentry must
be positive.  If the mount point dentry is negative then the trigger
doesn't exist so we can return fail immediately.
