    afs: Make error on cell lookup failure consistent with OpenAFS
    
    [ Upstream commit 2a4ca1b4b77850544408595e2433f5d7811a9daa ]
    
    When kafs tries to look up a cell in the DNS or the local config, it will
    translate a lookup failure into EDESTADDRREQ whereas OpenAFS translates it
    into ENOENT.  Applications such as West expect the latter behaviour and
    fail if they see the former.
    
    This can be seen by trying to mount an unknown cell:
    
       # mount -t afs %example.com:cell.root /mnt
       mount: /mnt: mount(2) system call failed: Destination address required.
