    afs: Revert "afs: Hide silly-rename files from userspace"
    
    [ Upstream commit 0aec3847d044273733285dcff90afda89ad461d2 ]
    
    This reverts commit 57e9d49c54528c49b8bffe6d99d782ea051ea534.
    
    This undoes the hiding of .__afsXXXX silly-rename files.  The problem with
    hiding them is that rm can't then manually delete them.
    
    This also reverts commit 5f7a07646655fb4108da527565dcdc80124b14c4 ("afs: Fix
    endless loop in directory parsing") as that's a bugfix for the above.
