From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 809fd143de8805970eec02c27c0bc2622a6ecbda upstream. If the OPEN rpc call to the server fails with an ENOENT call, nfs_atomic_open will create a negative dentry for that file, however it currently fails to call nfs_set_verifier(), thus causing the dentry to be immediately revalidated on the next call to nfs_lookup_revalidate() instead of following the usual lookup caching rules.
