5.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 5f7a07646655fb4108da527565dcdc80124b14c4 ]

If a directory has a block with only ".__afsXXXX" files in it (from
uncompleted silly-rename), these .__afsXXXX files are skipped but without
advancing the file position in the dir_context.  This leads to
afs_dir_iterate() repeating the block again and again.

Fix this by making the code that skips the .__afsXXXX file also manually
advance the file position.

The symptoms are a soft lookup:

        watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#3 stuck for 52s! [check:5737]
        ...
        RIP: 0010:afs_dir_iterate_block+0x39/0x1fd
        ...
         ? watchdog_timer_fn+0x1a6/0x213
        ...
         ? asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x16/0x20
         ? afs_dir_iterate_block+0x39/0x1fd
         afs_dir_iterate+0x10a/0x148
         afs_readdir+0x30/0x4a
         iterate_dir+0x93/0xd3
         __do_sys_getdents64+0x6b/0xd4

This is almost certainly the actual fix for:
