From: Dominique Martinet <asmadeus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 38d222b3163f7b7d737e5d999ffc890a12870e36 ] It's possible for v9fs_fid_find "find by dentry" branch to not turn up anything despite having an entry set (because e.g. uid doesn't match), in which case the calling code will generally make an extra lookup to the server. In this case we might have had better luck looking by inode, so fall back to look up by inode if we have one and the lookup by dentry failed.
