autofs races
* make autofs4_expire_indirect() skip the dentries being in process of expiry * do *not* mess with list_move(); making sure that dentry with AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING are not picked for expiry is enough. * do not remove NO_RCU when we set EXPIRING, don't bother with smp_mb() there. Clear it at the same time we clear EXPIRING. Makes a bunch of tests simpler. * rename NO_RCU to WANT_EXPIRE, which is what it really is. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
