filename_lookup used to return success for non-existing file when called
with LOOKUP_PARENT flag. This behaviour was changed with
commit 8bcb77fabd7c ("namei: split off filename_lookupat()
with LOOKUP_PARENT")

filename_lookup used to return success for non-existing file when called
with LOOKUP_PARENT flag. This behaviour was changed with
commit 8bcb77fabd7c ("namei: split off filename_lookupat()
