commit 6c441c254eea2354d686be7f5544bcd79fb6a61f upstream.
If we're traversing a directory which contains a submounted filesystem,
or one that has a referral, the NFS server that is processing the READDIR
request will often return information for the underlying (mounted-on)
directory. It may, or may not, also return filehandle information.
If this happens, and the lookup in nfs_prime_dcache() returns the
dentry for the submounted directory, the filehandle comparison will
fail, and we call d_invalidate(). Post-commit 8ed936b5671bf
("vfs: Lazily remove mounts on unlinked files and directories."), this
means the entire subtree is unmounted.
The following minimal patch addresses this problem by punting on
the invalidation if there is a submount.
Kudos to Neil Brown <[email protected]> for having tracked down this
issue (see link).
