[git pull] LOOKUP_DIRECTORY fix

From: Al Viro
Date: Fri Mar 26 2010 - 12:53:58 EST


Restore LOOKUP_DIRECTORY handling in case of open() with
O_DIRECTORY. While filesystems shouldn't have require O_DIRECTORY
for directory lookup to succeed, they have legitimate case for
knowing that flag had been there - it's a useful hint.

git breakage on NFSv4 in -rc1/-rc2 should be fixed by that.
Please, pull from
