NFS: Fix use of nfs_attr_use_mounted_on_fileid()
This function call was being optimized out during nfs_fhget(), leading
to situations where we have a valid fileid but still want to use the
mounted_on_fileid. For example, imagine we have our server configured
like this:
server % df
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/vda1 9.1G 6.5G 1.9G 78% /
/dev/vdb1 487M 2.3M 456M 1% /exports
/dev/vdc1 487M 2.3M 456M 1% /exports/vol1
/dev/vdd1 487M 2.3M 456M 1% /exports/vol2
If our client mounts /exports and tries to do a "chown -R" across the
entire mountpoint, we will get a nasty message warning us about a circular
directory structure. Running chown with strace tells me that each directory
has the same device and inode number:
newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/nfs/", {st_dev=makedev(0, 38), st_ino=2, ...}) = 0
newfstatat(4, "vol1", {st_dev=makedev(0, 38), st_ino=2, ...}) = 0
newfstatat(4, "vol2", {st_dev=makedev(0, 38), st_ino=2, ...}) = 0
With this patch the mounted_on_fileid values are used for st_ino, so the
directory loop warning isn't reported.
