Overall this appears to be a fairly reasonable set of changes.  It does
increase the expense when an actual mount point is encountered, but if
these are the desired some increase in cost when a dentry is a
mountpoint is unavoidable.

May I ask the motiviation for this set of changes?  Reading through the
changes I don't grasp why we want to change the behavior of autofs.
What problem is being solved?  What are the benefits?
