Here is a patch for autofs4 to, hopefully, resolve this.
Keep in mind this doesn't address any other autofs4 issues but I it
should allow us to identify if this was in fact the root cause of the
problem Jesper reported.
autofs4 - leave rehashed dentry positive
From: Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net>
Correct the error of making a positive dentry negative after it has been
instantiated.
This involves removing the code in autofs4_lookup_unhashed() that
makes the dentry negative and updating autofs4_dir_symlink() and
autofs4_dir_mkdir() to recognise they have been given a postive
dentry (previously the dentry was always negative) and deal with
it. In addition the dentry info struct initialization, autofs4_init_ino(),
and the symlink free function, ino_lnkfree(), have been made aware
of this possible re-use. This is needed because the current case
re-uses a dentry in order to preserve it's flags as described in
commit f50b6f8691cae2e0064c499dd3ef3f31142987f0.
