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.
