Hi Neils,

FYI, this is fairly easy to reproduce on-demand with gluster:

- mount a volume to two local mountpoints (i.e., I used a single
storage/posix translator volume):
        glusterfs --volfile=./test.vol /mnt/{1,2} --use-readdirp=1
- create a negative dentry in one mountpoint:
        ls /mnt/1/file (results in ENOENT)
- create the file via the second mountpoint:
        touch /mnt/2/file
- run a readdirp on the first mountpoint:
        ls /mnt/1/
- umount /mnt/2 /mnt/1

I'm not really familiar with the dcache code, but is it appropriate to
also d_invalidate() the dentry in this case (as the previous code block
does)? Perhaps Miklos or somebody more familiar with dcache can confirm...
