David Howells 0da0b7fd73 afs: Display manually added cells in dynamic root mount
Alter the dynroot mount so that cells created by manipulation of
/proc/fs/afs/cells and /proc/fs/afs/rootcell and by specification of a root
cell as a module parameter will cause directories for those cells to be
created in the dynamic root superblock for the network namespace[*].

To this end:

 (1) Only one dynamic root superblock is now created per network namespace
     and this is shared between all attempts to mount it.  This makes it
     easier to find the superblock to modify.

 (2) When a dynamic root superblock is created, the list of cells is walked
     and directories created for each cell already defined.

 (3) When a new cell is added, if a dynamic root superblock exists, a
     directory is created for it.

 (4) When a cell is destroyed, the directory is removed.

 (5) These directories are created by calling lookup_one_len() on the root
     dir which automatically creates them if they don't exist.

[*] Inasmuch as network namespaces are currently supported here.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
