Pull AFS fixes from David Howells: "Improve the interaction of arbitrary lookups in the AFS dynamic root that hit DNS lookup failures [1] where kafs behaves differently from openafs and causes some applications to fail that aren't expecting that. Further, negative DNS results aren't getting removed and are causing failures to persist. - Always delete unused (particularly negative) dentries as soon as possible so that they don't prevent future lookups from retrying. - Fix the handling of new-style negative DNS lookups in ->lookup() to make them return ENOENT so that userspace doesn't get confused when stat succeeds but the following open on the looked up file then fails. - Fix key handling so that DNS lookup results are reclaimed almost as soon as they expire rather than sitting round either forever or for an additional 5 mins beyond a set expiry time returning EKEYEXPIRED. They persist for 1s as /bin/ls will do a second stat call if the first fails" Link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216637 [1] Reviewed-by: Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@auristor.com> * tag 'afs-fixes-20231221' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs: keys, dns: Allow key types (eg.
