Amir Goldstein 8ea2876577 ovl: do not reconnect upper index records in ovl_indexdir_cleanup()
ovl_indexdir_cleanup() is called on mount of overayfs with nfs_export
feature to cleanup stale index records for lower and upper files that have
been deleted while overlayfs was offline.

This has the side effect (good or bad) of pre populating inode cache with
all the copied up upper inodes, while verifying the index entries.

For copied up directories, the upper file handles are decoded to conncted
upper dentries.  This has the even bigger side effect of reading the
content of all the parent upper directories which may take significantly
more time and IO than just reading the upper inodes.

Do not request connceted upper dentries for verifying upper directory index
entries, because we have no use for the connected dentry.

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.

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.
