6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: David Howells <dhowells at redhat.com>
[ Upstream commit 71f8b55bc30e82d6355e07811213d847981a32e2 ]
Fix the afs dynamic root's d_delete function to always delete unused
dentries rather than only deleting them if they're positive. With things
as they stand upstream, negative dentries stemming from failed DNS lookups
stick around preventing retries.
Fixes: 66c7e1d319a5 ("afs: Split the dynroot stuff out and give it its own ops tables")
