Subject: [023/121] jfs: fix readdir cookie incompatibility with NFSv4

3.2.51-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dave Kleikamp <dave.kleikamp@...cle.com>

commit 44512449c0ab368889dd13ae0031fba74ee7e1d2 upstream.

NFSv4 reserves readdir cookie values 0-2 for special entries (. and ..),
but jfs allows a value of 2 for a non-special entry. This incompatibility
can result in the nfs client reporting a readdir loop.

This patch doesn't change the value stored internally, but adds one to
the value exposed to the iterate method.

[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
 - Adjust context
 - s/ctx->pos/filp->f_pos/]
