Hi,

As Amir was noticing, the stacking policy proposed in this series (as
opposed to V10) is not enough to ensure that the same file undergoes
multiple FUSE passthrough paths, moreover, checking for:

  passthrough_sb->s_stack_depth > FILESYSTEM_MAX_STACK_DEPTH

looks misleading and hacky.
The simplest solution at this point in time would be to just go back to
the policy introduced in V10 and, if for some use use cases FUSE
passthrough is desirable in systems where complex stackings are
involved, the stacking policy can be revisited.

Before sending out the V12 of this series, I would love to have the
consensus both from the community and from Miklos on what is the best
way to go.

Here follows a simple diff that restores the policy as in V10.

Thanks,
Alessio
