Subject: [PATCH 0/2] afs: Dynamic root improvements

Here's a pair of patches to make a number of improvements to the AFS
dynamic root:

 (1) Create an /afs/.<cell> mountpoint to match the /afs/<cell> mountpoint
     when a cell is created.

 (2) Change the handling of /afs/@...l from being a dentry name
     substitution at lookup time to making it a symlink to the current cell
     name and also provide a /afs/.@...l symlink to point to the dotted
     cell mountpoint.

The patches are here:

Thanks,
David
