[PATCH 3/4] NFS: Add support for CB_NOTIFY4_ADD_ENTRY

Anna Schumaker <[email protected]> Tue, 4 Aug 2026 16:59:54 -0400
Newsgroups gmane.linux.nfs
Message-ID <[email protected]>
From: Anna Schumaker <[email protected]>

When the server tells us that a directory entry has been created, we
need to instantiate a new dentry and add it to the dcache on the client.
