    a. Implement readdir and friends for directory lookup for late mounting.
       This is done largely by replacing a catch all condition in
       try_to_fill_dentry with appropriate cases.
    
    b. Add path calc.  function in waitq.c to get extended path to return to
       daemon (for direct mounts).
    
    c. Add revalidate calls to sys_chdir and sys_chroot so that pwd lookups
       work correctly.
    
    d. Add ioctl to retrieve minor version for automount daemon (and me) to
       recognise module fix level.  Bumped minor version to 5.

      After chdir (or chroot) to non-existent directory on 2.6.5-mm5, you can no
      longer unmount filesystem holding working directory (or root).
