If lazy call of ->permission() returns a hard error, check that try_to_unlazy() succeeds before returning it. That both makes life easier for ->permission() instances and closes the race in ENOTDIR handling - it is possible that positive d_can_lookup() seen in link_path_walk() applies to the state *after* unlink() + mkdir(), while nd->inode matches the state prior to that. Normally seeing e.g. EACCES from permission check in rcu pathwalk means that with some timings non-rcu pathwalk would've run into the same; however, running into a non-executable regular file in the middle of a pathname would not get to permission check - it would fail with ENOTDIR instead.
