Subject: [PATCH 01/10] ovl: small optimisation for ovl_lookup
Date: Mon, 06 Sep 2010 10:50:28 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100906005028.20775.47191.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100906004829.20775.68828.stgit@localhost.localdomain>

If we find a non-directory in the upper layer, there is no point
performing a lookup in the lower layer as whatever is found will just
be ignored anyway.
