I was working on handling lookup intents in cifs code.

So when in cifs lookup, we do a open after figuring out that is what
the intent is,
I do not know how to handle the generated and filled inode with the
info from open.

I do not think I can assign it to dentry and instantiate as vfs will
return with
EEXIST.  So I am not sure what to do with the inode.

Your help is appreciated.  FYI, I do not subscribe to this mailing list.

Regards,

Shirish
