autofs4: fix pending checks
There are two cases for which a dentry that has a pending mount request
does not wait for completion. One is via autofs4_revalidate() and the
other via autofs4_follow_link().
In revalidate, after the mount point directory is created, but before the
mount is done, the check in try_to_fill_dentry() can can fail to send the
dentry to the wait queue since the dentry is positive and the lookup flags
may contain only LOOKUP_FOLLOW. Although we don't trigger a mount for the
LOOKUP_FOLLOW flag, if ther's one pending we might as well wait and use
the mounted dentry for the lookup.
In autofs4_follow_link() the dentry is not checked to see if it is pending
so it may fail to call try_to_fill_dentry() and not wait for mount
completion.
A dentry that is pending must always be sent to the wait queue.
