smb: client: short-circuit negative lookups when parent dir is fully cached
When the parent directory has a valid and complete cached enumeration we can assume that negative dentries are not present in the directory, thus we can return without issuing a request. This reduces traffic for common ENOENT when the directory entries are cached. Signed-off-by: Henrique Carvalho <henrique.carvalho@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com>
