Generalize the VV_CROSSLOCK logic in vfs_lookup()
When VV_CROSSLOCK is present, the lock for the vnode at the current stage of lookup must be held across the VFS_ROOT() call for the filesystem mounted at the vnode. Since VV_CROSSLOCK implies that the root vnode reuses the already-held lock, the possibility for recursion should be made clear in the flags passed to VFS_ROOT(). For cases in which the lock is held exclusive, this means passing LK_CANRECURSE. For cases in which the lock is held shared, it means clearing LK_NODDLKTREAT to allow VFS_ROOT() to potentially recurse on the shared lock even in the presence of an exclusive waiter. That the existing code works for unionfs is due to a coincidence of the current unionfs implementation. Reviewed by: kib Tested by: pho Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D37458
