This approach uses another bit in the inode flags..  if that's too expensive
for this ls -l optimization, I will look for another way.

Change from v1:
	Doesn't completely break the commit 311324ad1713 functionality.

8<-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Commit 311324ad1713666a6e803aecf0d4e1a136a5b34a ("NFS: Be more aggressive
in using readdirplus for 'ls -l' situations") removed the optimization
added by commit 07b5ce8ef2d87f1914054804720d6facbaa3f4ce ("NFS: Make nfs_readdir
revalidate less often") to bypass the revalidation of the directory mapping
on subsequent calls into nfs_readdir().  Add that optimization back here.

A directory modified once every second and containing 40k entries takes my
system around 80 seconds to list.  With this patch, that time is reduced to
7 seconds.
