    aufs: fuse branch (including poll(2)) · 08ecca6f

    Fuse doesn't want the callers to access the inode attributes without
    issuing stat, and it is not assured that they are valid after lookup or
    iget().
    The inode attribute is critical for aufs, and aufs decided to call stat
    every time for fuse.
    Of course, it makes aufs slow. But when the branch fs is not fuse, stat
    is not called.
    
    Currently, only FUSE implements ->poll(), and aufs supports it.
