In AFS, mountpoints appear as symlinks with mode 0644 and normal symlinks have mode 0777, so use this to distinguish them rather than reading the content and parsing it. In the case of a mountpoint, the symlink body is a formatted string indicating the location of the target volume. Note that with this, kAFS no longer 'pre-fetches' the contents of symlinks, so afs_readpage() may fail with an access-denial because when the VFS calls d_automount(), it wraps the call in an credentials override that sets the initial creds - thereby preventing access to the caller's keyrings and the authentication keys held therein. To this end, a patch reverting that change to the VFS is required also.
