Linux: Do drop dentry if lookup returns ENOENT

Commit 997f7fce437787a45ae0584beaae43affbd37cce switched to using
d_invalidate instead of d_drop to prevent unhashing dentries
which are only temporarily invalid and may still be referenced
by someone having a current working directory pointing to it.
This could result in getting ENOENT from getcwd() after some
transient problems, even when the directory is there and
accessible.

The change had the side effect of potentially leaving something
visible when it has actually been removed, for instance a mountpoint
removed by "fs rm".

If afs_lookup returns ENOENT, we want to forcibly drop (unhash)
the dentry, even if it has current users.
