[bug #24140] Painfully slow find(1) in list-permission-only AFS paths

[Daniel Richard G.]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #24140 (project findutils):

Please see comment #2. The question is, "Should find(1) have an option that
causes it to trust d_type=DT_UNKNOWN, or should it specifically check for AFS
and do the same without user intervention when working inside that
filesystem?"

I recognize that find(1) can't always trust the value of d_type, so I need to
know what *specifically* should cause it to do so in situations when it is
working under AFS. (I can't put together a patch until I know what behavior
I'm implementing.)
