NFS: Detect loops in a readdir due to bad cookies
Some filesystems (such as ext4) can return the same cookie value for multiple files. If we try to start a readdir with one of these cookies, the server will return the first file found with a cookie of the same value. This can cause the client to enter an infinite loop.
