autofs: fix symlinks aren't checked for expiry
The autofs4 module doesn't consider symlinks for expire as it did in the older autofs v3 module (so it's actually a long standing regression). The user space daemon has focused on the use of bind mounts instead of symlinks for a long time now and that's why this has not been noticed. But with the future addition of amd map parsing to automount(8), not to mention amd itself (of am-utils), symlink expiry will be needed. The direct and offset mount types can't be symlinks and the tree mounts of version 4 were always real mounts so only indirect mounts need expire symlinks. Since the current users of the autofs4 module haven't reported this as a problem to date this patch probably isn't a candidate for backport to stable.
