When a cell with a volume location server list is added manually by
echoing the details into /proc/net/afs/cells, a record is added but the
flag saying it has been looked up isn't set.
This causes the VL server rotation code to wait forever, with the top of
/proc/pid/stack looking like:
afs_select_vlserver+0x3a6/0x6f3
afs_vl_lookup_vldb+0x4b/0x92
afs_create_volume+0x25/0x1b9
...
with the thread stuck in afs_start_vl_iteration() waiting for
AFS_CELL_FL_NO_LOOKUP_YET to be cleared.
Fix this by clearing AFS_CELL_FL_NO_LOOKUP_YET when setting up a record
if that record's details were supplied manually.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
