I clearly missed this in the original commit. Why do you need this special-case 'dot' behaviour ? Why cannot getfhat() behave same as openat(2) WRT NULL path ?

The dot special behaviour was because our application is currently using getfhat with a NULL path. We'll fix this in the application rather than in kernel code. I've rolled back to a behaviour similar to openat, also amended the manpage.
