+  * Fix an issue where running 'ls -l' on an autofs mount with
+    '--ghost' or 'browse_mode=yes' enabled causes the mount to be
+    attempted, even when the underlying storage is not available.
+    This changes behaviour of ls back to what it was previously,
+    before statx was introduced in 8.32. (LP: #2033892)

+commit 85c975df2c25bd799370b04bb294e568e001102f
+From: Rohan Sable <rsable@redhat.com>
+Date: Mon, 7 Mar 2022 14:14:13 +0000
+Subject: ls: avoid triggering automounts
+ statx() has different defaults wrt automounting
+ compared to stat() or lstat(), so explicitly
+ set the AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT flag to suppress that behavior,
+ and avoid unintended operations or potential errors.
+ 
+ * src/ls.c (do_statx): Pass AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT to avoid this behavior.
+ Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/54286
