[PATCH 04/39] primitives for maintaining persisitency

[Al Viro]

* d_make_persistent(dentry, inode) - bump refcount, mark persistent and
make hashed positive.  Return value is a borrowed reference to dentry;
it can be used until something removes persistency (at the very least,
until the parent gets unlocked, but some filesystems may have stronger
exclusion).

* d_make_discardable() - remove persistency mark and drop reference.

d_make_persistent() is similar to combination of d_instantiate(), dget()
and setting flag.  The only difference is that unlike d_instantiate()
it accepts hashed and unhashed negatives alike.  It is always called in
strong locking environment (parent held exclusive); if we ever start using
it with parent held only shared, we'll need to copy the in-lookup logics
from __d_add().

d_make_discardable() is eqiuvalent to combination of removing flag and
dput(); since flag removal requires ->d_lock, there's no point trying
to avoid taking that for refcount decrement as fast_dput() does.
The slow path of dput() has been taken into a helper and reused in
d_make_discardable() instead.
