[PATCH 15/39] convert fuse_ctl

objects are created in fuse_ctl_add_dentry() by d_alloc_name()+d_add(),
removed by simple_remove_by_name().
What we return is a borrowed reference - it is valid until the call of
fuse_ctl_remove_conn() and we depend upon the exclusion (on fuse_mutex)
for safety. Return value is used only within the caller
(fuse_ctl_add_conn()).
Replace d_add() with d_make_persistent() + dput(). dput() is paired
with d_alloc_name() and return value is the result of d_make_persistent().
