[PATCH 03/13] VFS: remove nameidata args from ->follow_link and ->put_link

From: NeilBrown
Date: Mon Mar 16 2015 - 00:44:39 EST

Now that current->nameidata is available, nd_set_link() and
nd_get_link() can use that directly, so 'nd' doesn't need to
be passed through ->follow_link and ->put_link.

->follow_link gains a 'flags' argument instead which will
be useful for adding RCU-walk support.
For now, any filesystem which cannot trivially handle RCU-walk
support simply returns -ECHILD if LOOKUP_RCU is set in 'flags'.

security_inode_follow_link() all gets 'flags' in place of 'nd',
as does the inode_follow_link() security_op.

As a result of this change, 'nameidata' is almost entirely
local to namei.c. It is only exposed externally as an opaque struct
pointed to by current->nameidata.

Note: Documentation/filesystemd/automount-support.txt mentions
nameidata in ways that have been wrong for a while and are still
wrong.
