[PATCH 3/5] kernfs: add an API to get kernfs node from inode number

[Shaohua Li]

Add an API to get kernfs node from inode number. We will need this to
implement exportfs operations.

To make the API lock free, kernfs node is freed in RCU context. And we
depend on kernfs_node count/ino number to filter stale kernfs nodes.
