[PATCH 14/24] fs: add a kern_mknod helper

[Christoph Hellwig]

Add a simple helper perform a mknod with a kernel space file name and use
it in the early init code instead of relying on the implicit
set_fs(KERNEL_DS) there.  To do so push the getname from do_mknodat into the
callers.  Remove the now unused ksys_mknod.
