Can we add the following structure?

struct filesystem_kobject {
struct kobject kobject;
struct completion unregister;
};

w/ it, we can simplify something:

1. merge init_completion and kobject_init_and_add

2. merge kobject_put and wait_for_completion

3. we can have a common release func for kobj_type release
