[PATCH v3 14/21] fold the call of retain_dentry() into fast_dput()

[Al Viro]

Calls of retain_dentry() happen immediately after getting false
from fast_dput() and getting true from retain_dentry() is
treated the same way as non-zero refcount would be treated by
fast_dput() - unlock dentry and bugger off.

Doing that in fast_dput() itself is simpler.
