The final state right now is (admittedly sloppy)

  do_{mkdir,mknod,link,symlink,renameat2,rmdir,unlink}() are gone; filename_...()
  counterparts replace those.  The difference is that the former used to consume
  filename references; the latter do not.

Sure, the entire note can be split in 7 notes differing only in the names
of removed function and its replacement, but it feels wrong ;-/
