fs: add do_lookup_dcookie() helper; remove in-kernel call to syscall
Using the fs-internal do_lookup_dcookie() helper allows us to get rid of fs-internal calls to the sys_lookup_dcookie() syscall. This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180325162527.GA17492@light.dominikbrodowski.net Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net>
