nsfs: Simplify __ns_get_path
Move mntget from the very beginning of __ns_get_path to the success path of __ns_get_path, and remove the mntget calls. This removes the possibility that there will be a mntget/mntput pair of __ns_get_path has to retry, and generally simplifies the code. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
