vfs: Remove d_drop calls from d_revalidate implementations
Now that d_invalidate always succeeds it is not longer necessary or desirable to hard code d_drop calls into filesystem specific d_revalidate implementations. Remove the unnecessary d_drop calls and rely on d_invalidate to drop the dentries. Using d_invalidate ensures that paths to mount points will not be dropped.
