new helper: lookup_positive_unlocked()
Most of the callers of lookup_one_len_unlocked() treat negatives are ERR_PTR(-ENOENT). Provide a helper that would do just that. Note that a pinned positive dentry remains positive - it's ->d_inode is stable, etc.; a pinned _negative_ dentry can become positive at any point as long as you are not holding its parent at least shared. So using lookup_one_len_unlocked() needs to be careful; lookup_positive_unlocked() is safer and that's what the callers end up open-coding anyway. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
