xfs: use ->readlink to implement the readlink_by_handle ioctl
Also drop the now unused readlink_copy export. [dchinner: use d_inode(dentry) rather than dentry->d_inode] Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>
