Subject: [RFC PATCH] kernfs: create raw version kernfs_path_len and kernfs_path
commit 5634cc2aa9aebc77bc862992e7805469dcf83dac ("writeback: update writeback
tracepoints to report cgroup") made writeback tracepoints report cgroup
writeback, but it may trigger the below bug on -rt kernel since kernfs_path
and kernfs_path_len are called by tracepoints, which acquire sleeping lock.
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/rtmutex.c:930

Since kernfs_* functions are heavily used by cgroup, so it sounds not
reasonable to convert kernfs_rename_lock to raw lock.
Create raw version kernfs_path, kernfs_path_len and cgroup_path, which don't
acquire lock and are used by tracepoints only.

It should be applicable to both mainline and -rt kernel.
The change survives ftrace stress test in ltp.
