Subject: [git pull] vfs.git pathwalk sanitizing

	Massive pathwalk rewrite and cleanups.  Several iterations had
been posted; hopefully the damn thing is getting readable and understandable
now.  Pretty much all parts of pathname resolutions are affected...

The branch is identical to what has sat in -next, except for commit message in
"lift all calls of step_into() out of follow_dotdot/follow_dotdot_rcu",
crediting Qian Cai for reporting the bug; only commit message changed there.
 I'd folded the fix back in Mar 25, and it had been present in -next since then
(see #work.dotdot).  I asked Qian Cai whether he wanted his tested-by on that
thing, got no reply...
	Anyway, all diffs in that branch are identical to the ones in
#work.dotdot, which is what has sat in linux-next for the last week.
