Subject: [PATCH 05/12] docs: path-lookup: remove filename_mountpoint

No filename_mountpoint any more
see commit: 161aff1d93abf0e5b5e9dbca88928998c155f677

Without filename_mountpoint and path_mountpoint(), the
numbers should be four & three:

"These four correspond roughly to the three path_*() functions"

 This pattern of "try RCU-walk, if that fails try REF-walk" can be
 clearly seen in functions like ``filename_lookup()``,
-``filename_parentat()``, ``filename_mountpoint()``,

 each of which calls ``link_path_walk()``.  The ``path_*()`` functions are
 called using different mode flags until a mode is found which works.
 They are first called with ``LOOKUP_RCU`` set to request "RCU-walk".  If
