Subject: [PATCH v2 05/12] docs: path-lookup: remove filename_mountpoint
No filename_mountpoint any more
see commit: commit 161aff1d93ab ("LOOKUP_MOUNTPOINT:
fold path_mountpointat() into path_lookupat()")
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

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
