Subject: [PATCH] fs: namei: fix two excess parameter description warnings

While building the kernel documentation, two excess parameter description
warnings appear:
	./fs/namei.c:3589: warning: Excess function parameter 'dentry'
	description in 'vfs_tmpfile'
	./fs/namei.c:3589: warning: Excess function parameter 'open_flag'
	description in 'vfs_tmpfile'

Fix these warnings by changing 'dentry' to 'parentpath' in the parameter
description and 'open_flag' to 'file' and change 'file' parameter's
description accordingly.
