sysfs: Remove s_dentry
The only uses of s_dentry left are the code that maintains s_dentry and trivial users that don't actually need it. So this patch removes the s_dentry maintenance code and restructures the trivial uses to use something else. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Cc: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
