[patch 1/7] vfs: mountinfo: add dentry_path()

[mszeredi@suse.cz] split big patch into managable chunks

Add the following functions:

  dentry_path()
  seq_dentry()

These are similar to d_path() and seq_path().  But instead of
calculating the path within a mount namespace, they calculate the path
from the root of the filesystem to a given dentry, ignoring mounts
completely.
