<title>new -&gt;follow_link() and -&gt;put_link() calling conventions</title>

a) instead of storing the symlink body (via nd_set_link()) and returning
an opaque pointer later passed to -&gt;put_link(), -&gt;follow_link() _stores_
that opaque pointer (into void * passed by address by caller) and returns
the symlink body.  Returning ERR_PTR() on error, NULL on jump (procfs magic
symlinks) and pointer to symlink body for normal symlinks.  Stored pointer
is ignored in all cases except the last one.

Storing NULL for opaque pointer (or not storing it at all) means no call
of -&gt;put_link().

b) the body used to be passed to -&gt;put_link() implicitly (via nameidata).
Now only the opaque pointer is.  In the cases when we used the symlink body
to free stuff, -&gt;follow_link() now should store it as opaque pointer in addition
to returning it.

We copy there a kmalloc'ed string and proceed to kfree that string immediately
after that.  Easier to just feed that string to nd_set_link() and _not_
kfree it until -&gt;put_link() (which becomes kfree_put_link() in that case).
