debugfs: leave freeing a symlink body until inode eviction

commit 0db59e59299f0b67450c5db21f7f316c8fb04e84 upstream.

As it is, we have debugfs_remove() racing with symlink traversals.
Supply ->evict_inode() and do freeing there - inode will remain
pinned until we are done with the symlink body.

And rip the idiocy with checking if dentry is positive right after
we'd verified debugfs_positive(), which is a stronger check...

[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
 - Plumb in debugfs_super_operations, which we didn't previously define
 - Call truncate_inode_pages() instead of truncate_inode_pages_final()
 - Call end_writeback() instead of clear_inode()]
