vfs: clean up argument list for vfs_create()
As Neil points out:
"I would be in favour of dropping the "dir" arg because it is always
d_inode(dentry->d_parent) which is stable."
...and...
"Also *every* caller of vfs_create() passes ".excl = true". So maybe we
don't need that arg at all."
Drop both arguments from vfs_create() and fix up the callers.
