Merge branch 'work.namei' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull vfs namei updates from Al Viro:

 - make lookup_one_len() safe with parent locked only shared(incoming
   afs series wants that)

 - fix of getname_kernel() regression from 2015 (-stable fodder, that
   one).

* 'work.namei' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  getname_kernel() needs to make sure that ->name != ->iname in long case
  make lookup_one_len() safe to use with directory locked shared
  new helper: __lookup_slow()
  merge common parts of lookup_one_len{,_unlocked} into common helper
