ceph: only use d_name directly when parent is locked



Ben reported tripping the BUG_ON in create_request_message during some
performance testing. Analysis of the vmcore showed that the length of
the r_dentry->d_name string changed after we allocated the buffer, but
before we encoded it.

build_dentry_path returns pointers to d_name in the common case of
non-snapped dentries, but this optimization isn't safe unless the parent
directory is locked. When it isn't, have the code make a copy of the
d_name while holding the d_lock.
