[PATCH 01/11] vfs: restructure d_genocide()

[Miklos Szeredi]

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxx>

It shouldn't matter when we decrement the refcount during the walk as long
as we do it exactly once.

Restructure d_genocide() to do the killing on entering the dentry instead
of when leaving it.  This helps creating a common helper for tree walking.
