[PATCH v2 1/5] kernfs: Rename kernfs_put_open_node to kernfs_unlink_open_file.

From: Imran Khan
Date: Wed May 04 2022 - 05:52:05 EST


Since we are no longer using refcnt for kernfs_open_node instances, rename
kernfs_put_open_node to kernfs_unlink_open_file to reflect this change.
Also update function description and inline comments accordingly.
