Subject: [PATCH] VFS: remove d_weak_revalidate inode operation

d_weak_revalidate is now very similar to d_revalidate.
The difference is that the former always has LOOKUP_JUMPED
set and the later doesn't.  When LOOKUP_JUMPED is set
the name does not need to be revalidated, but the inode might.

This distinction can be managed entirely in the filesystem
without needing two similar entry points.

So discard d_weak_revalidate and call d_revalidate instead.
Make sure all d_revalidate functions avoid checking the validity
of the name if LOOKUP_JUMPED is set.
