debugfs: leave freeing a symlink body until inode eviction
commit 0db59e59 upstream. As it is, we have debugfs_remove() racing with symlink traversals. Supply ->evict_inode() and do freeing there - inode will remain pinned until we are done with the symlink body. And rip the idiocy with checking if dentry is positive right after we'd verified debugfs_positive(), which is a stronger check...
