untangling do_lookup() - get rid of need_reval in !dentry case

Everything arriving into if (!dentry) will have need_reval = 1.
Indeed, the only way to get there with need_reval reset to 0 would
be via
	if (unlikely(d_need_lookup(dentry)))
		goto unlazy;
	if (unlikely(dentry->d_flags & DCACHE_OP_REVALIDATE)) {
		status = d_revalidate(dentry, nd);
	if (unlikely(status <= 0)) {
		if (status != -ECHILD)
			need_reval = 0;
		goto unlazy;
...
unlazy:
	/* no assignments to dentry */
	if (dentry && unlikely(d_need_lookup(dentry))) {
		dput(dentry);
		dentry = NULL;
	}
and if d_need_lookup() had already been false the first time around, it
will remain false on the second call as well.
