fs: fix dropping of rcu-walk from force_reval_path
As J. R. Okajima noted, force_reval_path passes in the same dentry to
d_revalidate as the one in the nameidata structure (other callers pass in a
child), so the locking breaks. This can oops with a chrooted nfs mount, for
example. Similarly there can be other problems with revalidating a dentry
which is already in nameidata of the path walk.
