This allows reusing the struct filename for retries, and will also allow
pushing the getname up the stack for a few places to allower for better
handling of kernel space filenames.

You are complicating the callers for no good reason.  NAK.  The same goes
for the previous patch in the series.

Keep the cleanup rules simple.  Sure, I understand wanting to avoid
special rules for early bootstrap, but that's a corner case; don't
make fs/namei.c harder to follow.
