While the dentry operation kernfs_dop_revalidate() is grouped with
dentry type functions it also has a strong affinity to the inode
operation ->lookup().

In order to take advantage of the VFS negative dentry caching that
can be used to reduce path lookup overhead on non-existent paths it
will need to call kernfs_find_ns(). So, to avoid a forward declaration,
move it to be near kernfs_iop_lookup().

There's no functional change from this patch.

Does this patch compile independently?

During the code movement  kernfs_active is replaced
by kernfs_active_read which does not exist yet.

Doubt it.

Oops, that was a consequence of reordering the series which I
didn't catch.

I'll fix that when I post a v5 which I'm going to have to do.

Thanks for looking at this Eric,
