[8/9] XFS: allow follow_link to often succeed in RCU-walk.

Commit Message

NeilBrown March 5, 2015, 5:21 a.m. UTC

If LOOKUP_RCU is set, use GFP_ATOMIC rather than GFP_KERNEL,
and try to get the ilock without blocking.

When these succeed, follow_link() can succeed without dropping
out of RCU-walk.
