[PATCH v2] fs: add file_dentry()

This series fixes bugs in nfs and ext4 due to 4bacc9c9234c ("overlayfs: Make f_path always point to the overlay and f_inode to the underlay"). Regular files opened on overlayfs will result in the file being opened on the underlying filesystem, while f_path points to the overlayfs mount/dentry.
