Cover letter [PATCH 0/7] struct path related cleanups of d_path() code

Here are some more struct path cleanups. This patch series changes d_path() to take a struct path argument. The existing users are changed to give struct path more deeply into the call chain. In some structures I need to replace existing <dentry,vfsmount> pairs and embed a struct path instead.

Andreas,
since JJ just posted the AppArmor related d_path() patches I don't include them here too.

Comments?
