You do realize that there is no such thing as *the* pathname of dentry, right? The same filesystem may be mounted in any number of places, some of which might be visible in a given namespace (including "none of them" - and you are not even guaranteed that they are visible in any namespace at all). It's not "bypassed", it's "inapplicable and deeply flawed in general".
