mnt_want_write() is always called before lookup_hash_update(), so we can
simplify the code by moving the call into that function.
If lookup_hash_update() succeeds, it now will have claimed the
want_write lock. If it fails, the want_write lock isn't held.
Also lookup_hash_update() now receives a 'struct path'.
Note that when creating a name, any error from mnt_want_write() does not
get reported unless there is no other error. For unlink/rmdir though,
an error from mnt_want_write() is immediately fatal - overriding ENOENT
for example. This behaviour seems strange, but this patch is careful to
preserve it.
