__d_add() and __d_move() invoke __d_lookup_done() from within a preemption disabled region. This violates the PREEMPT_RT constraints as the wake up acquires wait_queue_head::lock which is a "sleeping" spinlock on RT. As a preparation for solving this completely, invoke __d_lookup_unhash() from __d_add/move() and handle the wakeup there. This allows to move the spin_lock/unlock(dentry::lock) pair into __d_lookup_done() which debloats the d_lookup_done() inline. Rename __d_lookup_done() -> __d_lookup_wake() to force build failures for OOT code which used __d_lookup_done() and did not adapt. No functional change. Moving the wake up out of the preemption disabled region on RT will be handled in a subsequent change.
