If this is exported I'd much prefer a EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL. But the only
user so far is shmfs, which can't be modular anyway, so I think we can
drop the exports.

We can't just increase the size of the dentry and inode for everyone
for something that doesn't make any sense for normal file systems.
This needs to move out into structures allocated by the file system
and embedded into or used as the private dentry/inode data.

Please drop all the pointless externs for function prototypes.
