Subject: fs, exportfs: add exportfs_encode_inode_fh() helper

We will need this helper in the next patch to provide a file handle for
inotify marks in /proc/pid/fdinfo output.

The patch is rather providing the way to use inodes directly when dentry
is not available (like in case of inotify system).
