Deleting a file from within the kernel

How do you delete a file while in the kernel?

I can find numerous examples of how to open/create/close a file within 
the kernel like http://uqconnect.net/~zzoklan/lkd/using_files.html , but 
I have been unable to find a resource on how to delete a file. I would 
really
like a filp_unlink to go along with the filp_open, filp_close etc.

I know doing any of these things is discouraged, but please don't respond 
with don't do it :-)

Thanks!
Tony
