3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit b4f0354e968f5fabd39bc85b99fedae4a97589fe upstream.
The part of old d_free() that dealt with actual freeing of dentry.
Taken out of dentry_kill() into a separate function.
