From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
===============
commit 31dec1327e377b6d91a8a6c92b5cd8513939a233 upstream.
There used to be a bunch of tree-walkers in dcache.c, all alike.
try_to_ascend() had been introduced to abstract a piece of logics
duplicated in all of them. These days all these tree-walkers are
implemented via the same iterator (d_walk()), which is the only
remaining caller of try_to_ascend(), so let's fold it back...
