    kernfs: combine ino/id lookup functions into kernfs_find_and_get_node_by_id() · fe0f726c
    Tejun Heo authored
    kernfs_find_and_get_node_by_ino() looks the kernfs_node matching the
    specified ino.  On top of that, kernfs_get_node_by_id() and
    kernfs_fh_get_inode() implement full ID matching by testing the rest
    of ID.
    
    On surface, confusingly, the two are slightly different in that the
    latter uses 0 gen as wildcard while the former doesn't - does it mean
    that the latter can't uniquely identify inodes w/ 0 gen?  In practice,
    this is a distinction without a difference because generation number
    starts at 1.  There are no actual IDs with 0 gen, so it can always
    safely used as wildcard.
    
    Let's simplify the code by renaming kernfs_find_and_get_node_by_ino()
    to kernfs_find_and_get_node_by_id(), moving all lookup logics into it,
    and removing now unnecessary kernfs_get_node_by_id().
