gfs2: use d_splice_alias() for ->lookup() return value (2026-06-06 17:12:54 -0400)
----------------------------------------------------------------
This series converts a bunch of unidiomatic uses of d_add()
in ->lookup() instances to equivalent uses of d_splice_alias(),
which is the normal mechanism for ->lookup().
