[PATCH 47/75] sysfs: simply sysfs_get_dentry

Greg Kroah-Hartman

From: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>

Now that we know the sysfs tree structure cannot change under us and
sysfs shadow support is dropped, sysfs_get_dentry() can be simplified
greatly. It can just look up from the root and there's no need to
retry on failure.
