From: Christoph Hellwig <[email protected]>
There's a clear subfunctionality of reconnecting a given dentry to
the main dentry tree in find_exported_dentry, that can be called
both for the dentry we're looking for or it's parent directory.
This patch splits the subfunctionality out into a separate helper to
make the code more readable and document it's intent. As a nice
side-optimization we can avoid getting a superfluous dentry reference
count in the case we need to reconnect a directory on it's own.
