ecryptfs: get rid of pointless mount references in ecryptfs dentries
->lower_path.mnt has the same value for all dentries on given ecryptfs
instance and if somebody goes for mountpoint-crossing variant where that
would not be true, we can deal with that when it happens (and _not_
with duplicating these reference into each dentry).
As it is, we are better off just sticking a reference into ecryptfs-private
part of superblock and keeping it pinned until ->kill_sb().
That way we can stick a reference to underlying dentry right into ->d_fsdata
of ecryptfs one, getting rid of indirection through struct ecryptfs_dentry_info,
along with the entire struct ecryptfs_dentry_info machinery.
[kudos to Dan Carpenter for spotting a bug in ecryptfs_get_tree() part]
