Subject: libfs: add path_from_stashed()

Add a helper for both nsfs and pidfs to reuse an already stashed dentry
or to add and stash a new dentry.

+ * @fops:       file operations to use

+ *
+ * The function tries to retrieve a stashed dentry from @stashed. If the dentry
+ * is still valid then it will be reused. If the dentry isn't able the function
+ * will allocate a new dentry and inode. It will then try to update @stashed
+ * with the newly added dentry. If it fails -EAGAIN is returned and the caller
+ * my retry.
+ *
+ * Special-purpose helper for nsfs and pidfs.
+ *
+ * Return: If 0 or an error is returned the caller can be sure that @data must
+ *         be cleaned up. If 1 or -EAGAIN is returned @data is owned by the
+ *         filesystem.
