Simplifying ->d_name audits, easy part.

Turn dentry->d_name into an anon union of const struct qsrt (d_name
 itself) and a writable alias (__d_name).  With constification of some
 struct qstr * arguments of functions that get &dentry->d_name passed
 to them, that ends up with all modifications provably done only in
 fs/dcache.c (and a fairly small part of it).
 
 Any new places doing modifications will be easy to find - grep for
 __d_name will suffice.
