  reiserfs_add_entry(): get rid of pointless namelen checks
  __ocfs2_add_entry(), ocfs2_prepare_dir_for_insert(): namelen checks
  ext4_add_entry(): ->d_name.len is never 0
  befs: d_obtain_alias(ERR_PTR(...)) will do the right thing
  affs: d_obtain_alias(ERR_PTR(...)) will do the right thing
  /proc/sys: use d_splice_alias() calling conventions to simplify failure exits
  hostfs: use d_splice_alias() calling conventions to simplify failure exits
  udf_fiiter_add_entry(): check for zero ->d_name.len is bogus...
  udf: d_obtain_alias(ERR_PTR(...)) will do the right thing...
  udf: d_splice_alias() will do the right thing on ERR_PTR() inode
  nfsd: kill stale comment about simple_fill_super() requirements
  bfs_add_entry(): get rid of pointless ->d_name.len checks
