fs: make file_dentry() a simple accessor
file_dentry() is a relic from the days that overlayfs was using files with a "fake" path, meaning, f_path on overlayfs and f_inode on underlying fs. In those days, file_dentry() was needed to get the underlying fs dentry that matches f_inode. Files with "fake" path should not exist nowadays, so make file_dentry() a simple accessor and use an assertion to make sure that file_dentry() was not papering over filesystem bugs.
