vfs: factor out lookup_mountpoint from new_mountpoint
I am shortly going to add a new user of struct mountpoint that needs to look up existing entries but does not want to create a struct mountpoint if one does not exist. Therefore to keep the code simple and easy to read split out lookup_mountpoint from new_mountpoint. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
