[PATCH] sanitize __user_walk_fd() et.al.

* do not pass nameidata; struct path is all the callers want.
* switch to new helpers:
user_path_at(dfd, pathname, flags, &path)
user_path(pathname, &path)
user_lpath(pathname, &path)
user_path_dir(pathname, &path)  (fail if not a directory)
  The last 3 are trivial macro wrappers for the first one.
* remove nameidata in callers.
