The combination of spinlock_t lock and seqcount_spinlock_t seq
in struct fs_struct is an open-coded seqlock_t (see linux/seqlock_types.h).
Combine and switch to equivalent seqlock_t primitives. AFAICS,
that does end up with the same sequence of underlying operations in all
cases.
While we are at it, get_fs_pwd() is open-coded verbatim in
get_path_from_fd(); rather than applying conversion to it, replace with
the call of get_fs_pwd() there. Not worth splitting the commit for that,
IMO...
A bit of historical background - conversion of seqlock_t to
use of seqcount_spinlock_t happened several months after the same
had been done to struct fs_struct; switching fs_struct to seqlock_t
could've been done immediately after that, but it looks like nobody
had gotten around to that until now.
