[PATCH] dcache: Add helper d_hash_and_lookup

It is very common to hash a dentry and then to call lookup.  If we take fs
specific hash functions into account the full hash logic can get ugly.
Further full_name_hash as an inline function is almost 100 bytes on x86 so
having a non-inline choice in some cases can measurably decrease code size.
