Without ".owner = THIS_MODULE" it is possible to crash the kernel
by unloading the Orangefs module while someone is reading debugfs
files.

We recently refactored the Orangefs debugfs code.
The refactor seemed to trigger dan.carpenter@oracle.com's
static tester to find a possible double-free in the code.

While designing the fix we saw a condition under which the
buffer being freed could also be overflowed.

We also realized how to rebuild the related debugfs file's
"contents" (a string) without deleting and re-creating the file.

This fix should eliminate the possible double-free, the
potential overflow and improve code readability.

Instead use d_fsdata which is the same size.  Hoping to get rid of d_time,
which is used by very few filesystems by this time.

<title>orangefs: user file_inode() where it is due</title>

<content type='text'>
Replace wrong use of file-&gt;f_path.dentry-&gt;d_inode with file_inode(file).
In case orangefs ever finds itself as an overelayfs layer, it would want
to get its own inode and not overlayfs's inode.

DISCLAIMER: I did not test this patch because I do not know how to setup
            an orangefs mount
