[RFC][PATCH 02/13] do_fchmodat(): import pathname only once

[Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>]

Convert the user_path_at() call inside a retry loop into getname_flags() +
filename_lookup() + putname() and leave only filename_lookup() inside
the loop.

Since we have the default logics for use of LOOKUP_EMPTY (passed iff
AT_EMPTY_PATH is present in flags), just use getname_uflags() and
don't bother with setting LOOKUP_EMPTY in lookup_flags - getname_uflags()
will pass the right thing to getname_flags() and filename_lookup()
doesn't care about LOOKUP_EMPTY at all.

The things could be further simplified by use of cleanup.h stuff, but
let's not clutter the patch with that.
