nsfs: generalize ns_get_path() for path resolution with a task
ns_get_path() takes struct task_struct and proc_ns_ops as its parameters. For path resolution directly from a namespace, e.g. based on a networking device's net name space, we need more flexibility. Add a ns_get_path_cb() helper which will allow callers to use any method of obtaining the name space reference. Convert ns_get_path() to use ns_get_path_cb(). Following patches will bring a networking user. CC: Eric W.
