sysfs: use ilookup5() instead of ilookup5_nowait()
As inode creation is protected by sysfs_mutex, ilookup5_nowait() always either fails to find at all or finds one which is fully initialized, so using ilookup5_nowait() or ilookup5() doesn't make any difference. Switch to ilookup5() as it's planned to be removed. This change also makes lookup return value handling a bit simpler. This change was suggested by Al Viro.
