H A Dnamei.c9b5858e9 Mon Jul 09 15:33:23 CDT 2018 Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> allow link_path_walk() to take ERR_PTR()

There is a check for IS_ERR(name) immediately upstream of each call
of link_path_walk(name, nd), with positives treated as if link_path_walk()
failed with PTR_ERR(name). Taking that check into link_path_walk() itself
simplifies things nicely.
