Subject[git pull] vfs_mkobj() and mqueue-related stuff
	mqueue and bpf go through rather painful and similar contortions to
create objects in their dentry trees. Provide a primitive for doing that
without abusing ->mknod(), switch bpf and mqueue to it.
Another mqueue-related thing that has ended up in that branch is
on-demand creation of internal mount (based upon the work of Giuseppe Scrivano).

The following changes since commit ae64f9bd1d3621b5e60d7363bc20afb46aede215:
