d_make_discardable(): warn if given a non-persistent dentry

At this point there are very few call chains that might lead to
d_make_discardable() on a dentry that hadn't been made persistent:
calls of simple_unlink() and simple_rmdir() in configfs and
apparmorfs.

Both filesystems do pin (part of) their contents in dcache, but
they are currently playing very unusual games with that.  Converting
them to more usual patterns might be possible, but it's definitely
going to be a long series of changes in both cases.

For now the easiest solution is to have both stop using simple_unlink()
and simple_rmdir() - that allows to make d_make_discardable() warn
when given a non-persistent dentry.

Rather than giving them full-blown private copies (with calls of
d_make_discardable() replaced with dput()), let's pull the parts of
simple_unlink() and simple_rmdir() that deal with timestamps and link
counts into separate helpers (__simple_unlink() and __simple_rmdir()
resp.) and have those used by configfs and apparmorfs.
