kill d_instantiate_no_diralias()
The only user is fuse_create_new_entry(), and there it's used to mitigate the same mkdir/open-by-handle race as in nfs_mkdir(). The same solution applies - unhash the mkdir argument, then call d_splice_alias() and if that returns a reference to preexisting alias, dput() and report success. ->mkdir() argument left unhashed negative with the preexisting alias moved in the right place is just fine from the ->mkdir() callers point of view.
