dcache.c: create helper function for duplicated functionality
This creates a helper function for he "try to ascend into the parent directory" case, which was written out in triplicate before. With all the locking and subtle sequence number stuff, we really don't want to duplicate that kind of code. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
