Speaking of v3 - does anybody have objections to the following?
	1) allow ->show_path() to return -EOPNOTSUPP, interpreted as
"fall back to default seq_path(...)"?  E.g. kernfs_sop_show_path()
could return that if there's no ->scops->show_path().
	2) pass the sodding escape set as explicit argument, made
an argument of fs/namespace.c:show_path() as well.
	3) similar for ->show_devname().
	4) ... and to hell with those string_unescape_inplace() calls
in there.
