namei: simpler treatment of symlinks with nothing other that / in the body
Instead of saving name and branching to OK:, where we'll immediately restore it, and call walk_component() with WALK_PUT|WALK_GET and nd->last_type being LAST_BIND, which is equivalent to put_link(nd), err = 0, we can just treat that the same way we'd treat procfs-style "jump" symlinks - do put_link(nd) and move on.
