In order to add directory delegation support, we need to break
delegations on the parent whenever there is going to be a change in the
directory.

Rename vfs_create as __vfs_create, make it static, and add a new
delegated_inode parameter. Fix do_mknodat to call __vfs_create and wait
for a delegation break if there is one. Add a new exported vfs_create
wrapper that passes in NULL for delegated_inode.

Looks good. Feel free to add:
