Split a piece of fs/namei.c:follow_link() that does obtaining the link
body into a separate function.  follow_link() itself is converted to
calling get_link() and then doing the body traversal (if any).

The next step will expand follow_link() call in link_path_walk()
and this helps to keep the size down...
