Unionfs: unionfs_create needs to revalidate the dentry

We have to read-lock the superblock rwsem, and we have to revalidate the
parent dentry and this one.  A branch-management operation could have taken
place, mid-way through a VFS operation that eventually reaches
unionfs_create().  So we have to ensure consistency, just as we do with the
file operations.
