scripts/gdb: create linux/vfs.py for VFS related GDB helpers

Patch series "GDB VFS utils".

I've created a couple GDB convenience functions that I found useful when
debugging some VFS issues and figure others might find them useful.  For
instance, they are useful in setting conditional breakpoints on VFS
functions where you only care if the dentry path is a certain value.  I
took the opportunity to create a new "vfs" python module to give VFS
related utilities a home.


This patch (of 2):

This will allow for more VFS specific GDB helpers to be collected in one
place.  Move utils.dentry_name into the vfs modules.  Also a local
variable in proc.py was changed from vfs to mnt to prevent a naming
collision with the new vfs module.
