readdir: Introduce dirent_size()
In several places in readdir.c there are calculations of the total size of a dirent, which contains a few fixed fields plus a name field with variable size. To add fun every dirent is of a slightly different type: - struct old_linux_dirent - struct linux_dirent - struct linux_dirent64 - struct compat_old_linux_dirent - struct compat_linux_dirent Replace ugly size calculation by a macro called dirent_size() which calculates the size of the structure based on the pointed type and the name field len.
