eventfs: Stop using dcache_readdir() for getdents()

Browse source

The eventfs creates dynamically allocated dentries and inodes. Using the
dcache_readdir() logic for its own directory lookups requires hiding the
cursor of the dcache logic and playing games to allow the dcache_readdir()
to still have access to the cursor while the eventfs saved what it created
and what it needs to release.

Instead, just have eventfs have its own iterate_shared callback function
that will fill in the dent entries. This simplifies the code quite a bit.
