kernfs: Simply by replacing kernfs_deref_open_node() with of_on()

kernfs_node->attr.open is an RCU pointer to kernfs_open_node. However, RCU
dereference is currently only used in kernfs_notify(). Everywhere else,
either we're holding the lock which protects it or know that the
kernfs_open_node is pinned becaused we have a pointer to a kernfs_open_file
which is hanging off of it.

kernfs_deref_open_node() is used for the latter case - accessing
kernfs_open_node from kernfs_open_file. The lifetime and visibility rules
are simple and clear here. To someone who can access a kernfs_open_file, its
kernfs_open_node is pinned and visible through of->kn->attr.open.

Replace kernfs_deref_open_node() which simpler of_on(). The former takes
both @kn and @of and RCU deref @kn->attr.open while sanity checking with
@of. The latter takes @of and uses protected deref on of->kn->attr.open.

As the return value can't be NULL, remove the error handling in the callers
too.

This shouldn't cause any functional changes.
