Subject: [PATCH] fs: Fix warning: 'dirent' is used uninitialized in this function

Using:

gcc (GCC) 4.5.0 20100610 (prerelease)

The following warnings appear:

fs/readdir.c: In function ‘filldir64’:
fs/readdir.c:240:15: warning: ‘dirent’ is used uninitialized in this function
fs/readdir.c: In function ‘filldir’:
fs/readdir.c:155:15: warning: ‘dirent’ is used uninitialized in this function
fs/compat.c: In function ‘compat_filldir64’:
fs/compat.c:1071:11: warning: ‘dirent’ is used uninitialized in this function
fs/compat.c: In function ‘compat_filldir’:
fs/compat.c:984:15: warning: ‘dirent’ is used uninitialized in this function

The warnings are related to the use of the NAME_OFFSET() macro.
Luckily, it appears as though the standard offsetof() macro is what
is being implemented by NAME_OFFSET(), thus we can fix the warning
and use a more standard code construct at the same time.
