don't bother with path_get()/path_put() in unix_open_file()

Once unix_sock ->path is set, we are guaranteed that its ->path will remain
unchanged (and pinned) until the socket is closed.  OTOH, dentry_open()
does not modify the path passed to it.

IOW, there's no need to copy unix_sk(sk)->path in unix_open_file() - we
can just pass it to dentry_open() and be done with that.
