    fh_compose currently consumes a reference to the dentry but not the export
    point.  This is both inconsistent and confusing.
    
    It is better if a routine like this doesn't consume reference points, so with
    this patch, it doesn't.  This fixes a couple of very subtle and unusual
    reference counting errors.
