NFS: Fix the ustat() regression 



Since 2.6.18, the superblock sb->s_root has been a dummy dentry with a
dummy inode. This breaks ustat(), which actually uses sb->s_root in a
vfstat() call.

Fix this by making the s_root a dummy alias to the directory inode that was
used when creating the superblock.
