The new helper function is to check whether the class file is existing
or not. This function will be used by networking stack to
check "/sys/class/net/*" file.

v1 -> v2:
- Implement class_has_file_ns() instead of class_find_and_get_file_ns().
- Change headline.
- Add kernel documentation comment.

Why would you use this? And what happens if the file shows up, or goes
away, instantly after this call is made?
This feels very broken.

Ah, I missed considering other usescases.
If other users don't use locks, this function would return incorrect
information. The problem seems to become from that this function
calls kernfs_put().
Thanks a lot!
