 * Name: inode_find
 *
 * Description:
 *   This is called from the open() logic to get a reference to the inode
 *   associated with a path.  This is accomplished by calling inode_search().
 *   inode_find() is a simple wrapper around inode_search().  The primary
 *   difference between inode_find() and inode_search is that inode_find()
 *   will lock the inode tree and increment the reference count on the inode.
 *
