eventfd: fold eventfd_ctx_get() into eventfd_ctx_fileget()

eventfd_ctx_get() is not used outside of eventfd.c, so unexport it and fold it into eventfd_ctx_fileget(). (eventfd_ctx_get() was apparently added years ago for KVM irqfd's, but was never used.) Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <[email protected]>
