2d8f30380a [PATCH] sanitize __user_walk_fd() et.al.
* do not pass nameidata; struct path is all the callers want.
* switch to new helpers:
	user_path_at(dfd, pathname, flags, &path)
	user_path(pathname, &path)
	user_lpath(pathname, &path)
	user_path_dir(pathname, &path)  (fail if not a directory)
  The last 3 are trivial macro wrappers for the first one.
* remove nameidata in callers.

2f1936b877 [patch 3/5] vfs: change remove_suid() to file_remove_suid()
All calls to remove_suid() are made with a file pointer, because
(similarly to file_update_time) it is called when the file is written.

Clean up callers by passing in a file instead of a dentry.

e6305c43ed [PATCH] sanitize ->permission() prototype
* kill nameidata * argument; map the 3 bits in ->flags anybody cares
  about to new MAY_... ones and pass with the mask.
* kill redundant gfs2_iop_permission()
* sanitize ecryptfs_permission()
* fix remaining places where ->permission() instances might barf on new
  MAY_... found in mask.

The obvious next target in that direction is permission(9)

51cc50685a SL*B: drop kmem cache argument from constructor
Kmem cache passed to constructor is only needed for constructors that are
themselves multiplexeres.  Nobody uses this "feature", nor does anybody uses
passed kmem cache in non-trivial way, so pass only pointer to object.

Non-trivial places are:
	arch/powerpc/mm/init_64.c
	arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c

This is flag day, yes.

6ab455eeaf [XFS] Fix memory corruption with small buffer reads
When we have multiple buffers in a single page for a blocksize == pagesize
filesystem we might overwrite the page contents if two callers hit it
shortly after each other. To prevent that we need to keep the page locked
until I/O is completed and the page marked uptodate.

Thanks to Eric Sandeen for triaging this bug and finding a reproducible
testcase and Dave Chinner for additional advice.

This should fix kernel.org bz #10421.

978b723712 [XFS] Fix fsync() b0rkage.
xfs_fsync() fails to wait for data I/O completion before checking if the
inode is dirty or clean to decide whether to log the inode or not. This
misses inode size updates when the data flushed by the fsync() is
extending the file.

Hence, like fdatasync(), we need to wait for I/o completion first, then
check the inode for cleanliness. Doing so makes the behaviour of
xfs_fsync() identical for fsync and fdatasync and we *always* use
synchronous semantics if the inode is dirty. Therefore also kill the
differences and remove the unused flags from the xfs_fsync function and
callers.

cfa853e47d [XFS] remove manual lookup from xfs_rename and simplify locking
->rename already gets the target inode passed if it exits. Pass it down to
xfs_rename so that we can avoid looking it up again. Also simplify locking
as the first lock section in xfs_rename can go away now: the isdir is an
invariant over the lifetime of the inode, and new_parent and the nlink
check are namespace topology protected by i_mutex in the VFS. The projid
check needs to move into the second lock section anyway to not be racy.

Also kill the now unused xfs_dir_lookup_int and remove the now-unused
first_locked argumet to xfs_lock_inodes.

126468b115 [XFS] kill xfs_rwlock/xfs_rwunlock
We can just use xfs_ilock/xfs_iunlock instead and get rid of the ugly
bhv_vrwlock_t.

43973964a3 [XFS] kill xfs_get_dir_entry
Instead of of xfs_get_dir_entry use a macro to get the xfs_inode from the
dentry in the callers and grab the reference manually.

Only grab the reference once as it's fine to keep it over the dmapi calls.
(And even that reference is actually superflous in Linux but I'll leave
that for another patch)

a8b3acd57e [XFS] vnode cleanup in xfs_fs_subr.c
Cleanup the unneeded intermediate vnode step in the flushing helpers and
go directly from the xfs_inode to the struct address_space.

db0bb7baa1 [XFS] cleanup xfs_vn_mknod
- use proper goto based unwinding instead of the current mess of
  multiple conditionals
- rename ip to inode because that's the normal convention for Linux
  inodes while ip is the convention for xfs_inodes
- remove unlikely checks for the default_acl - branches marked unlikely
  might lead to extreme branch bredictor slowdons if taken and for some
  workloads a default acl is quite common
- properly indent the switch statements
- remove xfs_has_fs_struct as nfsd has a fs_struct in any semi-recent
  kernel

a3f74ffb6d [XFS] Don't block pdflush when writing back inodes
When pdflush is writing back inodes, it can get stuck on inode cluster
buffers that are currently under I/O. This occurs when we write data to
multiple inodes in the same inode cluster at the same time.

Effectively, delayed allocation marks the inode dirty during the data
writeback. Hence if the inode cluster was flushed during the writeback of
the first inode, the writeback of the second inode will block waiting for
the inode cluster write to complete before writing it again for the newly
dirtied inode.

Basically, we want to avoid this from happening so we don't block pdflush
and slow down all of writeback. Hence we introduce a non-blocking async
inode flush flag that pdflush uses. If this flag is set, we use
non-blocking operations (e.g. try locks) whereever we can to avoid
blocking or extra I/O being issued.
