Pull qstr constification updates from Al Viro:
 "Fairly self-contained bunch - surprising lot of places passes struct
  qstr * as an argument when const struct qstr * would suffice; it
  complicates analysis for no good reason.

  I'd prefer to feed that separately from the assorted fixes (those are
  in #for-linus and with somewhat trickier topology)"

Including blkdev_direct_IO and dax_do_io.  It has to be ki_pos to actually
work, so eliminate the superflous argument.

<title>mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros</title>
<updated>2016-04-04T17:41:08Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=09cbfeaf1a5a67bfb3201e0c83c810cecb2efa5a'/>
<id>urn:sha1:09cbfeaf1a5a67bfb3201e0c83c810cecb2efa5a</id>
<content type='text'>
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - &lt;foo&gt; &lt;&lt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - &lt;foo&gt; &gt;&gt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -&gt; PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -&gt; get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -&gt; put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

inode_foo(inode) being mutex_foo(&amp;inode-&gt;i_mutex).

Please, use those for access to -&gt;i_mutex; over the coming cycle
-&gt;i_mutex will become rwsem, with -&gt;lookup() done with it held
only shared.
