Pull vfs update from Al Viro:

 - big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
   that is moved to fs/file.c

   (BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c.  As it is,
   we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
   file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
   are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
   struct file we used to have way back).

   A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
   disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
   doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore.  A bunch of
   relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
   leak.

 - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
   there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).

 - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
   that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
   switch of fdinfo to seq_file.

 - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
   take that commit than mess with conflicts.  The rest is a separate
   pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.

 - a few misc patches all over the place.  Not all for this cycle,
   there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."

Fix up trivial conflicts in the android binder driver, and some fairly
simple conflicts due to two different changes to the sock_alloc_file()
interface ("take descriptor handling from sock_alloc_file() to callers"
vs "net: Providing protocol type via system.sockprotoname xattr of
/proc/PID/fd entries" adding a dentry name to the socket)

There's no reason to call rcu_barrier() on every
deactivate_locked_super().  We only need to make sure that all delayed rcu
free inodes are flushed before we destroy related cache.

Removing rcu_barrier() from deactivate_locked_super() affects some fast
paths.  E.g.  on my machine exit_group() of a last process in IPC
namespace takes 0.07538s.  rcu_barrier() takes 0.05188s of that time.

After we moved inode_sync_wait() from end_writeback() it doesn't make sense
to call the function end_writeback() anymore. Rename it to clear_inode()
which well says what the function really does - set I_CLEAR flag.

New field of struct super_block - -&gt;s_max_links.  Maximal allowed
value of -&gt;i_nlink or 0; in the latter case all checks still need
to be done in -&gt;link/-&gt;mkdir/-&gt;rename instances.  Note that this
limit applies both to directoris and to non-directories.

bitmap size sanity checks should be done *before* allocating -&gt;s_root;
there their cleanup on failure would be correct.  As it is, we do iput()
on root inode, but leak the root dentry...

<title>vfs: fix the stupidity with i_dentry in inode destructors</title>

<content type='text'>
Seeing that just about every destructor got that INIT_LIST_HEAD() copied into
it, there is no point whatsoever keeping this INIT_LIST_HEAD in inode_init_once();
the cost of taking it into inode_init_always() will be negligible for pipes
and sockets and negative for everything else.  Not to mention the removal of
boilerplate code from -&gt;destroy_inode() instances...
