Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This is a bunch of small changes built against 3.16-rc6.  The most
  significant change for users is the first patch which makes setns
  drmatically faster by removing unneded rcu handling.

  The next chunk of changes are so that "mount -o remount,.." will not
  allow the user namespace root to drop flags on a mount set by the
  system wide root.  Aks this forces read-only mounts to stay read-only,
  no-dev mounts to stay no-dev, no-suid mounts to stay no-suid, no-exec
  mounts to stay no exec and it prevents unprivileged users from messing
  with a mounts atime settings.  I have included my test case as the
  last patch in this series so people performing backports can verify
  this change works correctly.

  The next change fixes a bug in NFS that was discovered while auditing
  nsproxy users for the first optimization.  Today you can oops the
  kernel by reading /proc/fs/nfsfs/{servers,volumes} if you are clever
  with pid namespaces.  I rebased and fixed the build of the
  !CONFIG_NFS_FS case yesterday when a build bot caught my typo.  Given
  that no one to my knowledge bases anything on my tree fixing the typo
  in place seems more responsible that requiring a typo-fix to be
  backported as well.

  The last change is a small semantic cleanup introducing
  /proc/thread-self and pointing /proc/mounts and /proc/net at it.  This
  prevents several kinds of problemantic corner cases.  It is a
  user-visible change so it has a minute chance of causing regressions
  so the change to /proc/mounts and /proc/net are individual one line
  commits that can be trivially reverted.  Unfortunately I lost and
  could not find the email of the original reporter so he is not
  credited.  From at least one perspective this change to /proc/net is a
  refgression fix to allow pthread /proc/net uses that were broken by
  the introduction of the network namespace"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
  proc: Point /proc/mounts at /proc/thread-self/mounts instead of /proc/self/mounts
  proc: Point /proc/net at /proc/thread-self/net instead of /proc/self/net
  proc: Implement /proc/thread-self to point at the directory of the current thread
  proc: Have net show up under /proc/&lt;tgid&gt;/task/&lt;tid&gt;
  NFS: Fix /proc/fs/nfsfs/servers and /proc/fs/nfsfs/volumes
  mnt: Add tests for unprivileged remount cases that have found to be faulty
  mnt: Change the default remount atime from relatime to the existing value
  mnt: Correct permission checks in do_remount
  mnt: Move the test for MNT_LOCK_READONLY from change_mount_flags into do_remount

<content type='text'>
The usage of pid_ns-&gt;child_reaper-&gt;nsproxy-&gt;net_ns in
nfs_server_list_open and nfs_client_list_open is not safe.

/proc for a pid namespace can remain mounted after the all of the
process in that pid namespace have exited.  There are also times
before the initial process in a pid namespace has started or after the
initial process in a pid namespace has exited where
pid_ns-&gt;child_reaper can be NULL or stale.  Making the idiom
pid_ns-&gt;child_reaper-&gt;nsproxy a double whammy of problems.

Luckily all that needs to happen is to move /proc/fs/nfsfs/servers and
/proc/fs/nfsfs/volumes under /proc/net to /proc/net/nfsfs/servers and
/proc/net/nfsfs/volumes and add a symlink from the original location,
and to use seq_open_net as it has been designed.

<title>sched: Allow wait_on_bit_action() functions to support a timeout</title>
<updated>2014-07-16T13:10:41Z</updated>
<author>
<name>NeilBrown</name>
</author>
<published>2014-07-07T05:16:04Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=c1221321b7c25b53204447cff9949a6d5a7ddddc'/>
<id>urn:sha1:c1221321b7c25b53204447cff9949a6d5a7ddddc</id>
<content type='text'>
It is currently not possible for various wait_on_bit functions
to implement a timeout.

While the "action" function that is called to do the waiting
could certainly use schedule_timeout(), there is no way to carry
forward the remaining timeout after a false wake-up.
As false-wakeups a clearly possible at least due to possible
hash collisions in bit_waitqueue(), this is a real problem.

The 'action' function is currently passed a pointer to the word
containing the bit being waited on.  No current action functions
use this pointer.  So changing it to something else will be a
little noisy but will have no immediate effect.

This patch changes the 'action' function to take a pointer to
the "struct wait_bit_key", which contains a pointer to the word
containing the bit so nothing is really lost.

It also adds a 'private' field to "struct wait_bit_key", which
is initialized to zero.

An action function can now implement a timeout with something
like

static int timed_out_waiter(struct wait_bit_key *key)
{
	unsigned long waited;
	if (key-&gt;private == 0) {
		key-&gt;private = jiffies;
		if (key-&gt;private == 0)
			key-&gt;private -= 1;
	}
	waited = jiffies - key-&gt;private;
	if (waited &gt; 10 * HZ)
		return -EAGAIN;
	schedule_timeout(waited - 10 * HZ);
	return 0;
}

If any other need for context in a waiter were found it would be
easy to use -&gt;private for some other purpose, or even extend
"struct wait_bit_key".

My particular need is to support timeouts in nfs_release_page()
to avoid deadlocks with loopback mounted NFS.

While wait_on_bit_timeout() would be a cleaner interface, it
will not meet my need.  I need the timeout to be sensitive to
the state of the connection with the server, which could change.
 So I need to use an 'action' interface.

<content type='text'>
Change nfs_find_and_lock_request so nfs_page_async_flush can handle multiple
requests in a page. There is only one request for a page the first time
nfs_page_async_flush is called, but if a write or commit fails, async_flush
is called again and there may be multiple requests associated with the page.
The solution is to merge all the requests in a page group into a single
request before calling nfs_pageio_add_request.

Rename nfs_find_and_lock_request to nfs_lock_and_join_requests and
change it to first lock all requests for the page, then cancel and merge
all subrequests into the head request.

<title>nfs: merge nfs_pgio_data into _header</title>

<content type='text'>
struct nfs_pgio_data only exists as a member of nfs_pgio_header, but is
passed around everywhere, because there used to be multiple _data structs
per _header. Many of these functions then use the _data to find a pointer
to the _header.  This patch cleans this up by merging the nfs_pgio_data
structure into nfs_pgio_header and passing nfs_pgio_header around instead.

nfs_rw_header was used to allocate an nfs_pgio_header along with an
nfs_pgio_data, because a _header would need at least one _data.

Now there is only ever one nfs_pgio_data for each nfs_pgio_header -- move
it to nfs_pgio_header and get rid of nfs_rw_header.
