In 'ubifs_replay_journal()' we allocate 'sbuf' for scanning the log.
However, we already have 'c-&gt;sbuf' for these purposes, so do not
allocate yet another one. This reduces UBIFS memory consumption while
recovering.

This is a bug-fix: when we unmount, and we are currently in R/O
mode because of an error - we do not sync write-buffers, which
means we also do not cancel write-buffer timers we may possibly
have armed. This patch fixes the issue.

The issue can easily be reproduced by enabling UBIFS failure debug
mode (echo 4 &gt; /sys/module/ubifs/parameters/debug_tsts) and
unmounting as soon as a failure happen. At some point the system
oopses because we have an armed hrtimer but UBIFS is unmounted
already.

<content type='text'>
This is a clean-up patch which:

1. Removes explicite 'hrtimer_cancel()' after 'ubifs_wbuf_sync()' in
   'ubifs_remount_ro()', because the timers will be canceled by
   'ubifs_wbuf_sync()', no need to cancel them for the second time.
2. Remove "if (c-&gt;jheads)" check from 'ubifs_put_super()', because
   at journal heads must always be allocated there, since we checked
   earlier that we were mounted R/W, and the olny situation when
   journal heads are not allocated is when mounter or re-mounted R/O.

<title>llseek: automatically add .llseek fop</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6038f373a3dc1f1c26496e60b6c40b164716f07e</id>
<content type='text'>
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

.get_sb is called on mounts with automatic fs detection too, so this
function should print an error if it cannot read the superblock in
debug mode only (new behaviour conforms the other fs types)

<title>UBIFS: introduce new flags for RO mounts</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2ef13294d29bcfb306e0d360f1b97f37b647b0c0</id>
<content type='text'>
Commit 2fde99cb55fb9d9b88180512a5e8a5d939d27fec "UBIFS: mark VFS SB RO too"
introduced regression. This commit made UBIFS set the 'MS_RDONLY' flag in the
VFS superblock when it switches to R/O mode due to an error. This was done
to make VFS show the R/O UBIFS flag in /proc/mounts.

However, several places in UBIFS relied on the 'MS_RDONLY' flag and assume this
flag can only change when we re-mount. For example, 'ubifs_put_super()'.

This patch introduces new UBIFS flag - 'c-&gt;ro_mount' which changes only when
we re-mount, and preserves the way UBIFS was originally mounted (R/W or R/O).
This allows us to de-initialize UBIFS cleanly in 'ubifs_put_super()'.

This patch also changes all 'ubifs_assert(!c-&gt;ro_media)' assertions to
'ubifs_assert(!c-&gt;ro_media &amp;&amp; !c-&gt;ro_mount)', because we never should write
anything if the FS was mounter R/O.

All the places where we test for 'MS_RDONLY' flag in the VFS SB were changed
and now we test the 'c-&gt;ro_mount' flag instead, because it preserves the
original UBIFS mount type, unlike the 'MS_RDONLY' flag.
