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)

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (72 commits)
  MAX_LFS_FILESIZE should be a loff_t
  compat: fs: Generic compat_sys_sendfile implementation
  fs: push rcu_barrier() from deactivate_locked_super() to filesystems

Callback gets struct file *, descriptor number and const void *
argument passed to iterator.  It is called with files-&gt;file_lock
held, so it is not allowed to block.

tty_io, netprio_cgroup and selinux flush_unauthorized_files()

Added file /sys/devices/.../tty/ttySX/uartclk to allow reading
uartclk value in struct uart_port in serial_core via sysfs.

tty_register_device() has been generalized and refactored in order
to add support for setting drvdata and attribute_group to the device.

At commit 07d106d0, Linus pointed out that ENOIOCTLCMD should be
translated as ENOTTY to user mode.
For example:
	fd = open("/dev/tty", O_RDWR);
	ioctl(fd, -1, &amp;argp);

then the errno should be ENOTTY but not EINVAL.

And if not, complain loudly. None in-kernel module should trigger
that, but let us find out for sure. On the other hand, all the
out-of-tree modules will hit that. Give them some time (maybe one
release) to catch up.

We need the /dev/ node not to be available before we call
tty_register_device. Otherwise we might race with open and
tty_struct-&gt;port might not be available at that time.

This is not an issue now, but would be a problem after "TTY: use
tty_port_register_device" is applied.

This allows drivers like ttyprintk to avoid hacks to create an
unnumbered node in /dev. It used to set TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_DEV in
flags and call device_create on its own. That is incorrect, because
TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_DEV may be set only if tty_register_device is
called explicitly.

So now, that we have flags and know everything needed, keep a promise
and move all the tables and ports allocation from tty_register_driver
to tty_alloc_driver.

Not only that it makes sense, but we need this for
tty_port_link_device which needs tty_driver-&gt;ports but is to be called
before tty_register_driver.
