This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
const.  Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups

The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
cache clean)

This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on
XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your
luck with it might be different.

This is the fs/ part of the big kfree cleanup patch.

Remove pointless checks for NULL prior to calling kfree() in fs/.

This fixes up the symlink functions for the calling convention change:

 * afs, autofs4, befs, devfs, freevxfs, jffs2, jfs, ncpfs, procfs,
   smbfs, sysvfs, ufs, xfs - prototype change for -&gt;follow_link()
 * befs, smbfs, xfs - same for -&gt;put_link()

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
