Kmem cache passed to constructor is only needed for constructors that are
themselves multiplexeres.  Nobody uses this "feature", nor does anybody uses
passed kmem cache in non-trivial way, so pass only pointer to object.

Non-trivial places are:
	arch/powerpc/mm/init_64.c
	arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c

This is flag day, yes.

Move declarations of some macros, which should be in fact functions to
quotaops.h.  This way they can be later converted to inline functions
because we can now use declarations from quota.h.  Also add necessary
includes of quotaops.h to a few files.

If jfs_iget() fails, we can't call iput() on the returned error.

Stop the JFS filesystem from using iget() and read_inode().  Replace
jfs_read_inode() with jfs_iget(), and call that instead of iget().  jfs_iget()
then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code instead of an
inode in the event of an error.

jfs_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of EINVAL.

Slab constructors currently have a flags parameter that is never used.  And
the order of the arguments is opposite to other slab functions.  The object
pointer is placed before the kmem_cache pointer.

Convert

        ctor(void *object, struct kmem_cache *s, unsigned long flags)

to

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

<id>5ca29607331fe37980dc3b488793ef8b1409b722</id>
<content type='text'>
When the exportfs interface was added the expectation was that filesystems
provide an operation to convert from a file handle to an inode/dentry, but it
kept a backwards compat option that still calls into iget.

Calling into iget from non-filesystem code is very bad, because it gives too
little information to filesystem, and simply crashes if the filesystem doesn't
implement the -&gt;read_inode routine.

Fortunately there are only two filesystems left using this fallback: efs and
jfs.  This patch moves a copy of export_iget to each of those to implement the
get_dentry method.

While this is a temporary increase of lines of code in the kernel it allows
for a much cleaner interface and important code restructuring in later
patches.
