Reiserfs is the only filesystem that removes IOP_XATTR without also
using a set of dedicated inode operations at the same time that nop all
xattr related inode operations. This means we need to have a IOP_XATTR
check in vfs_listxattr() instead of just being able to check for
-&gt;listxatt() being implemented.

Introduce a dedicated set of nop inode operations that are used when
IOP_XATTR is removed, allowing us to remove that check from
vfs_listxattr(). This in turn allows us to completely decouple POSIX ACLs from
IOP_XATTR.

<title>fs: rename current get acl method</title>

<content type='text'>
The current way of setting and getting posix acls through the generic
xattr interface is error prone and type unsafe. The vfs needs to
interpret and fixup posix acls before storing or reporting it to
userspace. Various hacks exist to make this work. The code is hard to
understand and difficult to maintain in it's current form. Instead of
making this work by hacking posix acls through xattr handlers we are
building a dedicated posix acl api around the get and set inode
operations. This removes a lot of hackiness and makes the codepaths
easier to maintain. A lot of background can be found in [1].

The current inode operation for getting posix acls takes an inode
argument but various filesystems (e.g., 9p, cifs, overlayfs) need access
to the dentry. In contrast to the -&gt;set_acl() inode operation we cannot
simply extend -&gt;get_acl() to take a dentry argument. The -&gt;get_acl()
inode operation is called from:

acl_permission_check()
-&gt; check_acl()
   -&gt; get_acl()

which is part of generic_permission() which in turn is part of
inode_permission(). Both generic_permission() and inode_permission() are
called in the -&gt;permission() handler of various filesystems (e.g.,
overlayfs). So simply passing a dentry argument to -&gt;get_acl() would
amount to also having to pass a dentry argument to -&gt;permission(). We
should avoid this unnecessary change.

So instead of extending the existing inode operation rename it from
-&gt;get_acl() to -&gt;get_inode_acl() and add a -&gt;get_acl() method later that
passes a dentry argument and which filesystems that need access to the
dentry can implement instead of -&gt;get_inode_acl(). Filesystems like cifs
which allow setting and getting posix acls but not using them for
permission checking during lookup can simply not implement
-&gt;get_inode_acl().

This is intended to be a non-functional change.

<title>fs: convert a pile of fsync routines to errseq_t based reporting</title>

<id>3b49c9a1e984b524142afc7536041d8c66877113</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch converts most of the in-kernel filesystems that do writeback
out of the pagecache to report errors using the errseq_t-based
infrastructure that was recently added. This allows them to report
errors once for each open file description.

Most filesystems have a fairly straightforward fsync operation. They
call filemap_write_and_wait_range to write back all of the data and
wait on it, and then (sometimes) sync out the metadata.

For those filesystems this is a straightforward conversion from calling
filemap_write_and_wait_range in their fsync operation to calling
file_write_and_wait_range.
