The iput() from atomic context was a bad idea: if after igrab() somebody
else calls iput() and we left with the last inode reference, our iput()
would lead to inode eviction and therefore sleeping.

This patch should fix the situation.

Pull partial readlink cleanups from Miklos Szeredi.

This is the uncontroversial part of the readlink cleanup patch-set that
simplifies the default readlink handling.

Miklos and Al are still discussing the rest of the series.

* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs:
  vfs: make generic_readlink() static
  vfs: remove ".readlink = generic_readlink" assignments
  vfs: default to generic_readlink()
  vfs: replace calling i_op-&gt;readlink with vfs_readlink()

This rather complicated function can be better implemented as an
iterator.  It has only one caller, so move the functionality to the only
place that needs it.  Update the test suite to follow the same pattern.

<title>radix-tree: improve multiorder iterators</title>

<content type='text'>
This fixes several interlinked problems with the iterators in the
presence of multiorder entries.

1. radix_tree_iter_next() would only advance by one slot, which would
   result in the iterators returning the same entry more than once if
   there were sibling entries.

2. radix_tree_next_slot() could return an internal pointer instead of
   a user pointer if a tagged multiorder entry was immediately followed by
   an entry of lower order.

3. radix_tree_next_slot() expanded to a lot more code than it used to
   when multiorder support was compiled in.  And I wasn't comfortable with
   entry_to_node() being in a header file.

Fixing radix_tree_iter_next() for the presence of sibling entries
necessarily involves examining the contents of the radix tree, so we now
need to pass 'slot' to radix_tree_iter_next(), and we need to change the
calling convention so it is called *before* dropping the lock which
protects the tree.  Also rename it to radix_tree_iter_resume(), as some
people thought it was necessary to call radix_tree_iter_next() each time
around the loop.

radix_tree_next_slot() becomes closer to how it looked before multiorder
support was introduced.  It only checks to see if the next entry in the
chunk is a sibling entry or a pointer to a node; this should be rare
enough that handling this case out of line is not a performance impact
(and such impact is amortised by the fact that the entry we just
processed was a multiorder entry).  Also, radix_tree_next_slot() used to
force a new chunk lookup for untagged entries, which is more expensive
than the out of line sibling entry skipping.

<title>lib: radix-tree: update callback for changing leaf nodes</title>

Support handing __radix_tree_replace() a callback that gets invoked for
all leaf nodes that change or get freed as a result of the slot
replacement, to assist users tracking nodes with node-&gt;private_list.

This prepares for putting page cache shadow entries into the radix tree
root again and drastically simplifying the shadow tracking.

Support handing __radix_tree_replace() a callback that gets invoked for
all leaf nodes that change or get freed as a result of the slot
replacement, to assist users tracking nodes with node-&gt;private_list.

This prepares for putting page cache shadow entries into the radix tree
root again and drastically simplifying the shadow tracking.

<title>lib: radix-tree: native accounting of exceptional entries</title>

The way the page cache is sneaking shadow entries of evicted pages into
the radix tree past the node entry accounting and tracking them manually
in the upper bits of node-&gt;count is fraught with problems.

These shadow entries are marked in the tree as exceptional entries,
which are a native concept to the radix tree.  Maintain an explicit
counter of exceptional entries in the radix tree node.  Subsequent
patches will switch shadow entry tracking over to that counter.

DAX and shmem are the other users of exceptional entries.  Since slot
replacements that change the entry type from regular to exceptional must
now be accounted, introduce a __radix_tree_replace() function that does
replacement and accounting, and switch DAX and shmem over.

The increase in radix tree node size is temporary.  A followup patch
switches the shadow tracking to this new scheme and we'll no longer need
the upper bits in node-&gt;count and shrink that back to one byte.

<title>shmem: fix compilation warnings on unused functions</title>

Compiling shmem.c with SHMEM and TRANSAPRENT_HUGE_PAGECACHE enabled
raises warnings on two unused functions when CONFIG_TMPFS and
CONFIG_SYSFS are both disabled:

  mm/shmem.c:390:20: warning: `shmem_format_huge' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
   static const char *shmem_format_huge(int huge)
                      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  mm/shmem.c:373:12: warning: `shmem_parse_huge' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
   static int shmem_parse_huge(const char *str)
               ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A conditional compilation on tmpfs or sysfs removes the warnings.

<title>shmem: avoid maybe-uninitialized warning</title>

After enabling -Wmaybe-uninitialized warnings, we get a false-postive
warning for shmem:

  mm/shmem.c: In function `shmem_getpage_gfp':
  include/linux/spinlock.h:332:21: error: `info' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

This can be easily avoided, since the correct 'info' pointer is known at
the time we first enter the function, so we can simply move the
initialization up.  Moving it before the first label avoids the warning
and lets us remove two later initializations.

Note that the function is so hard to read that it not only confuses the
compiler, but also most readers and without this patch it could\ easily
break if one of the 'goto's changed.
