Merge branch 'work.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull vfs updates from Al Viro: "Assorted cleanups and fixes. Probably the most interesting part long-term is ->d_init() - that will have a bunch of followups in (at least) ceph and lustre, but we'll need to sort the barrier-related rules before it can get used for really non-trivial stuff. Another fun thing is the merge of ->d_iput() callers (dentry_iput() and dentry_unlink_inode()) and a bunch of ->d_compare() ones (all except the one in __d_lookup_lru())" * 'work.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (26 commits) fs/dcache.c: avoid soft-lockup in dput() vfs: new d_init method vfs: Update lookup_dcache() comment bdev: get rid of ->bd_inodes Remove last traces of ->sync_page new helper: d_same_name() dentry_cmp(): use lockless_dereference() instead of smp_read_barrier_depends() vfs: clean up documentation vfs: document ->d_real() vfs: merge .d_select_inode() into .d_real() unify dentry_iput() and dentry_unlink_inode() binfmt_misc: ->s_root is not going anywhere drop redundant ->owner initializations ufs: get rid of redundant checks orangefs: constify inode_operations missed comment updates from ->direct_IO() prototype change file_inode(f)->i_mapping is f->f_mapping trim fsnotify hooks a bit 9p: new helper - v9fs_parent_fid() debugfs: ->d_parent is never NULL or negative ...
