Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull VFS fixes from Al Viro:
"A bunch of assorted fixes, most of them followups to overlayfs merge"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
ovl: initialize ->is_cursor
Return short read or 0 at end of a raw device, not EIO
isofs: don't bother with ->d_op for normal case
isofs_cmp(): we'll never see a dentry for . or ..
overlayfs: fix lockdep misannotation
ovl: fix check for cursor
overlayfs: barriers for opening upper-layer directory
rcu: Provide counterpart to rcu_dereference() for non-RCU situations
staging: android: logger: Fix log corruption regression
