Merge tag 'pull-securityfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull securityfs updates from Al Viro:
"Securityfs cleanups and fixes:
- one extra reference is enough to pin a dentry down; no need for
two. Switch to regular scheme, similar to shmem, debugfs, etc. This
fixes a securityfs_recursive_remove() dentry leak, among other
things.
- we need to have the filesystem pinned to prevent the contents
disappearing; what we do not need is pinning it for each file.
Doing that only for files and directories in the root is enough.
- the previous two changes allow us to get rid of the racy kludges in
efi_secret_unlink(), where we can use simple_unlink() instead of
securityfs_remove(). Which does not require unlocking and relocking
the parent, with all deadlocks that invites.
- Make securityfs_remove() take the entire subtree out, turning
securityfs_recursive_remove() into its alias. Makes a lot more
sense for callers and fixes a mount leak, while we are at it.
- Making securityfs_remove() remove the entire subtree allows for
much simpler life in most of the users - efi_secret, ima_fs, evm,
ipe, tmp get cleaner. I hadn't touched apparmor use of securityfs,
but I suspect that it would be useful there as well"

tpm: don't bother with removal of files in directory we'll be removing
ipe: don't bother with removal of files in directory we'll be removing
evm_secfs: clear securityfs interactions
ima_fs: get rid of lookup-by-dentry stuff
ima_fs: don't bother with removal of files in directory we'll be removing
efi_secret: clean securityfs use up
make securityfs_remove() remove the entire subtree
fix locking in efi_secret_unlink()
securityfs: pin filesystem only for objects directly in root
securityfs: don't pin dentries twice, once is enough...
