Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
 "Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing -&gt;d_name/-&gt;d_parent
  locking violations, etc.

  The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
  "has -&gt;d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
  to inode.  Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.

  Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
  several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.

  PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (46 commits)
  saner proc_get_inode() calling conventions
  proc: avoid extra pde_put() in proc_fill_super()
  fs: change return values from -EACCES to -EPERM
  fs/exec.c: make bprm_mm_init() static
  ocfs2/dlm: use GFP_ATOMIC inside a spin_lock
  ocfs2: fix possible use-after-free with AIO
  ocfs2: Fix oops in ocfs2_fast_symlink_readpage() code path
  get_empty_filp()/alloc_file() leave both -&gt;f_pos and -&gt;f_version zero
  target: writev() on single-element vector is pointless
  export kernel_write(), convert open-coded instances
  fs: encode_fh: return FILEID_INVALID if invalid fid_type
  kill f_vfsmnt
  vfs: kill FS_REVAL_DOT by adding a d_weak_revalidate dentry op
  nfsd: handle vfs_getattr errors in acl protocol
  switch vfs_getattr() to struct path
  default SET_PERSONALITY() in linux/elf.h
  ceph: prepopulate inodes only when request is aborted
  d_hash_and_lookup(): export, switch open-coded instances
  9p: switch v9fs_set_create_acl() to inode+fid, do it before d_instantiate()
  9p: split dropping the acls from v9fs_set_create_acl()

Pull signal handling cleanups from Al Viro:
 "This is the first pile; another one will come a bit later and will
  contain SYSCALL_DEFINE-related patches.

   - a bunch of signal-related syscalls (both native and compat)
     unified.

   - a bunch of compat syscalls switched to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE
     (fixing several potential problems with missing argument
     validation, while we are at it)

   - a lot of now-pointless wrappers killed

   - a couple of architectures (cris and hexagon) forgot to save
     altstack settings into sigframe, even though they used the
     (uninitialized) values in sigreturn; fixed.

   - microblaze fixes for delivery of multiple signals arriving at once

   - saner set of helpers for signal delivery introduced, several
     architectures switched to using those."

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal: (143 commits)
  x86: convert to ksignal
  sparc: convert to ksignal
  arm: switch to struct ksignal * passing
  alpha: pass k_sigaction and siginfo_t using ksignal pointer
  burying unused conditionals
  make do_sigaltstack() static
  arm64: switch to generic old sigaction() (compat-only)
  arm64: switch to generic compat rt_sigaction()

  arm64: switch to generic compat rt_sigpending()

Only alpha and sparc are unusual - they have ka_restorer in it.
And nobody needs that exposed to userland.

For architectures using dma_map_ops, dma_mmap_coherent() and
dma_get_sgtable() are provided in &lt;asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h&gt;.

Cris does not use dma_map_ops, hence it should implement them as inline
stubs using dma_common_mmap() and dma_common_get_sgtable().
