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

_have_ anything resembling a real dentry on one of the paths to it.

for one thing, it doesn't (and shouldn't) use anything else from dentry;
for another, on some call chains the dentry is fake and should
be eliminated completely.

In call to f2fs_delete_entry, 'dir' time modification code is put
at two places.
So, remove the redundant code for timing update.

This patch is intended to unify string length declarations and usage.
There are number of calls to strlen which return size_t object.
The size of this object depends on compiler if it will be bigger,
equal or even smaller than an unsigned int

<title>f2fs: fix handling errors got by f2fs_write_inode</title>

Ruslan reported that f2fs hangs with an infinite loop in f2fs_sync_file():

	while (sync_node_pages(sbi, inode-&gt;i_ino, &amp;wbc) == 0)
		f2fs_write_inode(inode, NULL);

The reason was revealed that the cold flag is not set even thought this inode is
a normal file. Therefore, sync_node_pages() skips to write node blocks since it
only writes cold node blocks.

The cold flag is stored to the node_footer in node block, and whenever a new
node page is allocated, it is set according to its file type, file or directory.

But, after sudden-power-off, when recovering the inode page, f2fs doesn't recover
its cold flag.

So, let's assign the cold flag in more right places.

One more thing:
If f2fs_write_inode() returns an error due to whatever situations, there would
be no dirty node pages so that sync_node_pages() returns zero.
(i.e., zero means nothing was written.)
