Checking buf-&gt;flags should be done before the pipe_buf_release() is called
on the pipe buffer, since releasing the buffer might modify the flags.

This is exactly what page_cache_pipe_buf_release() does, and which results
in the same VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageLRU(page)) that the original patch was
trying to fix.

Pull gfs2 mmap + page fault deadlocks fixes from Andreas Gruenbacher:
 "Functions gfs2_file_read_iter and gfs2_file_write_iter are both
  accessing the user buffer to write to or read from while holding the
  inode glock.

  In the most basic deadlock scenario, that buffer will not be resident
  and it will be mapped to the same file. Accessing the buffer will
  trigger a page fault, and gfs2 will deadlock trying to take the same
  inode glock again while trying to handle that fault.

  Fix that and similar, more complex scenarios by disabling page faults
  while accessing user buffers. To make this work, introduce a small
  amount of new infrastructure and fix some bugs that didn't trigger so
  far, with page faults enabled"

It is possible to trigger a crash by splicing anon pipe bufs to the fuse
device.

The reason for this is that anon_pipe_buf_release() will reuse buf-&gt;page if
the refcount is 1, but that page might have already been stolen and its
flags modified (e.g. PG_lru added).

This happens in the unlikely case of fuse_dev_splice_write() getting around
to calling pipe_buf_release() after a page has been stolen, added to the
page cache and removed from the page cache.

Fix by calling pipe_buf_release() right after the page was inserted into
the page cache.  In this case the page has an elevated refcount so any
release function will know that the page isn't reusable.

Add flag returned by FUSE_OPEN and FUSE_CREATE requests to avoid flushing
data cache on close.

Different filesystems implement -&gt;flush() is different ways:
 - Most disk filesystems do not implement -&gt;flush() at all
 - Some network filesystem (e.g. nfs) flush local write cache of
   FMODE_WRITE file and send a "flush" command to server
 - Some network filesystem (e.g. cifs) flush local write cache of
   FMODE_WRITE file without sending an additional command to server

FUSE flushes local write cache of ANY file, even non FMODE_WRITE
and sends a "flush" command to server (if server implements it).

The FUSE implementation of -&gt;flush() seems over agressive and
arbitrary and does not make a lot of sense when writeback caching is
disabled.

Instead of deciding on another arbitrary implementation that makes
sense, leave the choice of per-file flush behavior in the hands of
the server.

fuse_update_attributes() refreshes metadata for internal use.

Each use needs a particular set of attributes to be refreshed, but
currently that cannot be expressed and all but atime are refreshed.

Add a mask argument, which lets fuse_update_get_attr() to decide based on
the cache_mask and the inval_mask whether a GETATTR call is needed or not.

When deciding to send a GETATTR request take into account the cache mask
(which attributes are always valid).  The cache mask takes precedence over
the invalid mask.

This results in the GETATTR request not being sent unnecessarily.

If writeback_cache is enabled, then the size, mtime and ctime attributes of
regular files are always valid in the kernel's cache.  They are retrieved
from userspace only when the inode is freshly looked up.

Add a more generic "cache_mask", that indicates which attributes are
currently valid in cache.

This patch doesn't change behavior.
