Pull namespace bugfixes from Eric Biederman:
 "This tree includes a partial revert for "fs: Limit sys_mount to only
  request filesystem modules." When I added the new style module aliases
  to the filesystems I deleted the old ones.  A bad move.  It turns out
  that distributions like Arch linux use module aliases when
  constructing ramdisks.  Which meant ultimately that an ext3 filesystem
  mounted with ext4 would not result in the ext4 module being put into
  the ramdisk.

  The other change in this tree adds a handful of filesystem module
  alias I simply failed to add the first time.  Which inconvinienced a
  few folks using cifs.

  I don't want to inconvinience folks any longer than I have to so here
  are these trivial fixes."

Somehow I failed to add the MODULE_ALIAS_FS for cifs, hostfs, hpfs,
squashfs, and udf despite what I thought were my careful checks :(

Add them now.

hostfs: fix a not needed double check

2013-03-11T09:08:02+00:00

With the commit 3be2be0a32c18b0fd6d623cda63174a332ca0de1 we removed vmtruncate,
but actaully there is no need to call inode_newsize_ok() because the checks are
already done in inode_change_ok() at the begin of the function.

Pull UML changes from Richard Weinberger:
 "UML receives this time only cleanups.

  The most outstanding change is the 'include "foo.h"' do 'include
  ' conversion done by Al Viro.

  It touches many files, that's why the diffstat is rather big."

don't pass nameidata to ->create()

2012-07-14T12:34:47+00:00

boolean "does it have to be exclusive?" flag is passed instead;
Local filesystem should just ignore it - the object is guaranteed
not to be there yet.
