commit 073931017b49d9458aa351605b43a7e34598caef upstream.

When file permissions are modified via chmod(2) and the user is not in
the owning group or capable of CAP_FSETID, the setgid bit is cleared in
inode_change_ok().  Setting a POSIX ACL via setxattr(2) sets the file
permissions as well as the new ACL, but doesn't clear the setgid bit in
a similar way; this allows to bypass the check in chmod(2).  Fix that.

<title>jfs: fix readdir cookie incompatibility with NFSv4</title>

<content type='text'>
NFSv4 reserves readdir cookie values 0-2 for special entries (. and ..),
but jfs allows a value of 2 for a non-special entry. This incompatibility
can result in the nfs client reporting a readdir loop.

This patch doesn't change the value stored internally, but adds one to
the value exposed to the iterate method.

Pull ext4 update from Ted Ts'o:
 "Lots of bug fixes, cleanups and optimizations.  In the bug fixes
  category, of note is a fix for on-line resizing file systems where the
  block size is smaller than the page size (i.e., file systems 1k blocks
  on x86, or more interestingly file systems with 4k blocks on Power or
  ia64 systems.)

  In the cleanup category, the ext4's punch hole implementation was
  significantly improved by Lukas Czerner, and now supports bigalloc
  file systems.  In addition, Jan Kara significantly cleaned up the
  write submission code path.  We also improved error checking and added
  a few sanity checks.

  In the optimizations category, two major optimizations deserve
  mention.  The first is that ext4_writepages() is now used for
  nodelalloc and ext3 compatibility mode.  This allows writes to be
  submitted much more efficiently as a single bio request, instead of
  being sent as individual 4k writes into the block layer (which then
  relied on the elevator code to coalesce the requests in the block
  queue).  Secondly, the extent cache shrink mechanism, which was
  introduce in 3.9, no longer has a scalability bottleneck caused by the
  i_es_lru spinlock.  Other optimizations include some changes to reduce
  CPU usage and to avoid issuing empty commits unnecessarily."

Instances either don't look at it at all (the majority of cases) or
only want it to find the superblock (which can be had as dentry-&gt;d_sb).
A few cases that want more are actually safe with dentry-&gt;d_inode -
the only precaution needed is the check that it hadn't been replaced with
NULL by rmdir() or by overwriting rename(), which case should be simply
treated as cache miss.
