vfs_create() ignores everything outside of 16bit subset of its
mode argument; switching it to umode_t is obviously equivalent
and it's the only caller of the method

vfs_mkdir() gets int, but immediately drops everything that might not
fit into umode_t and that's the only caller of -&gt;mkdir()...

Seeing that just about every destructor got that INIT_LIST_HEAD() copied into
it, there is no point whatsoever keeping this INIT_LIST_HEAD in inode_init_once();
the cost of taking it into inode_init_always() will be negligible for pipes
and sockets and negative for everything else.  Not to mention the removal of
boilerplate code from -&gt;destroy_inode() instances...

The label 'out_bdi' should be followed by bdi_destroy() instead of
fput() which should be after the 'out_fput' label.

If bdi_setup_and_register() fails then jump to the 'out_fput' label
instead of the 'out_bdi' one.

If fget(data.info_fd) fails then jump to the previously fixed 'out_bdi'
label to call bdi_destroy() otherwise the bdi object will not be
destroyed.

Compile tested only.

<title>fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into -&gt;fsync() handlers</title>

Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called
in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and
the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the -&gt;fsync() handlers.  Some
file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and
ocfs2.  For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make
sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each
individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.
Thanks,
