Add a .show_options super operation to affs.

Use generic_show_options() and save the complete option string in
affs_fill_super() and affs_remount().

<title>iget: stop AFFS from using iget() and read_inode()</title>

<content type='text'>
Stop the AFFS filesystem from using iget() and read_inode().  Replace
affs_read_inode() with affs_iget(), and call that instead of iget().
affs_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code
instead of an inode in the event of an error.

affs_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of EINVAL.

<title>Slab API: remove useless ctor parameter and reorder parameters</title>

<content type='text'>
Slab constructors currently have a flags parameter that is never used.  And
the order of the arguments is opposite to other slab functions.  The object
pointer is placed before the kmem_cache pointer.

Convert

        ctor(void *object, struct kmem_cache *s, unsigned long flags)

to

        ctor(struct kmem_cache *s, void *object)

throughout the kernel

<title>mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().</title>

<id>20c2df83d25c6a95affe6157a4c9cac4cf5ffaac</id>
<content type='text'>
Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

They can use generic_file_splice_read() instead. Since sys_sendfile() now
prefers that, there should be no change in behaviour.

<title>Detach sched.h from mm.h</title>

<id>e8edc6e03a5c8562dc70a6d969f732bdb355a7e7</id>
<content type='text'>
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

Cross-compile tested on

	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
	alpha alpha-up
	arm
	i386 i386-up i386-defconfig i386-allnoconfig
	ia64 ia64-up
	m68k
	mips
	parisc parisc-up
	powerpc powerpc-up
	s390 s390-up
	sparc sparc-up
	sparc64 sparc64-up
	um-x86_64
	x86_64 x86_64-up x86_64-defconfig x86_64-allnoconfig

as well as my two usual configs.
