<content type='text'>
Fix the lookup method on the dynamic root directory such that creation
calls, such as mkdir, open(O_CREAT), symlink, etc. fail with EOPNOTSUPP
rather than failing with some odd error (such as EEXIST).

lookup() itself tries to create automount directories when it is invoked.
These are cached locally in RAM and not committed to storage.

Pull keyring namespacing from David Howells:
 "These patches help make keys and keyrings more namespace aware.

  Firstly some miscellaneous patches to make the process easier:

   - Simplify key index_key handling so that the word-sized chunks
     assoc_array requires don't have to be shifted about, making it
     easier to add more bits into the key.

   - Cache the hash value in the key so that we don't have to calculate
     on every key we examine during a search (it involves a bunch of
     multiplications).

   - Allow keying_search() to search non-recursively.

  Then the main patches:

   - Make it so that keyring names are per-user_namespace from the point
     of view of KEYCTL_JOIN_SESSION_KEYRING so that they're not
     accessible cross-user_namespace.

     keyctl_capabilities() shows KEYCTL_CAPS1_NS_KEYRING_NAME for this.

   - Move the user and user-session keyrings to the user_namespace
     rather than the user_struct. This prevents them propagating
     directly across user_namespaces boundaries (ie. the KEY_SPEC_*
     flags will only pick from the current user_namespace).

   - Make it possible to include the target namespace in which the key
     shall operate in the index_key. This will allow the possibility of
     multiple keys with the same description, but different target
     domains to be held in the same keyring.

     keyctl_capabilities() shows KEYCTL_CAPS1_NS_KEY_TAG for this.

   - Make it so that keys are implicitly invalidated by removal of a
     domain tag, causing them to be garbage collected.

   - Institute a network namespace domain tag that allows keys to be
     differentiated by the network namespace in which they operate. New
     keys that are of a type marked 'KEY_TYPE_NET_DOMAIN' are assigned
     the network domain in force when they are created.

   - Make it so that the desired network namespace can be handed down
     into the request_key() mechanism. This allows AFS, NFS, etc. to
     request keys specific to the network namespace of the superblock.

     This also means that the keys in the DNS record cache are
     thenceforth namespaced, provided network filesystems pass the
     appropriate network namespace down into dns_query().

     For DNS, AFS and NFS are good, whilst CIFS and Ceph are not. Other
     cache keyrings, such as idmapper keyrings, also need to set the
     domain tag - for which they need access to the network namespace of
     the superblock"

* tag 'keys-namespace-20190627' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs:
  keys: Pass the network namespace into request_key mechanism

Allow used DNS resolver keys to be invalidated after use if the caller is
doing its own caching of the results.  This reduces the amount of resources
required.

Fix AFS to invalidate DNS results to kill off permanent failure records
that get lodged in the resolver keyring and prevent future lookups from
happening.

Increase the sizes of the volume ID to 64 bits and the vnode ID (inode
number equivalent) to 96 bits to allow the support of YFS.

This requires the iget comparator to check the vnode-&gt;fid rather than i_ino
and i_generation as i_ino is not sufficiently capacious.  It also requires
this data to be placed into the vnode cache key for fscache.

For the moment, just discard the top 32 bits of the vnode ID when returning
it though stat.

Track VL servers as independent entities rather than lumping all their
addresses together into one set and implement server-level rotation by:

 (1) Add the concept of a VL server list, where each server has its own
     separate address list.  This code is similar to the FS server list.

 (2) Use the DNS resolver to retrieve a set of servers and their associated
     addresses, ports, preference and weight ratings.

 (3) In the case of a legacy DNS resolver or an address list given directly
     through /proc/net/afs/cells, create a list containing just a dummy
     server record and attach all the addresses to that.

 (4) Implement a simple rotation policy, for the moment ignoring the
     priorities and weights assigned to the servers.

 (5) Show the address list through /proc/net/afs/&lt;cell&gt;/vlservers.  This
     also displays the source and status of the data as indicated by the
     upcall.

Access to the list of cells by /proc/net/afs/cells has a couple of
problems:

 (1) It should be checking against SEQ_START_TOKEN for the keying the
     header line.

 (2) It's only holding the RCU read lock, so it can't just walk over the
     list without following the proper RCU methods.

Fix these by using an hlist instead of an ordinary list and using the
appropriate accessor functions to follow it with RCU.

Since the code that adds a cell to the list must also necessarily change,
sort the list on insertion whilst we're at it.
