Pull vfs changes from Al Viro.
 "A lot of misc stuff.  The obvious groups:
   * Miklos' atomic_open series; kills the damn abuse of
     -&gt;d_revalidate() by NFS, which was the major stumbling block for
     all work in that area.
   * ripping security_file_mmap() and dealing with deadlocks in the
     area; sanitizing the neighborhood of vm_mmap()/vm_munmap() in
     general.
   * -&gt;encode_fh() switched to saner API; insane fake dentry in
     mm/cleancache.c gone.
   * assorted annotations in fs (endianness, __user)
   * parts of Artem's -&gt;s_dirty work (jff2 and reiserfs parts)
   * -&gt;update_time() work from Josef.
   * other bits and pieces all over the place.

  Normally it would've been in two or three pull requests, but
  signal.git stuff had eaten a lot of time during this cycle ;-/"

Fix up trivial conflicts in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt (the
'truncate_range' inode method was removed by the VM changes, the VFS
update adds an 'update_time()' method), and in fs/btrfs/ulist.[ch] (due
to sparse fix added twice, with other changes nearby).

Merge misc patches from Andrew Morton:

 - checkpatch updates

 - fatfs

 - kmod changes

 - procfs

 - cpumask

 - UML

 - kexec

 - mqueue

 - rapidio

 - pidns

 - some checkpoint-restore feature work.  Reluctantly.  Most of it
   delayed a release.  I'm still rather worried that we don't have a
   clear roadmap to completion for this work.

ULONG_MAX is often used to check for integer overflow when calculating
allocation size.  While ULONG_MAX happens to work on most systems, there
is no guarantee that `size_t' must be the same size as `long'.

This patch introduces SIZE_MAX, the maximum value of `size_t', to improve
portability and readability for allocation size validation.

In the create_authorizer method for both the mds and osd clients,
the auth_client-&gt;ops pointer is blindly dereferenced.  There is no
obvious guarantee that this pointer has been assigned.  And
furthermore, even if the ops pointer is non-null there is definitely
no guarantee that the create_authorizer or destroy_authorizer
methods are defined.

Add checks in both routines to make sure they are defined (non-null)
before use.  Add similar checks in a few other spots in these files
while we're at it.

Make use of the new ceph_auth_handshake structure in order to reduce
the number of arguments passed to the create_authorizor method in
ceph_auth_client_ops.  Use a local variable of that type as a
shorthand in the get_authorizer method definitions.
