- Change c_uid in struct coda_indoe_info from a vuid_t to a kuid_t.
- Initialize c_uid to GLOBAL_ROOT_UID instead of 0.
- Use uid_eq to compare cached kuids.

Protect d_subdirs and d_child with d_lock, except in filesystems that aren't
using dcache_lock for these anyway (eg. using i_mutex).

Note: if we change the locking rule in future so that -&gt;d_child protection is
provided only with -&gt;d_parent-&gt;d_lock, it may allow us to reduce some locking.
But it would be an exception to an otherwise regular locking scheme, so we'd
have to see some good results. Probably not worthwhile.

We mostly need it to protect cached user permissions. The c_flags field
is advisory, reading the wrong value is harmless and in the worst case
we hit a slow path where we have to make an extra upcall to the
userspace cache manager when revalidating a dentry or inode.

Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from
the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds.

Change most current-&gt;(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().

Change some task-&gt;e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id().  In some places it makes more
sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be
addressed by later patches.

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

<id>e8edc6e03a5c8562dc70a6d969f732bdb355a7e7</id>

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.
