Add #include &lt;linux/cred.h&gt; dependencies to all .c files rely on sched.h
doing that for them.

Note that even if the count where we need to add extra headers seems high,
it's still a net win, because &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; is included in over
2,200 files ...

put_compat_statfs64() does NOT return -1 and setting errno to EOVERFLOW
when some variables(like: f_bsize) overflowed in the returned struct.

The reason is that the ubuf-&gt;f_blocks is __u64 type, it couldn't be
4bits as the judgement in put_comat_statfs64(). Here correct the
__u32 variables(in struct compat_statfs64) for comparison.

reproducer:
step1. mount hugetlbfs with two different pagesize on ppc64 arch.

$ hugeadm --pool-pages-max 16M:0
$ hugeadm --create-mount
$ mount | grep -i hugetlbfs
none on /var/lib/hugetlbfs/pagesize-16MB type hugetlbfs (rw,relatime,seclabel,pagesize=16777216)
none on /var/lib/hugetlbfs/pagesize-16GB type hugetlbfs (rw,relatime,seclabel,pagesize=17179869184)

step2. compile &amp; run this C program.

	printf("sizeof f_bsize = %d, f_bsize=%ld\n", sizeof(sb.f_bsize), sb.f_bsize);

	return 0;
 }

<title>ext4: allow readdir()'s of large empty directories to be interrupted</title>

If a directory has a large number of empty blocks, iterating over all
of them can take a long time, leading to scheduler warnings and users
getting irritated when they can't kill a process in the middle of one
of these long-running readdir operations.  Fix this by adding checks to
ext4_readdir() and ext4_htree_fill_tree().

This was reverted earlier due to a typo in the original commit where I
experimented with using signal_pending() instead of
fatal_signal_pending().  The test was in the wrong place if we were
going to return signal_pending() since we would end up returning
duplicant entries.  See 9f2394c9be47 for a more detailed explanation.

Added fix as suggested by Linus to check for signal_pending() in
in the filldir() functions.
