This patch removes a useless call to brelse(bitmap_bh) since at that
point bitmap_bh is NULL and slightly cleans up bitmap_bh handling.

Get rid of the initialize dquot operation - it is now always called from
the filesystem and if a filesystem really needs it's own (which none
currently does) it can just call into it's own routine directly.

Rename the now static low-level dquot_initialize helper to __dquot_initialize
and vfs_dq_init to dquot_initialize to have a consistent namespace.

always called from the filesystem and if a filesystem really needs
their own (which none currently does) it can just call into it's

Also get rid of the vfs_dq_alloc/vfs_dq_free wrappers and always
call the lowlevel dquot_alloc_inode / dqout_free_inode routines
directly, which now lose the number argument which is always 1.

<title>ext2: tighten restrictions on inode flags</title>

At the moment there are few restrictions on which flags may be set on
which inodes.  Specifically DIRSYNC may only be set on directories and
IMMUTABLE and APPEND may not be set on links.  Tighten that to disallow
TOPDIR being set on non-directories and only NODUMP and NOATIME to be set
on non-regular file, non-directories.

Introduces a flags masking function which masks flags based on mode and
use it during inode creation and when flags are set via the ioctl to
facilitate future consistency.

<title>ext2: don't inherit inappropriate inode flags from parent</title>

At present BTREE/INDEX is the only flag that new ext2 inodes do NOT
inherit from their parent.  In addition prevent the flags DIRTY, ECOMPR,
INDEX, IMAGIC and TOPDIR from being inherited.  List inheritable flags
explicitly to prevent future flags from accidentally being inherited.

This fixes the TOPDIR flag inheritance bug reported at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9866.

* make ext2_new_inode() put the inode into icache in locked state
* do not unlock until the inode is fully set up; otherwise nfsd
might pick it in half-baked state.
* make sure that ext2_new_inode() does *not* lead to two inodes with the
same inumber hashed at the same time; otherwise a bogus fhandle coming
from nfsd might race with inode creation:

nfsd: iget_locked() creates inode
nfsd: try to read from disk, block on that.
ext2_new_inode(): allocate inode with that inumber
ext2_new_inode(): insert it into icache, set it up and dirty
ext2_write_inode(): get the relevant part of inode table in cache,
set the entry for our inode (and start writing to disk)
nfsd: get CPU again, look into inode table, see nice and sane on-disk
inode, set the in-core inode from it

oops - we have two in-core inodes with the same inumber live in icache,
both used for IO.  Welcome to fs corruption...
