Pull ext4 bugfixes from Ted Ts'o:
 "These changes contains a fix for overlayfs interacting with some
  (badly behaved) dentry code in various file systems.  These have been
  reviewed by Al and the respective file system mtinainers and are going
  through the ext4 tree for convenience.

  This also has a few ext4 encryption bug fixes that were discovered in
  Android testing (yes, we will need to get these sync'ed up with the
  fs/crypto code; I'll take care of that).  It also has some bug fixes
  and a change to ignore the legacy quota options to allow for xfstests
  regression testing of ext4's internal quota feature and to be more
  consistent with how xfs handles this case"

<title>mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros</title>

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - &lt;foo&gt; &lt;&lt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - &lt;foo&gt; &gt;&gt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -&gt; PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -&gt; get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -&gt; put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

EXT4 may be used as lower layer of overlayfs and accessing f_path.dentry
can lead to a crash.

Fix by replacing direct access of file-&gt;f_path.dentry with the
file_dentry() accessor, which will always return a native object.

In f_op-&gt;open() lock on parent is not held, so there's no guarantee that
parent dentry won't go away at any time.

Even after this patch there's no guarantee that 'dir' will stay the parent
of 'inode', but at least it won't be freed while being used.

Using SEEK_DATA in a huge sparse file can easily lead to sotflockups as
ext4_seek_data() iterates hole block-by-block. Fix the problem by using
returned hole size from ext4_map_blocks() and thus skip the hole in one
go.

Update also SEEK_HOLE implementation to follow the same pattern as
SEEK_DATA to make future maintenance easier.

Furthermore we add cond_resched() to both ext4_seek_data() and
ext4_seek_hole() to avoid softlockups in case evil user creates huge
fragmented file and we have to go through lots of extents.

Currently we've used hashed aio_mutex to serialize unaligned AIO DIO.
However the code cleanups that happened after 2011 when the lock was
introduced made aio_mutex acquired at almost the same places where we
already have exclusion using i_mutex. So just use i_mutex for the
exclusion of unaligned AIO DIO.

The change moves waiting for pending unwritten extent conversion under
i_mutex. That makes special handling of O_APPEND writes unnecessary and
also avoids possible livelocking of unaligned AIO DIO with aligned one
(nothing was preventing contiguous stream of aligned AIO DIOs to let
unaligned AIO DIO wait forever).

<title>ext2, ext4: fix issue with missing journal entry in ext4_dax_mkwrite()</title>

<content type='text'>
As it is currently written ext4_dax_mkwrite() assumes that the call into
__dax_mkwrite() will not have to do a block allocation so it doesn't create
a journal entry.  For a read that creates a zero page to cover a hole
followed by a write that actually allocates storage this is incorrect.  The
ext4_dax_mkwrite() -&gt; __dax_mkwrite() -&gt; __dax_fault() path calls
get_blocks() to allocate storage.

Fix this by having the -&gt;page_mkwrite fault handler call ext4_dax_fault()
as this function already has all the logic needed to allocate a journal
entry and call __dax_fault().

Also update the ext2 fault handlers in this same way to remove duplicate
code and keep the logic between ext2 and ext4 the same.

In the case where the per-file key for the directory is cached, but
root does not have access to the key needed to derive the per-file key
for the files in the directory, we allow the lookup to succeed, so
that lstat(2) and unlink(2) can suceed.  However, if a program tries
to open the file, it will get an ENOKEY error.

Pull final vfs updates from Al Viro:

 - The -&gt;i_mutex wrappers (with small prereq in lustre)

 - a fix for too early freeing of symlink bodies on shmem (they need to
   be RCU-delayed) (-stable fodder)

 - followup to dedupe stuff merged this cycle

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  vfs: abort dedupe loop if fatal signals are pending
  make sure that freeing shmem fast symlinks is RCU-delayed
  wrappers for -&gt;i_mutex access
  lustre: remove unused declaration
