* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6: (96 commits)
  no need for list_for_each_entry_safe()/resetting with superblock list
  Fix sget() race with failing mount
  vfs: don't hold s_umount over close_bdev_exclusive() call
  sysv: do not mark superblock dirty on remount
  sysv: do not mark superblock dirty on mount
  btrfs: remove junk sb_dirt change
  BFS: clean up the superblock usage
  AFFS: wait for sb synchronization when needed
  AFFS: clean up dirty flag usage
  cifs: truncate fallout
  mbcache: fix shrinker function return value
  mbcache: Remove unused features
  add f_flags to struct statfs(64)
  pass a struct path to vfs_statfs
  update VFS documentation for method changes.
  All filesystems that need invalidate_inode_buffers() are doing that explicitly
  convert remaining -&gt;clear_inode() to -&gt;evict_inode()
  Make -&gt;drop_inode() just return whether inode needs to be dropped
  fs/inode.c:clear_inode() is gone
  fs/inode.c:evict() doesn't care about delete vs. non-delete paths now
  ...

Fix up trivial conflicts in fs/nilfs2/super.c

<title>check ATTR_SIZE contraints in inode_change_ok</title>

Make sure we check the truncate constraints early on in -&gt;setattr by adding
those checks to inode_change_ok.  Also clean up and document inode_change_ok
to make this obvious.

As a fallout we don't have to call inode_newsize_ok from simple_setsize and
simplify it down to a truncate_setsize which doesn't return an error.  This
simplifies a lot of setattr implementations and means we use truncate_setsize
almost everywhere.  Get rid of fat_setsize now that it's trivial and mark
ext2_setsize static to make the calling convention obvious.

Keep the inode_newsize_ok in vmtruncate for now as all callers need an
audit for its removal anyway.

Note: setattr code in ecryptfs doesn't call inode_change_ok at all and
needs a deeper audit, but that is left for later.

Make sure we call inode_change_ok before doing any changes in -&gt;setattr,
and make sure to call it even if our fs wants to ignore normal UNIX
permissions, but use the ATTR_FORCE to skip those.

<title>vfs: re-introduce MAY_CHDIR</title>

Currently MAY_ACCESS means that filesystems must check the permissions
right then and not rely on cached results or the results of future
operations on the object.  This can be because of a call to sys_access() or
because of a call to chdir() which needs to check search without relying on
any future operations inside that dir.  I plan to use MAY_ACCESS for other
purposes in the security system, so I split the MAY_ACCESS and the
MAY_CHDIR cases.

<title>fuse: reject O_DIRECT flag also in fuse_create</title>

<id>1b7323965a8c6eee9dc4e345a7ae4bff1dc93149</id>
<content type='text'>
The comment in fuse_open about O_DIRECT:

  "VFS checks this, but only _after_ -&gt;open()"

also holds for fuse_create, however, the same kind of check was missing there.

As an impact of this bug, open(newfile, O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_DIRECT) fails, but a
stub newfile will remain if the fuse server handled the implied FUSE_CREATE
request appropriately.

Other impact: in the above situation ima_file_free() will complain to open/free
imbalance if CONFIG_IMA is set.

Update some fs code to make use of new helper functions introduced

(except CIFS now calls send_sig under i_lock, via inode_newsize_ok).

Add notification messages that allow the filesystem to invalidate VFS
caches.

Two notifications are added:

 1) inode invalidation

   - invalidate cached attributes
   - invalidate a range of pages in the page cache (this is optional)

 2) dentry invalidation

   - try to invalidate a subtree in the dentry cache

Care must be taken while accessing the 'struct super_block' for the
mount, as it can go away while an invalidation is in progress.  To
prevent this, introduce a rw-semaphore, that is taken for read during
the invalidation and taken for write in the -&gt;kill_sb callback.

This patch lets filesystems handle masking the file mode on creation.
This is needed if filesystem is using ACLs.

 - The CREATE, MKDIR and MKNOD requests are extended with a "umask"
   parameter.

 - A new FUSE_DONT_MASK flag is added to the INIT request/reply.  With
   this the filesystem may request that the create mode is not masked.
