Pull backing device changes from Jens Axboe:
 "This contains a cleanup of how the backing device is handled, in
  preparation for a rework of the life time rules.  In this part, the
  most important change is to split the unrelated nommu mmap flags from
  it, but also removing a backing_dev_info pointer from the
  address_space (and inode), and a cleanup of other various minor bits.

  Christoph did all the work here, I just fixed an oops with pages that
  have a swap backing.  Arnd fixed a missing export, and Oleg killed the
  lustre backing_dev_info from staging.  Last patch was from Al,
  unexporting parts that are now no longer needed outside"

* 'for-3.20/bdi' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
  Make super_blocks and sb_lock static
  mtd: export new mtd_mmap_capabilities
  fs: make inode_to_bdi() handle NULL inode
  staging/lustre/llite: get rid of backing_dev_info
  fs: remove default_backing_dev_info
  fs: don't reassign dirty inodes to default_backing_dev_info
  nfs: don't call bdi_unregister
  ceph: remove call to bdi_unregister
  fs: remove mapping-&gt;backing_dev_info
  fs: export inode_to_bdi and use it in favor of mapping-&gt;backing_dev_info
  nilfs2: set up s_bdi like the generic mount_bdev code
  block_dev: get bdev inode bdi directly from the block device
  block_dev: only write bdev inode on close
  fs: introduce f_op-&gt;mmap_capabilities for nommu mmap support
  fs: kill BDI_CAP_SWAP_BACKED
  fs: deduplicate noop_backing_dev_info

Now that we got rid of the bdi abuse on character devices we can always use
sb-&gt;s_bdi to get at the backing_dev_info for a file, except for the block
device special case.  Export inode_to_bdi and replace uses of
mapping-&gt;backing_dev_info with it to prepare for the removal of
mapping-&gt;backing_dev_info.

Pull fuse update from Miklos Szeredi:
 "The first part makes sure we don't hold up umount with pending async
  requests.  In addition to being a cleanup, this is a small behavioral
  change (for the better) and unlikely to break anything.

  The second part prepares for a cleanup of the fuse device I/O code by
  adding a helper for simple request submission, with some savings in
  line numbers already realized"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/fuse:
  fuse: use file_inode() in fuse_file_fallocate()
  fuse: introduce fuse_simple_request() helper
  fuse: reduce max out args
  fuse: hold inode instead of path after release
  fuse: flush requests on umount
  fuse: don't wake up reserved req in fuse_conn_kill()

The following pattern is repeated many times:

	req = fuse_get_req_nopages(fc);
	/* Initialize req-&gt;(in|out).args */
	fuse_request_send(fc, req);
	err = req-&gt;out.h.error;
	fuse_put_request(req);

Create a new replacement helper:

	/* Initialize args */
	err = fuse_simple_request(fc, &amp;args);

In addition to reducing the code size, this will ease moving from the
complex arg-based to a simpler page-based I/O on the fuse device.

path_put() in release could trigger a DESTROY request in fuseblk.  The
possible deadlock was worked around by doing the path_put() with
schedule_work().

This complexity isn't needed if we just hold the inode instead of the path.
Since we now flush all requests before destroying the super block we can be
sure that all held inodes will be dropped.

<title>fuse: honour max_read and max_write in direct_io mode</title>

The third argument of fuse_get_user_pages() "nbytesp" refers to the number of
bytes a caller asked to pack into fuse request. This value may be lesser
than capacity of fuse request or iov_iter.  So fuse_get_user_pages() must
ensure that *nbytesp won't grow.

Now, when helper iov_iter_get_pages() performs all hard work of extracting
pages from iov_iter, it can be done by passing properly calculated
"maxsize" to the helper.

The other caller of iov_iter_get_pages() (dio_refill_pages()) doesn't need
this capability, so pass LONG_MAX as the maxsize argument here.
