When an HFS filesystem is unmounted, it leaks a 2-page bitmap.  Also,
under extreme memory pressure, it's possible that hfs_releasepage() may
use a tree pointer that has not been initialized, and if so, the release
request should just be rejected.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: free_pages(0) is legal, remove obvious comment]

<title>CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the HFS filesystem</title>

Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from
the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds.

Change most current-&gt;(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().

Change some task-&gt;e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id().  In some places it makes more
sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be
addressed by later patches.

<title>[PATCH] move executable checking into -&gt;permission()</title>

For execute permission on a regular files we need to check if file has
any execute bits at all, regardless of capabilites.

This check is normally performed by generic_permission() but was also
added to the case when the filesystem defines its own -&gt;permission()
method.  In the latter case the filesystem should be responsible for
performing this check.

Move the check from inode_permission() inside filesystems which are
not calling generic_permission().

Create a helper function execute_ok() that returns true if the inode
is a directory or if any execute bits are present in i_mode.

Also fix up the following code:

 - coda control file is never executable
 - sysctl files are never executable
 - hfs_permission seems broken on MAY_EXEC, remove
 - hfsplus_permission is eqivalent to generic_permission(), remove

Fix a stack corruption caused by a corrupted hfs filesystem.  If the
catalog name length is corrupted the memcpy overwrites the catalog btree
structure.  Since the field is limited to HFS_NAMELEN bytes in the
structure and the file format, we throw an error if it is too long.

This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser
tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in
all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst
exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble.

This was posted for review some time ago and I believe its been in -mm
since then.

* kill redundant gfs2_iop_permission()

The obvious next target in that direction is permission(9)
