  Another fun thing is the merge of -&gt;d_iput() callers (dentry_iput()

<title>vfs: make the string hashes salt the hash</title>

We always mixed in the parent pointer into the dentry name hash, but we
did it late at lookup time.  It turns out that we can simplify that
lookup-time action by salting the hash with the parent pointer early
instead of late.

A few other users of our string hashes also wanted to mix in their own
pointers into the hash, and those are updated to use the same mechanism.

Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the
NULL pointer as a no-salt.

<title>switch -&gt;setxattr() to passing dentry and inode separately</title>

smack -&gt;d_instantiate() uses -&gt;setxattr(), so to be able to call it before
we'd hashed the new dentry and attached it to inode, we need -&gt;setxattr()
instances getting the inode as an explicit argument rather than obtaining
it from dentry.

Similar change for -&gt;getxattr() had been done in commit ce23e64.  Unlike
-&gt;getxattr() (which is used by both selinux and smack instances of
-&gt;d_instantiate()) -&gt;setxattr() is used only by smack one and unfortunately
it got missed back then.
