* 'for-linus' of git://git.infradead.org/users/eparis/notify: (132 commits)
  fanotify: use both marks when possible
  fsnotify: pass both the vfsmount mark and inode mark
  fsnotify: walk the inode and vfsmount lists simultaneously
  fsnotify: rework ignored mark flushing
  fsnotify: remove global fsnotify groups lists
  fsnotify: remove group->mask
  fsnotify: remove the global masks
  fsnotify: cleanup should_send_event
  fanotify: use the mark in handler functions
  audit: use the mark in handler functions
  dnotify: use the mark in handler functions
  inotify: use the mark in handler functions
  fsnotify: send fsnotify_mark to groups in event handling functions
  fsnotify: Exchange list heads instead of moving elements
  fsnotify: srcu to protect read side of inode and vfsmount locks
  fsnotify: use an explicit flag to indicate fsnotify_destroy_mark has been called
  fsnotify: use _rcu functions for mark list traversal
  fsnotify: place marks on object in order of group memory address
  vfs/fsnotify: fsnotify_close can delay the final work in fput
  fsnotify: store struct file not struct path

Fix up trivial delete/modify conflict in fs/notify/inotify/inotify.c.

All filesystems that need invalidate_inode_buffers() are doing that explicitly

convert remaining ->clear_inode() to ->evict_inode()

Make ->drop_inode() just return whether inode needs to be dropped

2010-08-09T20:48:35+00:00

... and let iput_final() do the actual eviction or retention

fs/inode.c:evict() doesn't care about delete vs. non-delete paths now

new helper: end_writeback()

2010-08-09T20:47:49+00:00

Essentially, the minimal variant of ->evict_inode().  It's
a trimmed-down clear_inode(), sans any fs callbacks.  Once
it returns we know that no async writeback will be happening;
every ->evict_inode() instance should do that once and do that
before doing anything ->write_inode() could interfere with
(e.g. freeing the on-disk inode).

Take ->i_bdev/->i_cdev handling out of clear_inode()

2010-08-09T20:47:48+00:00

All call chains to clear_inode() pass through evict_inode() and
clear_inode() should be called by evict_inode() exactly once.
So we can pull i_bdev/i_cdev detaching up to evict_inode() itself.

generic_detach_inode() can be static now
