Pull vfs pathwalk sanitizing from Al Viro:
 "Massive pathwalk rewrite and cleanups.

  Several iterations have been posted; hopefully this thing is getting
  readable and understandable now. Pretty much all parts of pathname
  resolutions are affected...

  The branch is identical to what has sat in -next, except for commit
  message in "lift all calls of step_into() out of follow_dotdot/
  follow_dotdot_rcu", crediting Qian Cai for reporting the bug; only
  commit message changed there."

* 'work.dotdot1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (69 commits)
  lookup_open(): don't bother with fallbacks to lookup+create
  atomic_open(): no need to pass struct open_flags anymore
  open_last_lookups(): move complete_walk() into do_open()
  open_last_lookups(): lift O_EXCL|O_CREAT handling into do_open()
  open_last_lookups(): don't abuse complete_walk() when all we want is unlazy
  open_last_lookups(): consolidate fsnotify_create() calls
  take post-lookup part of do_last() out of loop
  link_path_walk(): sample parent's i_uid and i_mode for the last component
  __nd_alloc_stack(): make it return bool
  reserve_stack(): switch to __nd_alloc_stack()
  pick_link(): take reserving space on stack into a new helper
  pick_link(): more straightforward handling of allocation failures
  fold path_to_nameidata() into its only remaining caller

  fs/namei.c: kill follow_mount()

<title>fs: move guard_bio_eod() after bio_set_op_attrs</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 85a8ce62c2ea ("block: add bio_truncate to fix guard_bio_eod")
adds bio_truncate() for handling bio EOD. However, bio_truncate()
doesn't use the passed 'op' parameter from guard_bio_eod's callers.

So bio_trunacate() may retrieve wrong 'op', and zering pages may
not be done for READ bio.

Fixes this issue by moving guard_bio_eod() after bio_set_op_attrs()
in submit_bh_wbc() so that bio_truncate() can always retrieve correct
op info.

Meantime remove the 'op' parameter from guard_bio_eod() because it isn't
used any more.

<title>compat_ioctl: simplify the implementation</title>

<id>77b9040195dea3fcddf19e136c9e99a501351778</id>
<content type='text'>
Now that both native and compat ioctl syscalls are
in the same file, a couple of simplifications can
be made, bringing the implementation closer together:

- do_vfs_ioctl(), ioctl_preallocate(), and compat_ioctl_preallocate()
  can become static, allowing the compiler to optimize better

- slightly update the coding style for consistency between
  the functions.

- rather than listing each command in two switch statements
  for the compat case, just call a single function that has
  all the common commands.

As a side-effect, FS_IOC_RESVSP/FS_IOC_RESVSP64 are now available
to x86 compat tasks, along with FS_IOC_RESVSP_32/FS_IOC_RESVSP64_32.
This is harmless for i386 emulation, and can be considered a bugfix
for x32 emulation, which never supported these in the past.
