It is always "an" if there is a vowel _spoken_ (not written).
So it is:
"an hour" (spoken vowel)
but
"a uniform" (spoken 'j')

<title>CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the NCPFS 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>SL*B: drop kmem cache argument from constructor</title>

Kmem cache passed to constructor is only needed for constructors that are
themselves multiplexeres.  Nobody uses this "feature", nor does anybody uses
passed kmem cache in non-trivial way, so pass only pointer to object.

Non-trivial places are:
	arch/powerpc/mm/init_64.c
	arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c

This is flag day, yes.

<title>Remove BKL from remote_llseek v2</title>

<id>9465efc9e96135a2cec8154c0c766fa59984a298</id>
<content type='text'>
- Replace remote_llseek with generic_file_llseek_unlocked (to force compilation
failures in all users)
- Change all users to either use generic_file_llseek_unlocked directly or
take the BKL around. I changed the file systems who don't use the BKL
for anything (CIFS, GFS) to call it directly. NCPFS and SMBFS and NFS
take the BKL, but explicitely in their own source now.

I moved them all over in a single patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

Open problem: 32bit kernels can corrupt fpos because its modification
is not atomic, but they can do that anyways because there's other paths who
modify it without BKL.

Do we need a special lock for the pos/f_version = 0 checks?

Trond says the NFS BKL is likely not needed, but keep it for now
until his full audit.

v2: Use generic_file_llseek_unlocked instead of remote_llseek_unlocked
    and factor duplicated code (suggested by hch)
