Pull -&gt;s_options removal from Al Viro:
 "Preparations for fsmount/fsopen stuff (coming next cycle). Everything
  gets moved to explicit -&gt;show_options(), killing -&gt;s_options off +
  some cosmetic bits around fs/namespace.c and friends. Basically, the
  stuff needed to work with fsmount series with minimum of conflicts
  with other work.

  It's not strictly required for this merge window, but it would reduce
  the PITA during the coming cycle, so it would be nice to have those
  bits and pieces out of the way"

Implement the show_options superblock op for orangefs as part of a bid to
rid of s_options and generic_show_options() to make it easier to implement
a context-based mount where the mount options can be passed individually
over a file descriptor.

<title>sched/wait: Disambiguate wq_entry-&gt;task_list and wq_head-&gt;task_list naming</title>

So I've noticed a number of instances where it was not obvious from the
code whether -&gt;task_list was for a wait-queue head or a wait-queue entry.

Furthermore, there's a number of wait-queue users where the lists are
not for 'tasks' but other entities (poll tables, etc.), in which case
the 'task_list' name is actively confusing.

To clear this all up, name the wait-queue head and entry list structure
fields unambiguously:

	struct wait_queue_head::task_list	=&gt; ::head
	struct wait_queue_entry::task_list	=&gt; ::entry

For example, this code:

	rqw-&gt;wait.task_list.next != &amp;wait-&gt;task_list

... is was pretty unclear (to me) what it's doing, while now it's written this way:

	rqw-&gt;wait.head.next != &amp;wait-&gt;entry

... which makes it pretty clear that we are iterating a list until we see the head.

Other examples are:

	list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &amp;x-&gt;task_list, task_list) {
	list_for_each_entry(wq, &amp;fence-&gt;wait.task_list, task_list) {

... where it's unclear (to me) what we are iterating, and during review it's
hard to tell whether it's trying to walk a wait-queue entry (which would be
a bug), while now it's written as:

	list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &amp;x-&gt;head, entry) {
	list_for_each_entry(wq, &amp;fence-&gt;wait.head, entry) {

<title>sched/wait: Rename wait_queue_t =&gt; wait_queue_entry_t</title>

Rename:

	wait_queue_t		=&gt;	wait_queue_entry_t

'wait_queue_t' was always a slight misnomer: its name implies that it's a "queue",
but in reality it's a queue *entry*. The 'real' queue is the wait queue head,
which had to carry the name.

Start sorting this out by renaming it to 'wait_queue_entry_t'.

This also allows the real structure name 'struct __wait_queue' to
lose its double underscore and become 'struct wait_queue_entry',
which is the more canonical nomenclature for such data types.

Pull orangefs updates from Mike Marshall:
 "Orangefs cleanups, fixes and statx support.

  Some cleanups:

   - remove unused get_fsid_from_ino
   - fix bounds check for listxattr
   - clean up oversize xattr validation
   - do not set getattr_time on orangefs_lookup
   - return from orangefs_devreq_read quickly if possible
   - do not wait for timeout if umounting
   - handle zero size write in debugfs

  Bug fixes:

   - do not check possibly stale size on truncate
   - ensure the userspace component is unmounted if mount fails
   - total reimplementation of dir.c

  New feature:

   - implement statx

  The new implementation of dir.c is kind of a big deal, all new code.
  It has been posted to fs-devel during the previous rc period, we
  didn't get much review or feedback from there, but it has been
  reviewed very heavily here, so much so that we have two entire
  versions of the reimplementation.

  Not only does the new implementation fix some xfstests, but it passes
  all the new tests we made here that involve seeking and rewinding and
  giant directories and long file names. The new dir code has three
  patches itself:

   - skip forward to the next directory entry if seek is short
   - invalidate stored directory on seek
   - count directory pieces correctly"

If userspace seeks to a position in the stream which is not correct, it
would have returned EIO because the data in the buffer at that offset
would be incorrect.  This and the userspace daemon returning a corrupt
directory are indistinguishable.

Now if the data does not look right, skip forward to the next chunk and
try again.  The motivation is that if the directory changes, an
application may seek to a position that was valid and no longer is valid.

It is not yet possible for a directory to change.

If we write zero bytes to this debugfs file, then it will cause an
underflow when we do copy_from_user(buf, ubuf, count - 1).  Debugfs can
normally only be written to by root so the impact of this is low.

When the computer is turned off, all the processes are killed and then
all the filesystems are umounted.  OrangeFS should not wait for the
userspace daemon to come back in that case.

This only works for plain umount(2).  To actually take advantage of this
interactively, `umount -f' is needed; otherwise umount will issue a
statfs first, which will wait for the userspace daemon to come back.

When the computer is turned off, all the processes are killed and then
all the filesystems are umounted.  OrangeFS should not wait for the
userspace daemon to come back in that case.

This only works for plain umount(2).  To actually take advantage of this
interactively, `umount -f' is needed; otherwise umount will issue a
statfs first, which will wait for the userspace daemon to come back.
