Pull more vfs stuff from Al Viro:
 "O_TMPFILE ABI changes, Oleg's fput() series, misc cleanups, including
  making simple_lookup() usable for filesystems with non-NULL s_d_op,
  which allows us to get rid of quite a bit of ugliness"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  sunrpc: now we can just set -&gt;s_d_op
  cgroup: we can use simple_lookup() now
  efivarfs: we can use simple_lookup() now
  make simple_lookup() usable for filesystems that set -&gt;s_d_op
  configfs: don't open-code d_alloc_name()
  __rpc_lookup_create_exclusive: pass string instead of qstr
  rpc_create_*_dir: don't bother with qstr
  llist: llist_add() can use llist_add_batch()
  llist: fix/simplify llist_add() and llist_add_batch()
  fput: turn "list_head delayed_fput_list" into llist_head
  fs/file_table.c:fput(): add comment
  Safer ABI for O_TMPFILE

[suggested by Rasmus Villemoes] make O_DIRECTORY | O_RDWR part of O_TMPFILE;
that will fail on old kernels in a lot more cases than what I came up with.
And make sure O_CREAT doesn't get there...

[suggested by Rasmus Villemoes] make O_DIRECTORY | O_RDWR part of O_TMPFILE;
that will fail on old kernels in a lot more cases than what I came up with.
And make sure O_CREAT doesn't get there...

Pull device-mapper changes from Alasdair G Kergon:
 "Add a device-mapper target called dm-switch to provide a multipath
  framework for storage arrays that dynamically reconfigure their
  preferred paths for different device regions.

  Fix a bug in the verity target that prevented its use with some
  specific sizes of devices.

  Improve some locking mechanisms in the device-mapper core and bufio.

  Add Mike Snitzer as a device-mapper maintainer.

  A few more clean-ups and fixes"

* tag 'dm-3.11-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/agk/linux-dm:
  dm: add switch target
  dm: update maintainers
  dm: optimize reorder structure
  dm: optimize use SRCU and RCU
  dm bufio: submit writes outside lock
  dm cache: fix arm link errors with inline
  dm verity: use __ffs and __fls
  dm flakey: correct ctr alloc failure mesg
  dm verity: remove pointless comparison
  dm: use __GFP_HIGHMEM in __vmalloc
  dm verity: fix inability to use a few specific devices sizes
  dm ioctl: set noio flag to avoid __vmalloc deadlock

Rename LL_SO to BUSY_POLL_SO
Rename sysctl_net_ll_{read,poll} to sysctl_busy_{read,poll}
Fix up users of these variables.
Fix documentation for sysctl.

a patch for the socket.7  man page will follow separately,
because of limitations of my mail setup.

<title>dm: optimize use SRCU and RCU</title>

This patch removes "io_lock" and "map_lock" in struct mapped_device and
"holders" in struct dm_table and replaces these mechanisms with
sleepable-rcu.

Previously, the code would call "dm_get_live_table" and "dm_table_put" to
get and release table. Now, the code is changed to call "dm_get_live_table"
and "dm_put_live_table". dm_get_live_table locks sleepable-rcu and
dm_put_live_table unlocks it.

dm_get_live_table_fast/dm_put_live_table_fast can be used instead of
dm_get_live_table/dm_put_live_table. These *_fast functions use
non-sleepable RCU, so the caller must not block between them.

If the code changes active or inactive dm table, it must call
dm_sync_table before destroying the old table.
