In preparation for allowing mountpoints to be renamed and unlinked
in remote filesystems and in other mount namespaces test if on a dentry
there is a mount in the local mount namespace before allowing it to
be renamed or unlinked.
The primary motivation here are old versions of fusermount unmount
which is not safe if the a path can be renamed or unlinked while it is
verifying the mount is safe to unmount. More recent versions are simpler
and safer by simply using UMOUNT_NOFOLLOW when unmounting a mount
in a directory owned by an arbitrary user.
Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu> reports this is approach is good
enough to remove concerns about new kernels mixed with old versions
of fusermount.
A secondary motivation for restrictions here is that it removing empty
directories that have non-empty mount points on them appears to
violate the rule that rmdir can not remove empty directories. As
Linus Torvalds pointed out this is useful for programs (like git) that
test if a directory is empty with rmdir.
Therefore this patch arranges to enforce the existing mount point
semantics for local mount namespace.
v2: Rewrote the test to be a drop in replacement for d_mountpoint
v3: Use bool instead of int as the return type of is_local_mountpoint

The current comments in d_invalidate about what and why it is doing
what it is doing are wildly off-base. Which is not surprising as
the comments date back to last minute bug fix of the 2.2 kernel.
The big fat lie of a comment said: If it's a directory, we can't drop
it for fear of somebody re-populating it with children (even though
dropping it would make it unreachable from that root, we still might
repopulate it if it was a working directory or similar).
[AV] What we really need to avoid is multiple dentry aliases of the
same directory inode; on all filesystems that have ->d_revalidate()
we either declare all positive dentries always valid (and thus never
fed to d_invalidate()) or use d_materialise_unique() and/or d_splice_alias(),
which take care of alias prevention.
The current rules are:
- To prevent mount point leaks dentries that are mount points or that
have childrent that are mount points may not be be unhashed.
- All dentries may be unhashed.
- Directories may be rehashed with d_materialise_unique
check_submounts_and_drop implements this already for well maintained
remote filesystems so implement the current rules in d_invalidate
by just calling check_submounts_and_drop.
The one difference between d_invalidate and check_submounts_and_drop
is that d_invalidate must respect it when a d_revalidate method has
earlier called d_drop so preserve the d_unhashed check in
d_invalidate.

d_drop or check_submounts_and_drop called from d_revalidate can result
in renamed directories with child dentries being unhashed. These
renamed and drop directory dentries can be rehashed after
d_materialise_unique uses d_find_alias to find them.

On final mntput() we want fs shutdown to happen before return to
userland; however, the only case where we want it happen right
there (i.e. where task_work_add won't do) is MNT_INTERNAL victim.
Those have to be fully synchronous - failure halfway through module
init might count on having vfsmount killed right there. Fortunately,
final mntput on MNT_INTERNAL vfsmounts happens on shallow stack.
So we handle those synchronously and do an analog of delayed fput
logics for everything else.
As the result, we are guaranteed that fs shutdown will always happen
on shallow stack.

Biederman's umount-on-rmdir series changes d_invalidate() to sumarily remove
mounts under the passed in dentry regardless of whether they are busy
or not. So calling this in fs/autofs4/expire.c:autofs4_tree_busy() is
definitely the wrong thing to do becuase it will silently umount entries
instead of just cleaning stale dentrys.
But this call shouldn't be needed and testing shows that automounting
continues to function without it.
As Al Viro correctly surmises the original intent of the call was to
perform what shrink_dcache_parent() does.
If at some time in the future I see stale dentries accumulating
following failed mounts I'll revisit the issue and possibly add a
shrink_dcache_parent() call if needed.

* external dentry names get a small structure prepended to them
(struct external_name).
* it contains an atomic refcount, matching the number of struct dentry
instances that have ->d_name.name pointing to that external name. The
first thing free_dentry() does is decrementing refcount of external name,
so the instances that are between the call of free_dentry() and
RCU-delayed actual freeing do not contribute.
* __d_move(x, y, false) makes the name of x equal to the name of y,
external or not. If y has an external name, extra reference is grabbed
and put into x->d_name.name. If x used to have an external name, the
reference to the old name is dropped and, should it reach zero, freeing
is scheduled via kfree_rcu().
* free_dentry() in dentry with external name decrements the refcount of
that name and, should it reach zero, does RCU-delayed call that will
free both the dentry and external name. Otherwise it does what it
used to do, except that __d_free() doesn't even look at ->d_name.name;
it simply frees the dentry.
All non-RCU accesses to dentry external name are safe wrt freeing since they
all should happen before free_dentry() is called. RCU accesses might run
into a dentry seen by free_dentry() or into an old name that got already
dropped by __d_move(); however, in both cases dentry must have been
alive and refer to that name at some point after we'd done rcu_read_lock(),
which means that any freeing must be still pending.

AFAICS, prepend_name() is broken on SMP alpha. Disclaimer: I don't have
SMP alpha boxen to reproduce it on. However, it really looks like the race
is real.
CPU1: d_path() on /mnt/ramfs/<255-character>/foo
CPU2: mv /mnt/ramfs/<255-character> /mnt/ramfs/<63-character>
CPU2 does d_alloc(), which allocates an external name, stores the name there
including terminating NUL, does smp_wmb() and stores its address in
dentry->d_name.name. It proceeds to d_add(dentry, NULL) and d_move()
old dentry over to that. ->d_name.name value ends up in that dentry.
In the meanwhile, CPU1 gets to prepend_name() for that dentry. It fetches
->d_name.name and ->d_name.len; the former ends up pointing to new name
(64-byte kmalloc'ed array), the latter - 255 (length of the old name).
Nothing to force the ordering there, and normally that would be OK, since we'd
run into the terminating NUL and stop. Except that it's alpha, and we'd need
a data dependency barrier to guarantee that we see that store of NUL
__d_alloc() has done. In a similar situation dentry_cmp() would survive; it
does explicit smp_read_barrier_depends() after fetching ->d_name.name.
prepend_name() doesn't and it risks walking past the end of kmalloc'ed object
and possibly oops due to taking a page fault in kernel mode.

Only exchange source and destination filenames
if flags contain RENAME_EXCHANGE.
In case if executable file was running and replaced by
other file /proc/PID/exe should still show correct file name,
not the old name of the file by which it was replaced.
The scenario when this bug manifests itself was like this:
* ALT Linux uses rpm and start-stop-daemon;
* during a package upgrade rpm creates a temporary file
for an executable to rename it upon successful unpacking;
* start-stop-daemon is run subsequently and it obtains
the (nonexistant) temporary filename via /proc/PID/exe
thus failing to identify the running process.
Note that "long" filenames (> DNAiME_INLINE_LEN) are still
exchanged without RENAME_EXCHANGE and this behaviour exists
long enough (should be fixed too apparently).
So this patch is just an interim workaround that restores
behavior for "short" names as it was before changes
introduced by commit da1ce0670c ("vfs: add cross-rename").
See https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/7/6 for details.
AV: the comments about being more careful with ->d_name.hash
than with ->d_name.name are from back in 2.3.40s; they
became obsolete by 2.3.60s, when we started to unhash the
target instead of swapping hash chain positions followed
by d_delete() as we used to do when dcache was first
introduced.

The third argument of fuse_get_user_pages() "nbytesp" refers to the number of
bytes a caller asked to pack into fuse request. This value may be lesser
than capacity of fuse request or iov_iter. So fuse_get_user_pages() must
ensure that *nbytesp won't grow.
Now, when helper iov_iter_get_pages() performs all hard work of extracting
pages from iov_iter, it can be done by passing properly calculated
"maxsize" to the helper.
The other caller of iov_iter_get_pages() (dio_refill_pages()) doesn't need
this capability, so pass LONG_MAX as the maxsize argument here.

VM_SOFTDIRTY in PTE holes but neglected to observe the start of VMAs
returned by find_vma.

page and asserts that the page is not softdirty. I'm going to send the
pagemap selftest in a later commit.

----------------[END SCRIPT]--------------------
The mmaptest tool looks something like this (very simplified, with
error checking removed):
----------------[BEGIN mmaptest]--------------------
data = mmap(NULL, file_size - file_offset, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED, fd, file_offset);
for (i = 0; i < write_count; ++i) {
memcpy(data + i * 4096, buf, sizeof(buf));
msync(data, file_size - file_offset, MS_SYNC))
}
----------------[END mmaptest]--------------------
The output of the script looks something like this:
BEFORE MMAP: 281ed1d5ae50e8419f9b978aab16de83 /mnt/testfile
AFTER MMAP: 6604a1c31f10780331a6850371b3a313 /mnt/testfile
AFTER REMOUNT: 281ed1d5ae50e8419f9b978aab16de83 /mnt/testfile
So it is clear, that the changes done using mmap() do not survive a
remount. This can be reproduced a 100% of the time. The problem was
introduced in commit 136e8770cd ("nilfs2: fix issue of
nilfs_set_page_dirty() for page at EOF boundary").
If the page was read with mpage_readpage() or mpage_readpages() for
example, then it has no buffers attached to it. In that case
page_has_buffers(page) in nilfs_set_page_dirty() will be false.
Therefore nilfs_set_file_dirty() is never called and the pages are never
collected and never written to disk.
This patch fixes the problem by also calling nilfs_set_file_dirty() if the
page has no buffers attached to it.

Every mcount() call in the MIPS 32-bit kernel is done as follows:

Commit bbd426f542 "MIPS: Simplify FP context access" modified the
SIFROMREG & SIFROMHREG macros such that they return unsigned rather
than signed 32b integers. I had believed that to be fine, but
inadvertently missed the MFC1 & MFHC1 cases which write to a struct
pt_regs regs element. On MIPS32 this is fine, but on 64 bit those
saved regs' fields are 64 bit wide. Using unsigned values caused the
32 bit value from the FP register to be zero rather than sign extended
as the architecture specifies, causing incorrect emulation of the
MFC1 & MFHc1 instructions. Fix by reintroducing the casts to signed
integers, and therefore the sign extension.

Pull i2c fixes from Wolfram Sang:
"This is probably not the kind of pull request you want to see that
late in the cycle. Yet, the ACPI refactorization was problematic
again and caused another two issues which need fixing. My holidays
with limited internet (plus travelling) and the developer's illness
didn't help either :(
The details:
- ACPI code was refactored out into a seperate file and as a
side-effect, the i2c-core module got renamed. Jean Delvare
rightfully complained about the rename being problematic for
distributions. So, Mika and I thought the least problematic way to
deal with it is to move all the code back into the main i2c core
source file. This is mainly a huge code move with some #ifdeffery
applied. No functional code changes. Our personal tests and the
testbots did not find problems. (I was thinking about reverting,
too, yet that would also have ~800 lines changed)
- The new ACPI code also had a NULL pointer exception, thanks to
Peter for finding and fixing it.
- Mikko fixed a locking problem by decoupling clock_prepare and
clock_enable.
- Addy learnt that the datasheet was wrong and reimplemented the
frequency setup according to the new algorithm.
- Fan fixed an off-by-one error when copying data
- Janusz fixed a copy'n'paste bug which gave a wrong error message
- Sergei made sure that "don't touch" bits are not accessed"

If adapter->dev.parent == NULL there is a NULL pointer dereference in
