    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull vfs changes from Al Viro.
     "A lot of misc stuff.  The obvious groups:
       * Miklos' atomic_open series; kills the damn abuse of
         ->d_revalidate() by NFS, which was the major stumbling block for
         all work in that area.
       * ripping security_file_mmap() and dealing with deadlocks in the
         area; sanitizing the neighborhood of vm_mmap()/vm_munmap() in
         general.
       * ->encode_fh() switched to saner API; insane fake dentry in
         mm/cleancache.c gone.
       * assorted annotations in fs (endianness, __user)
       * parts of Artem's ->s_dirty work (jff2 and reiserfs parts)
       * ->update_time() work from Josef.
       * other bits and pieces all over the place.
    
      Normally it would've been in two or three pull requests, but
      signal.git stuff had eaten a lot of time during this cycle ;-/"
    
    Fix up trivial conflicts in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt (the
    'truncate_range' inode method was removed by the VM changes, the VFS
    update adds an 'update_time()' method), and in fs/btrfs/ulist.[ch] (due
    to sparse fix added twice, with other changes nearby).
