[RFC PATCH] touch_mnt_namespace when the mount flags change
Daemons that need to be launched while the rootfs is read-only can now
poll /proc/mounts to be notified when their O_RDWR requests may no
longer end in EROFS.

Reiserfs currently doesn't set a llseek method for regular files, which
means it will fall back to default_llseek. This means no one can seek
beyond 2 Gigabytes on reiserfs, and that there's not protection vs
the i_size updates from writers.
This adds LOOKUP_RENAME_TARGET intent for lookup of rename destination.
LOOKUP_RENAME_TARGET is going to be used like LOOKUP_CREATE. But since
the destination of rename() can be existing directory entry, so it has a
difference. Although that difference doesn't matter in my usage, this
tells it to user of this intent.
This adds __d_instantiate() for users which is already taking
dcache_lock, and replace with it.
The part of d_add_ci() isn't equivalent. But it should be needed
fsnotify_d_instantiate() actually, because the path is to add the
inode to negative dentry. fsnotify_d_instantiate() should be called
after change from negative to positive.

[PATCH vfs-2.6 2/6] vfs: add d_ancestor()
This adds d_ancestor() instead of d_isparent(), then use it.
If new_dentry == old_dentry, is_subdir() returns 1, looks strange.
"new_dentry == old_dentry" is not subdir obviously. But I'm not
checking callers for now, so this keeps current behavior.

[PATCH] Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code.
Some file systems with their own internal locking have problems with the
way that nfsd calls the ->lookup() method from within a filldir function
called from their ->readdir() method. The recursion back into the file
system code can cause deadlock.
XFS has a fairly hackish solution to this which involves doing the
readdir() into a locally-allocated buffer, then going back through it
calling the filldir function afterwards. It's not ideal, but it works.
It's particularly suboptimal because XFS does this for local file
systems too, where it's completely unnecessary.
Copy this hack into the NFS code where it can be used only for NFS
export. In response to feedback, use it unconditionally rather than only
for the affected file systems.

The calling conventions of d_alloc_anon are rather unfortunate for all
users, and it's name is not very descriptive either.
Add d_obtain_alias as a new exported helper that drops the inode
reference in the failure case, too and allows to pass-through NULL
pointers and inodes to allow for tail-calls in the export operations.
Incidentally this helper already existed as a private function in
libfs.c as exportfs_d_alloc so kill that one and switch the callers
to d_obtain_alias.

In the above commit the "acpi.power_nocheck" module parameter is defined
in drivers/acpi/power.c file. As several module parameters using the same ACPI
prefix are defined in the different files(for example: power_nocheck is
defined in drivers/acpi/power.c,debug_layer/debug_level are defined in
drivers/acpi/debug.c) and there exists another module between them, the
warning message will be printed when using the current generic param code.
(In the function of param_sysfs_init).
In fact when ACPI is selected, the drivers/acpi/power will also be compiled
as built-in kernel.So this issue can be fixed by the following approach.
workaround it by adjusting the module link order in drivers/acpi/Makefile.
In such case the module parameter using the same prefix(ACPI) are put together
in the param data section.
Of course the better solution is to fix it in generic param code related
with sysfs.

[CIFS] improve setlease handling
fcntl(F_SETLEASE) currently is not exported by cifs (nor by local file

opened the file not by whether the file is cacheable (oplocked). This
adds the check to make sure that the file is cacheable on the client
before checking whether we can grant the lease locally
(generic_setlease). It also adds a mount option for cifs (locallease)
if the user wants to override this and try to grant leases even

drm/i915: hold dev->struct_mutex and DRM lock during vblank ring operations
To synchronize clip lists with the X server, the DRM lock must be held while
looking at drawable clip lists. To synchronize with other ring access, the
ring mutex must be held while inserting commands into the ring. Failure to
do the first resulted in easy visual corruption when moving windows, and the
second could have corrupted the ring with DRI2.
Grabbing the DRM lock involves using the DRM tasklet mechanism, grabbing the
ring mutex means potentially sleeping. Deal with both of these by always
running the tasklet from a work handler.
Also, protect from clip list changes since the vblank request was queued by
making sure the window has at least one rectangle while looking inside,
preventing oopses .
