9a219bc70b kill do_sync_read/do_sync_write
all remaining instances of aio_{read,write} (all 4 of them) have explicit
->read and ->write resp.; do_sync_read/do_sync_write is never called by
__vfs_read/__vfs_write anymore and no other users had been left.

5d5d568975 make new_sync_{read,write}() static
All places outside of core VFS that checked ->read and ->write for being NULL or
called the methods directly are gone now, so NULL {read,write} with non-NULL
{read,write}_iter will do the right thing in all cases.

fd2f7cb5bc kill struct filename.separate
just make const char iname[] the last member and compare name->name with
name->iname instead of checking name->separate

We need to make sure that out-of-line name doesn't end up allocated adjacent
to struct filename refering to it; fortunately, it's easy to achieve - just
allocate that struct filename with one byte in ->iname[], so that ->iname[0]
will be inside the same object and thus have an address different from that
of out-of-line name [spotted by Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com>]

b2edffdd91 fix mremap() vs. ioctx_kill() race
teach ->mremap() method to return an error and have it fail for
aio mappings in process of being killed

Note that in case of ->mremap() failure we need to undo move_page_tables()
we'd already done; we could call ->mremap() first, but then the failure of
move_page_tables() would require undoing whatever _successful_ ->mremap()
has done, which would be a lot more headache in general.

cae80b305e locks: change lm_get_owner and lm_put_owner prototypes
The current prototypes for these operations are somewhat awkward as they
deal with fl_owners but take struct file_lock arguments. In the future,
we'll want to be able to take references without necessarily dealing
with a struct file_lock.

Change them to take fl_owner_t arguments instead and have the callers
deal with assigning the values to the file_lock structs.

a2f4870697 fs: make sure the timestamps for lazytime inodes eventually get written
Jan Kara pointed out that if there is an inode which is constantly
getting dirtied with I_DIRTY_PAGES, an inode with an updated timestamp
will never be written since inode->dirtied_when is constantly getting
updated.  We fix this by adding an extra field to the inode,
dirtied_time_when, so inodes with a stale dirtytime can get detected
and handled.

In addition, if we have a dirtytime inode caused by an atime update,
and there is no write activity on the file system, we need to have a
secondary system to make sure these inodes get written out.  We do
this by setting up a second delayed work structure which wakes up the
CPU much more rarely compared to writeback_expire_centisecs.

f7ca90b160 dax,ext2: replace the XIP page fault handler with the DAX page fault handler
Instead of calling aops->get_xip_mem from the fault handler, the
filesystem passes a get_block_t that is used to find the appropriate
blocks.

This requires that all architectures implement copy_user_page().  At the
time of writing, mips and arm do not.  Patches exist and are in progress.

289c6aedac dax,ext2: replace ext2_clear_xip_target with dax_clear_blocks
This is practically generic code; other filesystems will want to call it
from other places, but there's nothing ext2-specific about it.

Make it a little more generic by allowing it to take a count of the number
of bytes to zero rather than fixing it to a single page.  Thanks to Dave
Hansen for suggesting that I need to call cond_resched() if zeroing more
than one page.

4101b62435 fs: consolidate {nr,free}_cached_objects args in shrink_control
We are going to make FS shrinkers memcg-aware.  To achieve that, we will
have to pass the memcg to scan to the nr_cached_objects and
free_cached_objects VFS methods, which currently take only the NUMA node
to scan.  Since the shrink_control structure already holds the node, and
the memcg to scan will be added to it when we introduce memcg-aware
vmscan, let us consolidate the methods' arguments in this structure to
keep things clean.

992de5a8ec Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)
Merge misc updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Bite-sized chunks this time, to avoid the MTA ratelimiting woes.

   - fs/notify updates

   - ocfs2

   - some of MM"

That laconic "some MM" is mainly the removal of remap_file_pages(),
which is a big simplification of the VM, and which gets rid of a *lot*
of random cruft and special cases because we no longer support the
non-linear mappings that it used.

From a user interface perspective, nothing has changed, because the
remap_file_pages() syscall still exists, it's just done by emulating the
old behavior by creating a lot of individual small mappings instead of
one non-linear one.

The emulation is slower than the old "native" non-linear mappings, but
nobody really uses or cares about remap_file_pages(), and simplifying
the VM is a big advantage.

c8d78c1823 mm: replace remap_file_pages() syscall with emulation
remap_file_pages(2) was invented to be able efficiently map parts of
huge file into limited 32-bit virtual address space such as in database
workloads.

Nonlinear mappings are pain to support and it seems there's no
legitimate use-cases nowadays since 64-bit systems are widely available.

Let's drop it and get rid of all these special-cased code.

The patch replaces the syscall with emulation which creates new VMA on
each remap_file_pages(), unless they it can be merged with an adjacent
one.

I didn't find *any* real code that uses remap_file_pages(2) to test
emulation impact on.  I've checked Debian code search and source of all
packages in ALT Linux.  No real users: libc wrappers, mentions in
strace, gdb, valgrind and this kind of stuff.

There are few basic tests in LTP for the syscall.  They work just fine
with emulation.

To test performance impact, I've written small test case which
demonstrate pretty much worst case scenario: map 4G shmfs file, write to
begin of every page pgoff of the page, remap pages in reverse order,
read every page.

The test creates 1 million of VMAs if emulation is in use, so I had to
set vm.max_map_count to 1100000 to avoid -ENOMEM.

Before:		23.3 ( +-  4.31% ) seconds
After:		43.9 ( +-  0.85% ) seconds
Slowdown:	1.88x

I believe we can live with that.

Test case:

        #define _GNU_SOURCE
        #include <assert.h>
        #include <stdlib.h>
        #include <stdio.h>

0ae45f63d4 vfs: add support for a lazytime mount option
Add a new mount option which enables a new "lazytime" mode.  This mode
causes atime, mtime, and ctime updates to only be made to the
in-memory version of the inode.  The on-disk times will only get
updated when (a) if the inode needs to be updated for some non-time
related change, (b) if userspace calls fsync(), syncfs() or sync(), or
(c) just before an undeleted inode is evicted from memory.

This is OK according to POSIX because there are no guarantees after a
crash unless userspace explicitly requests via a fsync(2) call.

For workloads which feature a large number of random write to a
preallocated file, the lazytime mount option significantly reduces
writes to the inode table.  The repeated 4k writes to a single block
will result in undesirable stress on flash devices and SMR disk
drives.  Even on conventional HDD's, the repeated writes to the inode
table block will trigger Adjacent Track Interference (ATI) remediation
latencies, which very negatively impact long tail latencies --- which
is a very big deal for web serving tiers (for example).

11afe9f76e fs: add FL_LAYOUT lease type
This (ab-)uses the file locking code to allow filesystems to recall
outstanding pNFS layouts on a file.  This new lease type is similar but
not quite the same as FL_DELEG.  A FL_LAYOUT lease can always be granted,
an a per-filesystem lock (XFS iolock for the initial implementation)
ensures not FL_LAYOUT leases granted when we would need to recall them.

Also included are changes that allow multiple outstanding read
leases of different types on the same file as long as they have a
differnt owner.  This wasn't a problem until now as nfsd never set
FL_LEASE leases, and no one else used FL_DELEG leases, but given that
nfsd will also issues FL_LAYOUT leases we will have to handle it now.

55422d0bd2 audit: replace getname()/putname() hacks with reference counters
In order to ensure that filenames are not released before the audit
subsystem is done with the strings there are a number of hacks built
into the fs and audit subsystems around getname() and putname().  To
say these hacks are "ugly" would be kind.

This patch removes the filename hackery in favor of a more
conventional reference count based approach.  The diffstat below tells
most of the story; lots of audit/fs specific code is replaced with a
traditional reference count based approach that is easily understood,
even by those not familiar with the audit and/or fs subsystems.

b4caecd480 fs: introduce f_op->mmap_capabilities for nommu mmap support
Since "BDI: Provide backing device capability information [try #3]" the
backing_dev_info structure also provides flags for the kind of mmap
operation available in a nommu environment, which is entirely unrelated
to it's original purpose.

Introduce a new nommu-only file operation to provide this information to
the nommu mmap code instead.  Splitting this from the backing_dev_info
structure allows to remove lots of backing_dev_info instance that aren't
otherwise needed, and entirely gets rid of the concept of providing a
backing_dev_info for a character device.  It also removes the need for
the mtd_inodefs filesystem.

4a075e39c8 locks: add a new struct file_locking_context pointer to struct inode
The current scheme of using the i_flock list is really difficult to
manage. There is also a legitimate desire for a per-inode spinlock to
manage these lists that isn't the i_lock.

Start conversion to a new scheme to eventually replace the old i_flock
list with a new "file_lock_context" object.

We start by adding a new i_flctx to struct inode. For now, it lives in
parallel with i_flock list, but will eventually replace it. The idea is
to allocate a structure to sit in that pointer and act as a locus for
all things file locking.

We allocate a file_lock_context for an inode when the first lock is
added to it, and it's only freed when the inode is freed. We use the
i_lock to protect the assignment, but afterward it should mostly be
accessed locklessly.

75069f2b5b vfs: renumber FMODE_NONOTIFY and add to uniqueness check
Fix clashing values for O_PATH and FMODE_NONOTIFY on sparc.  The
clashing O_PATH value was added in commit 5229645bdc ("vfs: add
nonconflicting values for O_PATH") but this can't be changed as it is
user-visible.

FMODE_NONOTIFY is only used internally in the kernel, but it is in the
same numbering space as the other O_* flags, as indicated by the comment
at the top of include/uapi/asm-generic/fcntl.h (and its use in
fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify_user.c).  So renumber it to avoid the clash.

All of this has happened before (commit 12ed2e36c9: "fanotify:
FMODE_NONOTIFY and __O_SYNC in sparc conflict"), and all of this will
happen again -- so update the uniqueness check in fcntl_init() to
include __FMODE_NONOTIFY.

state and restore one back exactly as it was. One of the tasks' state
bits is rings set up with io_setup() call. There's (almost) no problems
in dumping them, there's a problem restoring them -- if I dump a task
with aio ring originally mapped at address A, I want to restore one
back at exactly the same address A. Unfortunately, the io_setup() does
not allow for that -- it mmaps the ring at whatever place mm finds
appropriate (it calls do_mmap_pgoff() with zero address and without
the MAP_FIXED flag).

To make restore possible I'm going to mremap() the freshly created ring
into the address A (under which it was seen before dump). The problem is
that the ring's virtual address is passed back to the user-space as the
context ID and this ID is then used as search key by all the other io_foo()
calls. Reworking this ID to be just some integer doesn't seem to work, as
this value is already used by libaio as a pointer using which this library
accesses memory for aio meta-data.

So, to make restore work we need to make sure that

a) ring is mapped at desired virtual address
b) kioctx->user_id matches this value

Having said that, the patch makes mremap() on aio region update the
kioctx's user_id and mmap_base values.

Here appears the 2nd issue I mentioned in the beginning of this mail.
If (regardless of the C/R dances I do) someone creates an io context
with io_setup(), then mremap()-s the ring and then destroys the context,
the kill_ioctx() routine will call munmap() on wrong (old) address.
This will result in a) aio ring remaining in memory and b) some other
vma get unexpectedly unmapped.

What do you think?

51f39a1f0c syscalls: implement execveat() system call
This patchset adds execveat(2) for x86, and is derived from Meredydd
Luff's patch from Sept 2012 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/11/528).

The primary aim of adding an execveat syscall is to allow an
implementation of fexecve(3) that does not rely on the /proc filesystem,
at least for executables (rather than scripts).  The current glibc version
of fexecve(3) is implemented via /proc, which causes problems in sandboxed
or otherwise restricted environments.

Given the desire for a /proc-free fexecve() implementation, HPA suggested
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/556) that an execveat(2) syscall would be
an appropriate generalization.

Also, having a new syscall means that it can take a flags argument without
back-compatibility concerns.  The current implementation just defines the
AT_EMPTY_PATH and AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flags, but other flags could be
added in future -- for example, flags for new namespaces (as suggested at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/474).

Related history:
 - https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/12/27/123 is an example of someone
   realizing that fexecve() is likely to fail in a chroot environment.
 - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=514043 covered
   documenting the /proc requirement of fexecve(3) in its manpage, to
   "prevent other people from wasting their time".
 - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=241609 described a
   problem where a process that did setuid() could not fexecve()
   because it no longer had access to /proc/self/fd; this has since
   been fixed.

This patch (of 4):

Add a new execveat(2) system call.  execveat() is to execve() as openat()
is to open(): it takes a file descriptor that refers to a directory, and
resolves the filename relative to that.

In addition, if the filename is empty and AT_EMPTY_PATH is specified,
execveat() executes the file to which the file descriptor refers.  This
replicates the functionality of fexecve(), which is a system call in other
UNIXen, but in Linux glibc it depends on opening "/proc/self/fd/<fd>" (and
so relies on /proc being mounted).

The filename fed to the executed program as argv[0] (or the name of the
script fed to a script interpreter) will be of the form "/dev/fd/<fd>"
(for an empty filename) or "/dev/fd/<fd>/<filename>", effectively
reflecting how the executable was found.  This does however mean that
execution of a script in a /proc-less environment won't work; also, script
execution via an O_CLOEXEC file descriptor fails (as the file will not be
accessible after exec).

Based on patches by Meredydd Luff.

c8c06efa8b mm: convert i_mmap_mutex to rwsem
The i_mmap_mutex is a close cousin of the anon vma lock, both protecting
similar data, one for file backed pages and the other for anon memory.  To
this end, this lock can also be a rwsem.  In addition, there are some
important opportunities to share the lock when there are no tree
modifications.

This conversion is straightforward.  For now, all users take the write
lock.

8b28f621be mm,fs: introduce helpers around the i_mmap_mutex
This series is a continuation of the conversion of the i_mmap_mutex to
rwsem, following what we have for the anon memory counterpart.  With
Hugh's feedback from the first iteration.

Ultimately, the most obvious paths that require exclusive ownership of the
lock is when we modify the VMA interval tree, via
vma_interval_tree_insert() and vma_interval_tree_remove() families.  Cases
such as unmapping, where the ptes content is changed but the tree remains
untouched should make it safe to share the i_mmap_rwsem.

As such, the code of course is straightforward, however the devil is very
much in the details.  While its been tested on a number of workloads
without anything exploding, I would not be surprised if there are some
less documented/known assumptions about the lock that could suffer from
these changes.  Or maybe I'm just missing something, but either way I
believe its at the point where it could use more eyes and hopefully some
time in linux-next.

Because the lock type conversion is the heart of this patchset,
its worth noting a few comparisons between mutex vs rwsem (xadd):

  (i) Same size, no extra footprint.

  (ii) Both have CONFIG_XXX_SPIN_ON_OWNER capabilities for
       exclusive lock ownership.

  (iii) Both can be slightly unfair wrt exclusive ownership, with
        writer lock stealing properties, not necessarily respecting
        FIFO order for granting the lock when contended.

  (iv) Mutexes can be slightly faster than rwsems when
       the lock is non-contended.

  (v) Both suck at performance for debug (slowpaths), which
      shouldn't matter anyway.

Sharing the lock is obviously beneficial, and sem writer ownership is
close enough to mutexes.  The biggest winner of these changes is
migration.

As for concrete numbers, the following performance results are for a
4-socket 60-core IvyBridge-EX with 130Gb of RAM.

Both alltests and disk (xfs+ramdisk) workloads of aim7 suite do quite well
with this set, with a steady ~60% throughput (jpm) increase for alltests
and up to ~30% for disk for high amounts of concurrency.  Lower counts of
workload users (< 100) does not show much difference at all, so at least
no regressions.

In addition, a 67.5% increase in successfully migrated NUMA pages, thus
improving node locality.

The patch layout is simple but designed for bisection (in case reversion
is needed if the changes break upstream) and easier review:

o Patches 1-4 convert the i_mmap lock from mutex to rwsem.
o Patches 5-10 share the lock in specific paths, each patch
  details the rationale behind why it should be safe.

This patchset has been tested with: postgres 9.4 (with brand new hugetlb
support), hugetlbfs test suite (all tests pass, in fact more tests pass
with these changes than with an upstream kernel), ltp, aim7 benchmarks,
memcached and iozone with the -B option for mmap'ing.  *Untested* paths
are nommu, memory-failure, uprobes and xip.

This patch (of 8):

Various parts of the kernel acquire and release this mutex, so add
i_mmap_lock_write() and immap_unlock_write() helper functions that will
encapsulate this logic.  The next patch will make use of these.

bd9b51e79c make default ->i_fop have ->open() fail with ENXIO
As it is, default ->i_fop has NULL ->open() (along with all other methods).
The only case where it matters is reopening (via procfs symlink) a file that
didn't get its ->f_op from ->i_fop - anything else will have ->i_fop assigned
to something sane (default would fail on read/write/ioctl/etc.).

	Unfortunately, such case exists - alloc_file() users, especially
anon_get_file() ones.  There we have tons of opened files of very different
kinds sharing the same inode.  As the result, attempt to reopen those via
procfs succeeds and you get a descriptor you can't do anything with.

	Moreover, in case of sockets we set ->i_fop that will only be used
on such reopen attempts - and put a failing ->open() into it to make sure
those do not succeed.

	It would be simpler to put such ->open() into default ->i_fop and leave
it unchanged both for anon inode (as we do anyway) and for socket ones.  Result:
	* everything going through do_dentry_open() works as it used to
	* sock_no_open() kludge is gone
	* attempts to reopen anon-inode files fail as they really ought to
	* ditto for aio_private_file()
	* ditto for perfmon - this one actually tried to imitate sock_no_open()
trick, but failed to set ->i_fop, so in the current tree reopens succeed and
yield completely useless descriptor.  Intent clearly had been to fail with
-ENXIO on such reopens; now it actually does.
	* everything else that used alloc_file() keeps working - it has ->i_fop
set for its inodes anyway

Pull the beginning of seq_file cleanup from Steven:
  "I'm looking to clean up the seq_file code and to eventually merge the
  trace_seq code with seq_file as well, since they basically do the same thing.

  Part of this process is to remove the return code of seq_printf() and friends
  as they are rather inconsistent. It is better to use the new function
  seq_has_overflowed() if you want to stop processing when the buffer
  is full. Note, if the buffer is full, the seq_file code will throw away
  the contents, allocate a bigger buffer, and then call your code again
  to fill in the data. The only thing that breaking out of the function
  early does is to save a little time which is probably never noticed.

  I started with patches from Joe Perches and modified them as well.
  There's many more places that need to be updated before we can convert
  seq_printf() and friends to return void. But this patch set introduces
  the seq_has_overflowed() and does some initial updates."

48b6bca6b7 fs: add freeze_super/thaw_super fs hooks
Currently, freezing a filesystem involves calling freeze_super, which locks
sb->s_umount and then calls the fs-specific freeze_fs hook. This makes it
hard for gfs2 (and potentially other cluster filesystems) to use the vfs
freezing code to do freezes on all the cluster nodes.

In order to communicate that a freeze has been requested, and to make sure
that only one node is trying to freeze at a time, gfs2 uses a glock
(sd_freeze_gl). The problem is that there is no hook for gfs2 to acquire
this lock before calling freeze_super. This means that two nodes can
attempt to freeze the filesystem by both calling freeze_super, acquiring
the sb->s_umount lock, and then attempting to grab the cluster glock
sd_freeze_gl. Only one will succeed, and the other will be stuck in
freeze_super, making it impossible to finish freezing the node.

To solve this problem, this patch adds the freeze_super and thaw_super
hooks.  If a filesystem implements these hooks, they are called instead of
the vfs freeze_super and thaw_super functions. This means that every
filesystem that implements these hooks must call the vfs freeze_super and
thaw_super functions itself within the hook function to make use of the vfs
freezing code.

2d0fa46791 quota: Use function to provide i_dquot pointers
i_dquot array is used by relatively few filesystems (ext?, ocfs2, jfs,
reiserfs) so it is beneficial to move this array to fs-private part of
the inode. We cannot just pass quota pointers from filesystems to quota
functions because during quotaon and quotaoff we have to traverse list
of all inodes and manipulate i_dquot pointers for each inode. So we
provide a function which generic quota code can use to get pointer to
the i_dquot array from the filesystem.

b2de525f09 Return short read or 0 at end of a raw device, not EIO
Author: David Jeffery <djeffery@redhat.com>
Changes to the basic direct I/O code have broken the raw driver when reading
to the end of a raw device.  Instead of returning a short read for a read that
extends partially beyond the device's end or 0 when at the end of the device,
these reads now return EIO.

The raw driver needs the same end of device handling as was added for normal
block devices.  Using blkdev_read_iter, which has the needed size checks,
prevents the EIO conditions at the end of the device.

69c433ed2e fs: limit filesystem stacking depth
Add a simple read-only counter to super_block that indicates how deep this
is in the stack of filesystems.  Previously ecryptfs was the only stackable
filesystem and it explicitly disallowed multiple layers of itself.

Overlayfs, however, can be stacked recursively and also may be stacked
on top of ecryptfs or vice versa.

To limit the kernel stack usage we must limit the depth of the
filesystem stack.  Initially the limit is set to 2.

 - no userspace API changes (e.g. trivial to make backups of upper layer

1c7dd2ff43 locks: define a lm_setup handler for leases
...and move the fasync setup into it for fcntl lease calls. At the same
time, change the semantics of how the file_lock double-pointer is
handled. Up until now, on a successful lease return you got a pointer to
the lock on the list. This is bad, since that pointer can no longer be
relied on as valid once the inode->i_lock has been released.

Change the code to instead just zero out the pointer if the lease we
passed in ended up being used. Then the callers can just check to see
if it's NULL after the call and free it if it isn't.

The priv argument has the same semantics. The lm_setup function can
zero the pointer out to signal to the caller that it should not be
freed after the function returns.

4bb5f5d939 mm: allow drivers to prevent new writable mappings
This patch (of 6):

The i_mmap_writable field counts existing writable mappings of an
address_space.  To allow drivers to prevent new writable mappings, make
this counter signed and prevent new writable mappings if it is negative.
This is modelled after i_writecount and DENYWRITE.

This will be required by the shmem-sealing infrastructure to prevent any
new writable mappings after the WRITE seal has been set.  In case there
exists a writable mapping, this operation will fail with EBUSY.

Note that we rely on the fact that iff you already own a writable mapping,
you can increase the counter without using the helpers.  This is the same
that we do for i_writecount.

17fa388ddc locks: typedef fl_owner_t to void *
fl_owner_t is a cookie that can store all kinds of different pointers,
so don't pretends it points to a file structure.

For now just change the typedef, but as a follow on this will allow
to get rids of lots of casts and eventually the typedef itself.

ac13a829f6 fs/libfs.c: add generic data flush to fsync
Description by Jan Kara:
 "A lot of older filesystems don't properly flush volatile disk caches
  on fsync(2) which can lead to loss of fsynced data after power failure.

This patch makes generic_file_fsync() issue proper cache flush to fix the
problem.  Sysadmin can use /sys/devices/.../cache_type to tell the system
it should not send the cache flush."

293bc9822f new methods: ->read_iter() and ->write_iter()
Beginning to introduce those.  Just the callers for now, and it's
clumsier than it'll eventually become; once we finish converting
aio_read and aio_write instances, the things will get nicer.

For now, these guys are in parallel to ->aio_read() and ->aio_write();
they take iocb and iov_iter, with everything in iov_iter already
validated.  File offset is passed in iocb->ki_pos, iov/nr_segs -
in iov_iter.

Main concerns in that series are stack footprint and ability to
split the damn thing cleanly.

7f7f25e82d replace checking for ->read/->aio_read presence with check in ->f_mode
Since we are about to introduce new methods (read_iter/write_iter), the
tests in a bunch of places would have to grow inconveniently.  Check
once (at open() time) and store results in ->f_mode as FMODE_CAN_READ
and FMODE_CAN_WRITE resp.  It might end up being a temporary measure -
once everything switches from ->aio_{read,write} to ->{read,write}_iter
it might make sense to return to open-coded checks.  We'll see...

91b0abe36a mm + fs: store shadow entries in page cache
Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon
evicting the real page.  As those pages are found from the LRU, an
iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently.  At this point,
reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing
code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty.

Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets
under the tree lock before doing the final truncate.  Reclaim will check
for this flag before installing shadow pages.

trying to do I/O on it.

Avoid this problem by plumbing some knowledge of file-private locks into

24cbe7845e locks: close potential race between setlease and open
As Al Viro points out, there is an unlikely, but possible race between
opening a file and setting a lease on it. generic_add_lease is done with
the i_lock held, but the inode->i_flock check in break_lease is
lockless. It's possible for another task doing an open to do the entire
pathwalk and call break_lease between the point where generic_add_lease
checks for a conflicting open and adds the lease to the list. If this
occurs, we can end up with a lease set on the file with a conflicting
open.

To guard against that, check again for a conflicting open after adding
the lease to the i_flock list. If the above race occurs, then we can
simply unwind the lease setting and return -EAGAIN.

Because we take dentry references and acquire write access on the file
before calling break_lease, we know that if the i_flock list is empty
when the open caller goes to check it then the necessary refcounts have
already been incremented. Thus the additional check for a conflicting
open will see that there is one and the setlease call will fail.

9c225f2655 vfs: atomic f_pos accesses as per POSIX
Our write() system call has always been atomic in the sense that you get
the expected thread-safe contiguous write, but we haven't actually
guaranteed that concurrent writes are serialized wrt f_pos accesses, so
threads (or processes) that share a file descriptor and use "write()"
concurrently would quite likely overwrite each others data.

This violates POSIX.1-2008/SUSv4 Section XSI 2.9.7 that says:

 "2.9.7 Thread Interactions with Regular File Operations

  All of the following functions shall be atomic with respect to each
  other in the effects specified in POSIX.1-2008 when they operate on
  regular files or symbolic links: [...]"

and one of the effects is the file position update.

This unprotected file position behavior is not new behavior, and nobody
has ever cared.  Until now.  Yongzhi Pan reported unexpected behavior to
Michael Kerrisk that was due to this.

This resolves the issue with a f_pos-specific lock that is taken by
read/write/lseek on file descriptors that may be shared across threads
or processes.

d311d79de3 fix O_SYNC|O_APPEND syncing the wrong range on write()
It actually goes back to 2004 ([PATCH] Concurrent O_SYNC write support)
when sync_page_range() had been introduced; generic_file_write{,v}() correctly
synced
	pos_after_write - written .. pos_after_write - 1
but generic_file_aio_write() synced
	pos_before_write .. pos_before_write + written - 1
instead.  Which is not the same thing with O_APPEND, obviously.
A couple of years later correct variant had been killed off when
everything switched to use of generic_file_aio_write().

All users of generic_file_aio_write() are affected, and the same bug
has been copied into other instances of ->aio_write().

The fix is trivial; the only subtle point is that generic_write_sync()
ought to be inlined to avoid calculations useless for the majority of
calls.

c4ad8f98be execve: use 'struct filename *' for executable name passing
This changes 'do_execve()' to get the executable name as a 'struct
filename', and to free it when it is done.  This is what the normal
users want, and it simplifies and streamlines their error handling.

The controlled lifetime of the executable name also fixes a
use-after-free problem with the trace_sched_process_exec tracepoint: the
lifetime of the passed-in string for kernel users was not at all
obvious, and the user-mode helper code used UMH_WAIT_EXEC to serialize
the pathname allocation lifetime with the execve() having finished,
which in turn meant that the trace point that happened after
mm_release() of the old process VM ended up using already free'd memory.

To solve the kernel string lifetime issue, this simply introduces
"getname_kernel()" that works like the normal user-space getname()
function, except with the source coming from kernel memory.

As Oleg points out, this also means that we could drop the tcomm[] array
from 'struct linux_binprm', since the pathname lifetime now covers
setup_new_exec().  That would be a separate cleanup.

b21996e36c locks: break delegations on unlink
We need to break delegations on any operation that changes the set of
links pointing to an inode.  Start with unlink.

Such operations also hold the i_mutex on a parent directory.  Breaking a
delegation may require waiting for a timeout (by default 90 seconds) in
the case of a unresponsive NFS client.  To avoid blocking all directory
operations, we therefore drop locks before waiting for the delegation.
The logic then looks like:

	acquire locks
	...
	test for delegation; if found:
		take reference on inode
		release locks
		wait for delegation break
		drop reference on inode
		retry

It is possible this could never terminate.  (Even if we take precautions
to prevent another delegation being acquired on the same inode, we could
get a different inode on each retry.)  But this seems very unlikely.

The initial test for a delegation happens after the lock on the target
inode is acquired, but the directory inode may have been acquired
further up the call stack.  We therefore add a "struct inode **"
argument to any intervening functions, which we use to pass the inode
back up to the caller in the case it needs a delegation synchronously
broken.

f1fe29b4a0 NFS: Use i_writecount to control whether to get an fscache cookie in nfs_open()
Use i_writecount to control whether to get an fscache cookie in nfs_open() as
NFS does not do write caching yet.  I *think* this is the cause of a problem
encountered by Mark Moseley whereby __fscache_uncache_page() gets a NULL
pointer dereference because cookie->def is NULL:

The code at the instruction pointer was disassembled:

> (gdb) disas __fscache_uncache_page
> Dump of assembler code for function __fscache_uncache_page:
> ...
> 0xffffffff812a18ff <+31>: mov 0x48(%rbx),%rax

> 0xffffffff812a1907 <+39>: je 0xffffffff812a19cd <__fscache_uncache_page+237>

These instructions make up:

	ASSERTCMP(cookie->def->type, !=, FSCACHE_COOKIE_TYPE_INDEX);

That cmpb is the faulting instruction (%rax is 0).  So cookie->def is NULL -
which presumably means that the cookie has already been at least partway
through __fscache_relinquish_cookie().

What I think may be happening is something like a three-way race on the same
file:

	PROCESS 1	PROCESS 2	PROCESS 3
	===============	===============	===============
	open(O_TRUNC|O_WRONLY)
			open(O_RDONLY)
					open(O_WRONLY)
	-->nfs_open()
	-->nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()
	nfs_fscache_inode_lock()
	nfs_fscache_disable_inode_cookie()
	__fscache_relinquish_cookie()
	nfs_inode->fscache = NULL
	<--nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()

			-->nfs_open()
			-->nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()
			nfs_fscache_inode_lock()
			nfs_fscache_enable_inode_cookie()
			__fscache_acquire_cookie()
			nfs_inode->fscache = cookie
			<--nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()
	<--nfs_open()
	-->nfs_setattr()
	...
	...
	-->nfs_invalidate_page()
	-->__nfs_fscache_invalidate_page()
	cookie = nfsi->fscache
					-->nfs_open()
					-->nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()
					nfs_fscache_inode_lock()
					nfs_fscache_disable_inode_cookie()
					-->__fscache_relinquish_cookie()
	-->__fscache_uncache_page(cookie)
	<crash>
					<--__fscache_relinquish_cookie()
					nfs_inode->fscache = NULL
					<--nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()

What is needed is something to prevent process #2 from reacquiring the cookie
- and I think checking i_writecount should do the trick.

It's also possible to have a two-way race on this if the file is opened
O_TRUNC|O_RDONLY instead.

0a234c6dcb shrinker: convert superblock shrinkers to new API
Convert superblock shrinker to use the new count/scan API, and propagate
the API changes through to the filesystem callouts.  The filesystem
callouts already use a count/scan API, so it's just changing counters to
longs to match the VM API.

This requires the dentry and inode shrinker callouts to be converted to
the count/scan API.  This is mainly a mechanical change.

19156840e3 dentry: move to per-sb LRU locks
With the dentry LRUs being per-sb structures, there is no real need for
a global dentry_lru_lock. The locking can be made more fine-grained by
moving to a per-sb LRU lock, isolating the LRU operations of different
filesytsems completely from each other. The need for this is independent
of any performance consideration that may arise: in the interest of
abstracting the lru operations away, it is mandatory that each lru works
around its own lock instead of a global lock for all of them.

3942c07ccf fs: bump inode and dentry counters to long
This series reworks our current object cache shrinking infrastructure in
two main ways:

 * Noticing that a lot of users copy and paste their own version of LRU
   lists for objects, we put some effort in providing a generic version.
   It is modeled after the filesystem users: dentries, inodes, and xfs
   (for various tasks), but we expect that other users could benefit in
   the near future with little or no modification.  Let us know if you
   have any issues.

 * The underlying list_lru being proposed automatically and
   transparently keeps the elements in per-node lists, and is able to
   manipulate the node lists individually.  Given this infrastructure, we
   are able to modify the up-to-now hammer called shrink_slab to proceed
   with node-reclaim instead of always searching memory from all over like
   it has been doing.

Per-node lru lists are also expected to lead to less contention in the lru
locks on multi-node scans, since we are now no longer fighting for a
global lock.  The locks usually disappear from the profilers with this
change.

Although we have no official benchmarks for this version - be our guest to
independently evaluate this - earlier versions of this series were
performance tested (details at
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/100537) yielding no
visible performance regressions while yielding a better qualitative
behavior in NUMA machines.

With this infrastructure in place, we can use the list_lru entry point to
provide memcg isolation and per-memcg targeted reclaim.  Historically,
those two pieces of work have been posted together.  This version presents
only the infrastructure work, deferring the memcg work for a later time,
so we can focus on getting this part tested.  You can see more about the
history of such work at http://lwn.net/Articles/552769/

Dave Chinner (18):
  dcache: convert dentry_stat.nr_unused to per-cpu counters
  dentry: move to per-sb LRU locks
  dcache: remove dentries from LRU before putting on dispose list
  mm: new shrinker API
  shrinker: convert superblock shrinkers to new API
  list: add a new LRU list type
  inode: convert inode lru list to generic lru list code.
  dcache: convert to use new lru list infrastructure
  list_lru: per-node list infrastructure
  shrinker: add node awareness
  fs: convert inode and dentry shrinking to be node aware
  xfs: convert buftarg LRU to generic code
  xfs: rework buffer dispose list tracking
  xfs: convert dquot cache lru to list_lru
  fs: convert fs shrinkers to new scan/count API
  drivers: convert shrinkers to new count/scan API
  shrinker: convert remaining shrinkers to count/scan API
  shrinker: Kill old ->shrink API.

Glauber Costa (7):
  fs: bump inode and dentry counters to long
  super: fix calculation of shrinkable objects for small numbers
  list_lru: per-node API
  vmscan: per-node deferred work
  i915: bail out earlier when shrinker cannot acquire mutex
  hugepage: convert huge zero page shrinker to new shrinker API
  list_lru: dynamically adjust node arrays

This patch:

There are situations in very large machines in which we can have a large
quantity of dirty inodes, unused dentries, etc.  This is particularly true
when umounting a filesystem, where eventually since every live object will
eventually be discarded.

Dave Chinner reported a problem with this while experimenting with the
shrinker revamp patchset.  So we believe it is time for a change.  This
patch just moves int to longs.  Machines where it matters should have a
big long anyway.

aac34df117 fs: remove vfs_follow_link
For a long time no filesystem has been using vfs_follow_link, and as seen
by recent filesystem submissions any new use is accidental as well.

Remove vfs_follow_link, document the replacement in
Documentation/filesystems/porting and also rename __vfs_follow_link
to match its only caller better.

7b7a8665ed direct-io: Implement generic deferred AIO completions
Add support to the core direct-io code to defer AIO completions to user
context using a workqueue.  This replaces opencoded and less efficient
code in XFS and ext4 (we save a memory allocation for each direct IO)
and will be needed to properly support O_(D)SYNC for AIO.

The communication between the filesystem and the direct I/O code requires
a new buffer head flag, which is a bit ugly but not avoidable until the
direct I/O code stops abusing the buffer_head structure for communicating
with the filesystems.

Currently this creates a per-superblock unbound workqueue for these
completions, which is taken from an earlier patch by Jan Kara.  I'm
not really convinced about this use and would prefer a "normal" global
workqueue with a high concurrency limit, but this needs further discussion.

JK: Fixed ext4 part, dynamic allocation of the workqueue.

e51db73532 userns: Better restrictions on when proc and sysfs can be mounted
Rely on the fact that another flavor of the filesystem is already
mounted and do not rely on state in the user namespace.

Verify that the mounted filesystem is not covered in any significant
way.  I would love to verify that the previously mounted filesystem
has no mounts on top but there are at least the directories
/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc and /sys/fs/cgroup/ that exist explicitly
for other filesystems to mount on top of.

Refactor the test into a function named fs_fully_visible and call that
function from the mount routines of proc and sysfs.  This makes this
test local to the filesystems involved and the results current of when
the mounts take place, removing a weird threading of the user
namespace, the mount namespace and the filesystems themselves.

7012b02a2b locks: move file_lock_list to a set of percpu hlist_heads and convert file_lock_lock to an lglock
The file_lock_list is only used for /proc/locks. The vastly common case
is for locks to be put onto the list and come off again, without ever
being traversed.

Help optimize for this use-case by moving to percpu hlist_head-s. At the
same time, we can make the locking less contentious by moving to an
lglock. When iterating over the lists for /proc/locks, we must take the
global lock and then iterate over each CPU's list in turn.

This change necessitates a new fl_link_cpu field to keep track of which
CPU the entry is on. On x86_64 at least, this field is placed within an
existing hole in the struct to avoid growing the size.

b45972265f mm: vmscan: take page buffers dirty and locked state into account
Page reclaim keeps track of dirty and under writeback pages and uses it
to determine if wait_iff_congested() should stall or if kswapd should
begin writing back pages.  This fails to account for buffer pages that
can be under writeback but not PageWriteback which is the case for
filesystems like ext3 ordered mode.  Furthermore, PageDirty buffer pages
can have all the buffers clean and writepage does no IO so it should not
be accounted as congested.

This patch adds an address_space operation that filesystems may
optionally use to check if a page is really dirty or really under
writeback.  An implementation is provided for for buffer_heads is added
and used for block operations and ext3 in ordered mode.  By default the
page flags are obeyed.

Credit goes to Jan Kara for identifying that the page flags alone are
not sufficient for ext3 and sanity checking a number of ideas on how the
problem could be addressed.

46a1c2c7ae vfs: export lseek_execute() to modules
For those file systems(btrfs/ext4/ocfs2/tmpfs) that support
SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE functions, we end up handling the similar
matter in lseek_execute() to update the current file offset
to the desired offset if it is valid, ceph also does the
simliar things at ceph_llseek().

To reduce the duplications, this patch make lseek_execute()
public accessible so that we can call it directly from the
underlying file systems.

Thanks Dave Chinner for this suggestion.

[AV: call it vfs_setpos(), don't bring the removed 'inode' argument back]

- Add kernel-doc comments for lseek_execute()
- Call lseek_execute() in ceph->llseek()

3999e49364 locks: add a new "lm_owner_key" lock operation
Currently, the hashing that the locking code uses to add these values
to the blocked_hash is simply calculated using fl_owner field. That's
valid in most cases except for server-side lockd, which validates the
owner of a lock based on fl_owner and fl_pid.

In the case where you have a small number of NFS clients doing a lot
of locking between different processes, you could end up with all
the blocked requests sitting in a very small number of hash buckets.

Add a new lm_owner_key operation to the lock_manager_operations that
will generate an unsigned long to use as the key in the hashtable.
That function is only implemented for server-side lockd, and simply
XORs the fl_owner and fl_pid.

139ca04ee5 locks: convert fl_link to a hlist_node
Testing has shown that iterating over the blocked_list for deadlock
detection turns out to be a bottleneck. In order to alleviate that,
begin the process of turning it into a hashtable. We start by turning
the fl_link into a hlist_node and the global lists into hlists. A later
patch will do the conversion of the blocked_list to a hashtable.

1c8c601a8c locks: protect most of the file_lock handling with i_lock
Having a global lock that protects all of this code is a clear
scalability problem. Instead of doing that, move most of the code to be
protected by the i_lock instead. The exceptions are the global lists
that the ->fl_link sits on, and the ->fl_block list.

->fl_link is what connects these structures to the
global lists, so we must ensure that we hold those locks when iterating
over or updating these lists.

Furthermore, sound deadlock detection requires that we hold the
blocked_list state steady while checking for loops. We also must ensure
that the search and update to the list are atomic.

For the checking and insertion side of the blocked_list, push the
acquisition of the global lock into __posix_lock_file and ensure that
checking and update of the  blocked_list is done without dropping the
lock in between.

On the removal side, when waking up blocked lock waiters, take the
global lock before walking the blocked list and dequeue the waiters from
the global list prior to removal from the fl_block list.

With this, deadlock detection should be race free while we minimize
excessive file_lock_lock thrashing.

Finally, in order to avoid a lock inversion problem when handling
/proc/locks output we must ensure that manipulations of the fl_block
list are also protected by the file_lock_lock.

1a9e64a711 cifs: use posix_unblock_lock instead of locks_delete_block
commit 66189be74 (CIFS: Fix VFS lock usage for oplocked files) exported
the locks_delete_block symbol. There's already an exported helper
function that provides this capability however, so make cifs use that
instead and turn locks_delete_block back into a static function.

Note that if fl->fl_next == NULL then this lock has already been through
locks_delete_block(), so we should be OK to ignore an ENOENT error here
and simply not retry the lock.

d47992f86b mm: change invalidatepage prototype to accept length
Currently there is no way to truncate partial page where the end
truncate point is not at the end of the page. This is because it was not
needed and the functionality was enough for file system truncate
operation to work properly. However more file systems now support punch
hole feature and it can benefit from mm supporting truncating page just
up to the certain point.

Specifically, with this functionality truncate_inode_pages_range() can
be changed so it supports truncating partial page at the end of the
range (currently it will BUG_ON() if 'end' is not at the end of the
page).

This commit changes the invalidatepage() address space operation
prototype to accept range to be invalidated and update all the instances
for it.

We also change the block_invalidatepage() in the same way and actually
make a use of the new length argument implementing range invalidation.

Actual file system implementations will follow except the file systems
where the changes are really simple and should not change the behaviour
in any way .Implementation for truncate_page_range() which will be able
to accept page unaligned ranges will follow as well.

5ae98f1589 fs: Fix hang with BSD accounting on frozen filesystem
When BSD process accounting is enabled and logs information to a
filesystem which gets frozen, system easily becomes unusable because
each attempt to account process information blocks. Thus e.g. every task
gets blocked in exit.

It seems better to drop accounting information (which can already happen
when filesystem is running out of space) instead of locking system up.
So we just skip the write if the filesystem is frozen.

74e3d1e17b include/linux/fs.h: disable preempt when acquire i_size_seqcount write lock
Two rt tasks bind to one CPU core.

The higher priority rt task A preempts a lower priority rt task B which
has already taken the write seq lock, and then the higher priority rt
task A try to acquire read seq lock, it's doomed to lockup.

rt task A with lower priority: call write
i_size_write                                        rt task B with higher priority: call sync, and preempt task A
  write_seqcount_begin(&inode->i_size_seqcount);    i_size_read
  inode->i_size = i_size;                             read_seqcount_begin <-- lockup here...

So disable preempt when acquiring every i_size_seqcount *write* lock will
cure the problem.

7f78e03513 fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules.
Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-"
and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules
to match.

A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code
that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many
users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel.

Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible
modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially
making things safer with no real cost.

Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which
filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf
with blacklist and alias directives.  Allowing simple, safe,
well understood work-arounds to known problematic software.

This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem
name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading
would not work.  While writing this patch I saw a handful of such
cases.  The most significant being autofs that lives in the module
autofs4.

This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request
module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and
people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case
the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module.

After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any
particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond
making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem
module.  The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module()
without regards to the users permissions.  In general all a filesystem
module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep.
Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a
filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted.  In a user
namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT,
which most filesystems do not set today.

ecf3d1f1aa vfs: kill FS_REVAL_DOT by adding a d_weak_revalidate dentry op
The following set of operations on a NFS client and server will cause

    server# mkdir a
    client# cd a
    server# mv a a.bak
    client# sleep 30  # (or whatever the dir attrcache timeout is)
    client# stat .
    stat: cannot stat `.': Stale NFS file handle

Obviously, we should not be getting an ESTALE error back there since the
inode still exists on the server. The problem is that the lookup code
will call d_revalidate on the dentry that "." refers to, because NFS has
FS_REVAL_DOT set.

nfs_lookup_revalidate will see that the parent directory has changed and
will try to reverify the dentry by redoing a LOOKUP. That of course
fails, so the lookup code returns ESTALE.

The problem here is that d_revalidate is really a bad fit for this case.
What we really want to know at this point is whether the inode is still
good or not, but we don't really care what name it goes by or whether
the dcache is still valid.

Add a new d_op->d_weak_revalidate operation and have complete_walk call
that instead of d_revalidate. The intent there is to allow for a
"weaker" d_revalidate that just checks to see whether the inode is still
good. This is also gives us an opportunity to kill off the FS_REVAL_DOT
special casing.

[AV: changed method name, added note in porting, fixed confusion re
having it possibly called from RCU mode (it won't be)]

Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
 "While small this set of changes is very significant with respect to
  containers in general and user namespaces in particular.  The user
  space interface is now complete.

  This set of changes adds support for unprivileged users to create user
  namespaces and as a user namespace root to create other namespaces.
  The tyranny of supporting suid root preventing unprivileged users from
  using cool new kernel features is broken.

  This set of changes completes the work on setns, adding support for
  the pid, user, mount namespaces.

  This set of changes includes a bunch of basic pid namespace
  cleanups/simplifications.  Of particular significance is the rework of
  the pid namespace cleanup so it no longer requires sending out
  tendrils into all kinds of unexpected cleanup paths for operation.  At
  least one case of broken error handling is fixed by this cleanup.

  The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been converted from regular files
  to magic symlinks which prevents incorrect caching by the VFS,
  ensuring the files always refer to the namespace the process is
  currently using and ensuring that the ptrace_mayaccess permission
  checks are always applied.

  The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been given stable inode numbers
  so it is now possible to see if different processes share the same
  namespaces.

  Through the David Miller's net tree are changes to relax many of the
  permission checks in the networking stack to allowing the user
  namespace root to usefully use the networking stack.  Similar changes
  for the mount namespace and the pid namespace are coming through my
  tree.

  Two small changes to add user namespace support were commited here adn
  in David Miller's -net tree so that I could complete the work on the
  /proc/<pid>/ns/ files in this tree.

  Work remains to make it safe to build user namespaces and 9p, afs,

252aa6f5be mm: redefine address_space.assoc_mapping
Overhaul struct address_space.assoc_mapping renaming it to
address_space.private_data and its type is redefined to void*.  By this
approach we consistently name the .private_* elements from struct
address_space as well as allow extended usage for address_space
association with other data structures through ->private_data.

Also, all users of old ->assoc_mapping element are converted to reflect
its new name and type change (->private_data).

bbec0270bd blkdev_max_block: make private to fs/buffer.c
We really don't want to look at the block size for the raw block device
accesses in fs/block-dev.c, because it may be changing from under us.
So get rid of the max_block logic entirely, since the caller should
already have done it anyway.

That leaves the only user of this function in fs/buffer.c, so move the
whole function there and make it static.

1e8b33328a blockdev: remove bd_block_size_semaphore again
This reverts the block-device direct access code to the previous
unlocked code, now that fs/buffer.c no longer needs external locking.

With this, fs/block_dev.c is back to the original version, apart from a
whitespace cleanup that I didn't want to revert.

0c55cfc416 vfs: Allow unprivileged manipulation of the mount namespace.
- Add a filesystem flag to mark filesystems that are safe to mount as
  an unprivileged user.

- Add a filesystem flag to mark filesystems that don't need MNT_NODEV
  when mounted by an unprivileged user.

- Relax the permission checks to allow unprivileged users that have
  CAP_SYS_ADMIN permissions in the user namespace referred to by the
  current mount namespace to be allowed to mount, unmount, and move
  filesystems.

Had not been used for more than a decade and half; it used
to be a part of (in-kernel) ->select() API and it has been pining

bbc1096ad8 Unexport some bits of linux/fs.h
There are some bits of linux/fs.h which are only used within the kernel and
shouldn't be in the UAPI.  Move these from uapi/linux/fs.h into linux/fs.h.
