dfe4d3d6a6 ocfs2: Fix the update of name_offset when removing xattrs
When replacing a xattr's value, in some case we wipe its name/value
first and then re-add it. The wipe is done by
ocfs2_xa_block_wipe_namevalue() when the xattr is in the inode or
block. We currently adjust name_offset for all the entries which have
(offset < name_offset). This does not adjust the entrie we're replacing.
Since we are replacing the entry, we don't adjust the total entry count.
When we calculate a new namevalue location, we trust the entries
now-wrong offset in ocfs2_xa_get_free_start().  The solution is to
also adjust the name_offset for the replaced entry, allowing
ocfs2_xa_get_free_start() to calculate the new namevalue location
correctly.

The following script can trigger a kernel panic easily.

echo 'y'|mkfs.ocfs2 --fs-features=local,xattr -b 4K $DEVICE
mount -t ocfs2 $DEVICE $MNT_DIR
FILE=$MNT_DIR/$RANDOM
for((i=0;i<76;i++))
do
string_76="a$string_76"
done
string_78="aa$string_76"
string_82="aaaa$string_78"

b22b63ebaf ocfs2: Always try for maximum bits with new local alloc windows
What we were doing before was to ask for the current window size as the
maximum allocation. This had the effect of limiting the amount of allocation
we could get for the local alloc during times when the window size was
shrunk due to fragmentation. In some cases, that could actually *increase*
fragmentation by artificially limiting the number of bits we can accept. So
while we still want to ask for a minimum number of bits equal to window
size, there is no reason why we should limit the number of bits the local
alloc should accept. Hence always allow the maximum number of local alloc
bits.

fcefd25ac8 ocfs2: set i_mode on disk during acl operations
ocfs2_set_acl() and ocfs2_init_acl() were setting i_mode on the in-memory
inode, but never setting it on the disk copy. Thus, acls were some times not
getting propagated between nodes. This patch fixes the issue by adding a
helper function ocfs2_acl_set_mode() which does this the right way.
ocfs2_set_acl() and ocfs2_init_acl() are then updated to call
ocfs2_acl_set_mode().

78c37eb0d5 ocfs2: Change bg_chain check for ocfs2_validate_gd_parent.
In ocfs2_validate_gd_parent, we check bg_chain against the
cl_next_free_rec of the dinode. Actually in resize, we have
the chance of bg_chain == cl_next_free_rec. So add some
additional condition check for it.

I also rename paramter "clean_error" to "resize", since the
old one is not clearly enough to indicate that we should only
meet with this case in resize.

3836a03d97 anon_inodes: mark the anon inode private
Inotify was switched to use anon_inode instead of its own private filesystem
which only had one inode in commit c44dcc56d2 "switch inotify_user to
anon_inode"

The problem with this is that now the inotify inode is not a distinct inode
which can be managed by LSMs.  userspace tools which use inotify were allowed
to use the inotify inode but may not have had permission to do read/write type
operations on the anon_inode.  After looking at the anon_inode and its users
it looks like the best solution is to just mark the anon_inode as S_PRIVATE
so the security system will ignore it.

b3a0fd4d87 fs/ufs: recognize Solaris-specific file system state
Recent releases of Solaris set the fs_clean state of an unmounted UFS file
system as FSLOG ("logging fs").  However, the Linux kernel currently does
not recognize the value which represents this state.  Thus, attempting to
mount such a file system rw produces the message

kernel: ufs_read_super: can't grok fs_clean 0xfffffffd

and the file system is mounted read-only.  This patch makes the kernel
recognize that value.

019b4d123a fs: buffer_head: remove kmem_cache constructor to reduce memory usage under slub
When using slub, having a kmem_cache constructor forces slub to add a free
pointer to the size of the cached object, which can have a significant
impact to the number of small objects that can fit into a slab.

As buffer_head is relatively small and we can have large numbers of them,
removing the constructor is a definite win.

On x86_64 removing the constructor gives me 39 objects/slab, 3 more than
without the patch.  And on x86_32 73 objects/slab, which is 9 more.

As alloc_buffer_head() already initializes each new object there is very
little difference in actual code run.

2e95e3f668 GFS2: Allow the number of committed revokes to temporarily be negative
GFS2 tracks the number of revokes and unrevokes that are part of committed
transactions via sd_log_commited_revoke. It is possible for one process to add
revokes during its transaction, while another process unrevokes them during its
transaction. If the second process finishes its transaction first,
sd_log_commited_revoke will be decremented by the number of unrevokes that the
second process did, without first being incremented by the number of revokes
the first process did. This is fine, since all started transactions must be
completed before the journal can be flushed.  However, sd_log_commited_revoke
is an unsigned integer, and log_refund() causes an assertion failure if it
would go negative at the end of a transaction.  This patch makes
sd_log_commited_revoke a signed integer and allows it to go negative.
__gfs2_log_flush() still checks that it mataches the actual number of revokes.

7cb32942d9 sysfs: Implement sysfs_rename_link
Because of rename ordering problems we occassionally give false
warnings about invalid sysfs operations.  So using sysfs_rename
create a sysfs_rename_link function that doesn't need strange
workarounds.

19c38b632d sysfs: Pack sysfs_dirent more tightly.
Placing the 16bit s_mode between a pointer and a long doesn't pack well
especailly on 64bit where we wast 48 bits.  So move s_mode and
declare it as a unsigned short.  This is the sysfs backing store
after all we don't need fields extra large just in case someday
we want userspace to be able to use a larger value.

f8d4f618fe sysfs: Serialize updates to the vfs inode
The vfs depends upon filesystem methods to update the
vfs inode.   Sysfs adds to the normal number of places
where the vfs inode is updated by also updatng the
vfs inode in sysfs_refresh_inode.

Typically the inode mutex is used to serialize updates
to the vfs inode, but grabbing the inode mutex in
sysfs_permission and sysfs_getattr causes deadlocks,
because sometimes the vfs calls those operations with
the inode mutex held.  Therefore sysfs  can not use the
inode mutex to serial updates to the vfs inode.

The sysfs_mutex is acquired in all of the routines
where sysfs updates the vfs inode, and with a small
change we can consistently protext sysfs vfs inode
updates with the sysfs_mutex. To protect the sysfs
vfs inode updates with the sysfs_mutex simply requires
extending the scope of sysfs_mutex in sysfs_setattr
over inode_setattr, and over inode_change_ok (so we
have an unchanging inode when we perform the check).

6992f53349 sysfs: Use one lockdep class per sysfs attribute.
Acknowledge that the logical sysfs rwsem has one instance per
sysfs attribute with different locking depencencies for different
attributes.

There is a sysfs idiom where writing to one sysfs file causes the
addition or removal of other sysfs files.   Lumping all of the
sysfs attributes together in one lock class causes lockdep to
generate lots of false positives.

This introduces the requirement that non-static sysfs attributes
need to be initialized with sysfs_attr_init or sysfs_bin_attr_init.
Strictly speaking this requirement only exists when lockdep is
enabled, and when lockdep is enabled we get a bit fat warning
if this requirement is not met.

a2db684287 sysfs: Only take active references on attributes.
If we exclude directories and symlinks from the set of sysfs
dirents where we need active references we are left with
sysfs attributes (binary or not).

- Tweak sysfs_deactivate to only do something on attributes
- Move lockdep initialization into sysfs_file_add_mode to
  limit it to just attributes.

e72ceb8cca sysfs: Remove sysfs_get/put_active_two
It turns out that holding an active reference on a directory is
pointless.  The purpose of the active references are to allows us to
block when removing sysfs entries that have custom methods so we don't
remove modules while running modular code and to keep those custom
methods from accessing data structures after the files have been
removed.  Further sysfs_remove_dir remove all elements in the
directory before removing the directory itself, so there is no chance
we will remove a directory with active children.

52cf25d0ab Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_type
Constify struct sysfs_ops.

This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

Benefits of this constification:

 * prevents modification of data that is shared
   (referenced) by many other structure instances
   at runtime

 * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
   modification attempts on archs that enforce
   read-only kernel data at runtime

 * potentially better optimized code as the compiler
   can assume that the const data cannot be changed

 * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
   and therefore exclude them from false sharing
