All callers of do_follow_link() do mntget() right before it and
dput()+mntput() right after. These calls are moved inside do_follow_link()
now.
Obviously equivalent transformation.

OK, here comes a patch series that hopefully should close all
too-early-mntput() races in fs/namei.c. Entire area is convoluted as hell, so
I'm splitting that series into _very_ small chunks.
Patches alread in the tree close only (very wide) races in following symlinks
(see "busy inodes after umount" thread some time ago). Unfortunately, quite a
few narrower races of the same nature were not closed. Hopefully this should
take care of all of them.

currently it opencodes it, but that's in the way of chaning the
lookup_hash interface.
I'd prefer to disallow modular af_unix over exporting lookup_create,
but I'll leave that to you.

This patch makes some needlessly global identifiers static.

Main change is in path_lookup: added a goto to do audit_inode
instead of return statement, when emul_lookup_dentry for root
is successful.The existing code does audit_inode only when
lookup is done in normal root or cwd.
Other changes: Some lookup routines are returning zero on success,
and some are returning zero on failure. I documented the related
function signatures in this code path, so that one can glance over
abstract functions without understanding the entire code.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
