Return appropriate error from udf_find_entry() instead of just NULL.
That way we can distinguish the fact that some error happened when
looking up filename (and return error to userspace) from the fact that
we just didn't find the filename. Also update callers of
udf_find_entry() accordingly.

Zero length file name isn't really valid. So check the length of the
final file name generated by udf_translate_to_linux() and return -EINVAL
instead of zero length file name. Update caller of udf_get_filename() to
not check for 0 return value.

We can remove parameter checks:
udf_build_ustr_exact() is only called by udf_get_filename()
which now assures dest is not NULL
udf_find_entry() and udf_readdir() call udf_get_filename()
after checking sname
udf_symlink_filler() calls udf_pc_to_char() with sname=kmap(page).
udf_find_entry() and udf_readdir() call udf_get_filename with UDF_NAME_LEN
udf_pc_to_char() with PAGE_SIZE

Return -ENOMEM when allocation fails in udf_get_filename(). Update
udf_pc_to_char(), udf_readdir(), and udf_find_entry() to handle the
error appropriately. This allows us to pass appropriate error to
userspace instead of corrupting symlink contents by omitting some path
elements.

Otherwise we are risking a hard error where nonlazy restart would be the right
thing to do; it's a very narrow race with mount --move and most of the time it
ends up being completely harmless, but it's possible to construct a case when
we'll get a bogus hard error instead of falling back to non-lazy walk...
For one thing, when crossing _into_ overmount of parent we need to check for
mount_lock bumps when we get NULL from __lookup_mnt() as well.
For another, and less exotically, we need to make sure that the data fetched
in follow_up_rcu() had been consistent. ->mnt_mountpoint is pinned for as
long as it is a mountpoint, but we need to check mount_lock after fetching
to verify that.

touch_atime is not RCU-safe, and so cannot be called on an RCU walk.
However, in situations where RCU-walk makes a difference, the symlink
will likely to accessed much more often than it is useful to update
the atime.
So split out the test of "Does the atime actually need to be updated"
into atime_needs_update(), and have get_link() unlazy if it finds that
it will need to do that update.

We are almost done - primitives for leaving RCU mode are aware of nd->stack
now, a new primitive for going to non-RCU mode when we have a symlink on hands
added.
The thing we are heavily relying upon is that *any* unlazy failure will be
shortly followed by terminate_walk(), with no access to nameidata in between.
So it's enough to leave the things in a state terminate_walk() would cope with.

The xfstests test suite assumes that an attempt to collapse range on
the range (0, 1) will return EOPNOTSUPP if the file system does not
support collapse range. Commit 280227a75b56: "ext4: move check under
lock scope to close a race" broke this, and this caused xfstests to

root->ino_ida is used for kernfs inode number allocations. Since IDA has
a layered structure, different IDs can reside on the same layer, which
is currently accounted to some memory cgroup. The problem is that each
kmem cache of a memory cgroup has its own directory on sysfs (under
/sys/fs/kernel/<cache-name>/cgroup). If the inode number of such a
directory or any file in it gets allocated from a layer accounted to the
cgroup which the cache is created for, the cgroup will get pinned for
good, because one has to free all kmem allocations accounted to a cgroup
in order to release it and destroy all its kmem caches. That said we
must not account layers of ino_ida to any memory cgroup.
Since per net init operations may create new sysfs entries directly
(e.g. lo device) or indirectly (nf_conntrack creates a new kmem cache
per each namespace, which, in turn, creates new sysfs entries), an easy
way to reproduce this issue is by creating network namespace(s) from
inside a kmem-active memory cgroup.

The journal revoke block recovery code does not check r_count for
sanity, which means that an evil value of r_count could result in
the kernel reading off the end of the revoke table and into whatever
garbage lies beyond. This could crash the kernel, so fix that.
However, in testing this fix, I discovered that the code to write
out the revoke tables also was not correctly checking to see if the
block was full -- the current offset check is fine so long as the
revoke table space size is a multiple of the record size, but this
is not true when either journal_csum_v[23] are set.

Currently when journal restart fails, we'll have the h_transaction of
the handle set to NULL to indicate that the handle has been effectively
aborted. We handle this situation quietly in the jbd2_journal_stop() and just
free the handle and exit because everything else has been done before we
attempted (and failed) to restart the journal.
Unfortunately there are a number of problems with that approach
introduced with commit
41a5b913197c "jbd2: invalidate handle if jbd2_journal_restart()
fails"
First of all in ext4 jbd2_journal_stop() will be called through
__ext4_journal_stop() where we would try to get a hold of the superblock
by dereferencing h_transaction which in this case would lead to NULL
pointer dereference and crash.
In addition we're going to free the handle regardless of the refcount
which is bad as well, because others up the call chain will still
reference the handle so we might potentially reference already freed
memory.
Moreover it's expected that we'll get aborted handle as well as detached
handle in some of the journalling function as the error propagates up
the stack, so it's unnecessary to call WARN_ON every time we get
detached handle.
And finally we might leak some memory by forgetting to free reserved
handle in jbd2_journal_stop() in the case where handle was detached from
the transaction (h_transaction is NULL).
Fix the NULL pointer dereference in __ext4_journal_stop() by just
calling jbd2_journal_stop() quietly as suggested by Jan Kara. Also fix
the potential memory leak in jbd2_journal_stop() and use proper
handle refcounting before we attempt to free it to avoid use-after-free
issues.
And finally remove all WARN_ON(!transaction) from the code so that we do
not get random traces when something goes wrong because when journal
restart fails we will get to some of those functions.

When removing an opaque directory we can't just call rmdir() to check for
emptiness, because the directory will need to be replaced with a whiteout.
The replacement is done with RENAME_EXCHANGE, which doesn't check
emptiness.
Solution is just to check emptiness by reading the directory. In the
future we could add a new rename flag to check for emptiness even for
RENAME_EXCHANGE to optimize this case.

Fresh mounts of proc and sysfs are a very special case that works very
much like a bind mount. Unfortunately the current structure can not
preserve the MNT_LOCK... mount flags. Therefore refactor the logic
into a form that can be modified to preserve those lock bits.
Add a new filesystem flag FS_USERNS_VISIBLE that requires some mount
of the filesystem be fully visible in the current mount namespace,
before the filesystem may be mounted.
Move the logic for calling fs_fully_visible from proc and sysfs into
fs/namespace.c where it has greater access to mount namespace state.

Jean says:
"Running locktests with a large number of iterations resulted in a
client crash. The test run took a while and hasn't finished after close
to 2 hours. The crash happened right after I gave up and killed the test
(after 107m) with Ctrl+C."
The crash happened because a NULL inode pointer got passed into
locks_get_lock_context. The call chain indicates that file_inode(filp)
returned NULL, which means that f_inode was NULL. Since that's zeroed
out in __fput, that suggests that this filp pointer outlived the last
reference.
Looking at the code, that seems possible. We copy the struct file_lock
that's passed in, but if the task is signalled at an inopportune time we
can end up trying to use that file_lock in rpciod context after the process
that requested it has already returned (and possibly put its filp
reference).
Fix this by taking an extra reference to the filp when we allocate the
lock info, and put it in nfs4_lock_release.

When running the Connectathon basic tests against a Solaris NFS
server over NFSv4.0, test5 reports that stat(2) returns a file size
of zero instead of 1MB.
On success, nfs_commit_inode() can return a positive result; see
other call sites such as nfs_file_fsync_commit() and
nfs_commit_unstable_pages().
The call site recently added in nfs_wb_all() does not prevent that
positive return value from leaking to its callers. If it leaks
through nfs_sync_inode() back to nfs_getattr(), that causes stat(2)
to return a positive return value to user space while also not
filling in the passed-in struct stat.
Additional clean up: the new logic in nfs_wb_all() is rewritten in
bfields-normal form.

Four minor merge conflicts:
1) qca_spi.c renamed the local variable used for the SPI device
from spi_device to spi, meanwhile the spi_set_drvdata() call
got moved further up in the probe function.
2) Two changes were both adding new members to codel params
structure, and thus we had overlapping changes to the
initializer function.
3) 'net' was making a fix to sk_release_kernel() which is
completely removed in 'net-next'.
4) In net_namespace.c, the rtnl_net_fill() call for GET operations
had the command value fixed, meanwhile 'net-next' adjusted the
argument signature a bit.
This also matches example merge resolutions posted by Stephen
Rothwell over the past two days.

architectures
On architectures where the stack grows upwards (CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP=y,
currently parisc and metag only) stack randomization sometimes leads to crashes
when the stack ulimit is set to lower values than STACK_RND_MASK (which is 8 MB
by default if not defined in arch-specific headers).
The problem is, that when the stack vm_area_struct is set up in fs/exec.c, the
additional space needed for the stack randomization (as defined by the value of
STACK_RND_MASK) was not taken into account yet and as such, when the stack
randomization code added a random offset to the stack start, the stack
effectively got smaller than what the user defined via rlimit_max(RLIMIT_STACK)
which then sometimes leads to out-of-stack situations and crashes.
This patch fixes it by adding the maximum possible amount of memory (based on
STACK_RND_MASK) which theoretically could be added by the stack randomization
code to the initial stack size. That way, the user-defined stack size is always
guaranteed to be at minimum what is defined via rlimit_max(RLIMIT_STACK).
This bug is currently not visible on the metag architecture, because on metag
STACK_RND_MASK is defined to 0 which effectively disables stack randomization.
The changes to fs/exec.c are inside an "#ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP"
section, so it does not affect other platformws beside those where the
stack grows upwards (parisc and metag).
