Merge branch 'work.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:
"Assorted cleanups and fixes.

Probably the most interesting part long-term is ->d_init() - that will
have a bunch of followups in (at least) ceph and lustre, but we'll
need to sort the barrier-related rules before it can get used for
really non-trivial stuff.

Another fun thing is the merge of ->d_iput() callers (dentry_iput()
and dentry_unlink_inode()) and a bunch of ->d_compare() ones (all
except the one in __d_lookup_lru())"

* 'work.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (26 commits)
fs/dcache.c: avoid soft-lockup in dput()
vfs: new d_init method
vfs: Update lookup_dcache() comment
bdev: get rid of ->bd_inodes
Remove last traces of ->sync_page
new helper: d_same_name()
dentry_cmp(): use lockless_dereference() instead of smp_read_barrier_depends()
vfs: clean up documentation
vfs: document ->d_real()
vfs: merge .d_select_inode() into .d_real()
unify dentry_iput() and dentry_unlink_inode()
binfmt_misc: ->s_root is not going anywhere
drop redundant ->owner initializations
ufs: get rid of redundant checks
orangefs: constify inode_operations
missed comment updates from ->direct_IO() prototype change
file_inode(f)->i_mapping is f->f_mapping
trim fsnotify hooks a bit
9p: new helper - v9fs_parent_fid()
debugfs: ->d_parent is never NULL or negative

it's not needed for file_operations of inodes located on fs defined
in the hosting module and for file_operations that go into procfs.
