    Merge branch 'work.mkdir' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs · 0ea97a2d
    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull vfs icache updates from Al Viro:
    
     - NFS mkdir/open_by_handle race fix
    
     - analogous solution for FUSE, replacing the one currently in mainline
    
     - new primitive to be used when discarding halfway set up inodes on
       failed object creation; gives sane warranties re icache lookups not
       returning such doomed by still not freed inodes. A bunch of
       filesystems switched to that animal.
    
     - Miklos' fix for last cycle regression in iget5_locked(); -stable will
       need a slightly different variant, unfortunately.
    
     - misc bits and pieces around things icache-related (in adfs and jfs).
    
    * 'work.mkdir' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
      jfs: don't bother with make_bad_inode() in ialloc()
      adfs: don't put inodes into icache
      new helper: inode_fake_hash()
      vfs: don't evict uninitialized inode
      jfs: switch to discard_new_inode()
      ext2: make sure that partially set up inodes won't be returned by ext2_iget()
      udf: switch to discard_new_inode()
      ufs: switch to discard_new_inode()
      btrfs: switch to discard_new_inode()
      new primitive: discard_new_inode()
      kill d_instantiate_no_diralias()
      nfs_instantiate(): prevent multiple aliases for directory inode
