Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull vfs fixes from Al Viro:

 - backport-friendly part of lock_parent() race fix

 - a fix for an assumption in the heurisic used by path_connected() that
   is not true on NFS

 - livelock fixes for d_alloc_parallel()

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  fs: Teach path_connected to handle nfs filesystems with multiple roots.
  fs: dcache: Use READ_ONCE when accessing i_dir_seq
  fs: dcache: Avoid livelock between d_alloc_parallel and __d_add
  lock_parent() needs to recheck if dentry got __dentry_kill'ed under it
