      Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs · 83373f70
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull vfs fixes from Al Viro:
       "double iput() on failure exit in lustre, racy removal of spliced
        dentries from ->s_anon in __d_materialise_dentry() plus a bunch of
        assorted RCU pathwalk fixes"
      
      The RCU pathwalk fixes end up fixing a couple of cases where we
      incorrectly dropped out of RCU walking, due to incorrect initialization
      and testing of the sequence locks in some corner cases.  Since dropping
      out of RCU walk mode forces the slow locked accesses, those corner cases
      slowed down quite dramatically.
      
      * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
        be careful with nd->inode in path_init() and follow_dotdot_rcu()
        don't bugger nd->seq on set_root_rcu() from follow_dotdot_rcu()
        fix bogus read_seqretry() checks introduced in b37199e6
        move the call of __d_drop(anon) into __d_materialise_unique(dentry, anon)
        [fix] lustre: d_make_root() does iput() on dentry allocation failure
