      Restore direct_io / truncate locking API · 37fbf4bf
      Anton Altaparmakov authored
      With kernel 3.1, Christoph removed i_alloc_sem and replaced it with
      calls (namely inode_dio_wait() and inode_dio_done()) which are
      EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() thus they cannot be used by non-GPL file systems and
      further inode_dio_wait() was pushed from notify_change() into the file
      system ->setattr() method but no non-GPL file system can make this call.
      
      That means non-GPL file systems cannot exist any more unless they do not
      use any VFS functionality related to reading/writing as far as I can
      tell or at least as long as they want to implement direct i/o.
      
      Both Linus and Al (and others) have said on LKML that this breakage of
      the VFS API should not have happened and that the change was simply
      missed as it was not documented in the change logs of the patches that
      did those changes.
      
      This patch changes the two function exports in question to be
      EXPORT_SYMBOL() thus restoring the VFS API as it used to be - accessible
      for all modules.
      
      Christoph, who introduced the two functions and exported them GPL-only
      is CC-ed on this patch to give him the opportunity to object to the
      symbols being changed in this manner if he did indeed intend them to be
      GPL-only and does not want them to become available to all modules.

      Linus Torvalds authored
      A fix from Jesper Juhl removes an assignment in an ASSERT when a compare
      is intended.  Two fixes from Mitsuo Hayasaka address off-by-ones in XFS
      quota enforcement.
      
      * 'for-linus' of git://oss.sgi.com/xfs/xfs:
        xfs: make inode quota check more general
        xfs: change available ranges of softlimit and hardlimit in quota check
        XFS: xfs_trans_add_item() - don't assign in ASSERT() when compare is intended

       'Here are a few more powerpc bits for you.  A stupid regression I
        introduced with my previous commit to "fix" program check exceptions
        (brown paper bag for me), fix the cpuidle default, a bug fix for
        something that isn't strictly speaking a regression but some upstream
        changes causes it to show in lockdep now while it didn't before, and
        finally a trivial one for rusty to make his life easier later on
        removing the old cpumask cruft. '
