Pull dcache and mountpoint updates from Al Viro:
"Saner handling of refcounts to mountpoints.
Transfer the counting reference from struct mount ->mnt_mountpoint
over to struct mountpoint ->m_dentry. That allows us to get rid of the
convoluted games with ordering of mount shutdowns.
The cost is in teaching shrink_dcache_{parent,for_umount} to cope with
mixed-filesystem shrink lists, which we'll also need for the Slab
Movable Objects patchset"
* 'work.dcache2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
switch the remnants of releasing the mountpoint away from fs_pin
get rid of detach_mnt()
make struct mountpoint bear the dentry reference to mountpoint, not struct mount
Teach shrink_dcache_parent() to cope with mixed-filesystem shrink lists
fs/namespace.c: shift put_mountpoint() to callers of unhash_mnt()
__detach_mounts(): lookup_mountpoint() can't return ERR_PTR() anymore
nfs: dget_parent() never returns NULL
ceph: don't open-code the check for dead lockref
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
