      Pull tracing and eventfs fixes from Steven Rostedt:
      
       - Fix the return code for ring_buffer_poll_wait()
      
         It was returing a -EINVAL instead of EPOLLERR.
      
       - Zero out the tracefs_inode so that all fields are initialized.
      
         The ti->private could have had stale data, but instead of just
         initializing it to NULL, clear out the entire structure when it is
         allocated.
      
       - Fix a crash in timerlat
      
         The hrtimer was initialized at read and not open, but is canceled at
         close. If the file was opened and never read the close will pass a
         NULL pointer to hrtime_cancel().
      
       - Rewrite of eventfs.
      
         Linus wrote a patch series to remove the dentry references in the
         eventfs_inode and to use ref counting and more of proper VFS
         interfaces to make it work.
      
       - Add warning to put_ei() if ei is not set to free. That means
         something is about to free it when it shouldn't.
      
       - Restructure the eventfs_inode to make it more compact, and remove the
         unused llist field.
      
       - Remove the fsnotify*() funtions for when the inodes were being
         created in the lookup code. It doesn't make sense to notify about
         creation just because something is being looked up.
      
       - The inode hard link count was not accurate.
      
         It was being updated when a file was looked up. The inodes of
         directories were updating their parent inode hard link count every
         time the inode was created. That means if memory reclaim cleaned a
         stale directory inode and the inode was lookup up again, it would
         increment the parent inode again as well. Al Viro said to just have
         all eventfs directories have a hard link count of 1. That tells user
         space not to trust it.
