Merge tag 'for-linus-4.8-ofs1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/hubcap/linux

Pull orangefs updates from Mike Mashall:
 "Orangefs cleanups and enablement of O_DIRECT in open.

  Cleanups:

   - remove some unused defines, and also some obfuscatory ones.

   - remove a redundant xattr handler.

   - Remove useless xattr prefix arguments.

   - Be more picky about uid and gid handling WRT namespaces.

     Our use of current_user_ns() instead of init_user_ns left open the
     possibility that users could spoof their uids or gids when the
     server was running in a different namespace in "default security"
     mode.

   - Allow open(2) to succeed with O_DIRECT"
