      fold _d_rehash() and __d_rehash() together · 15d3c589
      Al Viro authored
      
      
      The only place where we feed to __d_rehash() something other than
      d_hash(dentry->d_name.hash) is __d_move(), where we give it d_hash
      of another dentry.  Postpone rehashing until we'd switched the
      names and we are rid of that exception, along with the need to
      keep _d_rehash() and __d_rehash() separate.

      Revert "vfs: add lookup_hash() helper" · 20d00ee8
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This reverts commit 3c9fe8cd.
      
      As Miklos points out in commit c1b2cc1a
      
      , the "lookup_hash()" helper
      is now unused, and in fact, with the hash salting changes, since the
      hash of a dentry name now depends on the directory dentry it is in, the
      helper function isn't even really likely to be useful.
      
      So rather than keep it around in case somebody else might end up finding
      a use for it, let's just remove the helper and not trick people into
      thinking it might be a useful thing.
      
      For example, I had obviously completely missed how the helper didn't
      follow the normal dentry hashing patterns, and how the hash salting
      patch broke overlayfs.  Things would quietly build and look sane, but
      not work.

       "First of all, this fixes a regression in overlayfs introduced by the
        dentry hash salting.  I've moved the patch fixing this to the front of
        the queue, so if (god forbid) something needs to be bisected in
        overlayfs this regression won't interfere with that.
      
        The biggest part is preparation for selinux support, done by Vivek
        Goyal.  Essentially this makes all operations on underlying
        filesystems be done with credentials of mounter.  This makes
        everything nicely consistent.
      
        There are also fixes for a number of known and recently discovered
        non-standard behavior (thanks to Eryu Guan for testing and improving
        the test suites)"

      For PMD aligned (8M) hugepages, we currently allocate
      all four page table levels which is wasteful. We now
      allocate till PMD level only which saves memory usage
      from page tables.
      
      Also, when freeing page table for 8M hugepage backed region,
      make sure we don't try to access non-existent PTE level.
