      Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
       "Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing ->d_name/->d_parent
        locking violations, etc.
      
        The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
        "has ->d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
        to inode.  Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.
      
        Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
        several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.
      
        PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull ext4 updates from Theodore Ts'o:
       "The one new feature added in this patch series is the ability to use
        the "punch hole" functionality for inodes that are not using extent
        maps.
      
        In the bug fix category, we fixed some races in the AIO and fstrim
        code, and some potential NULL pointer dereferences and memory leaks in
        error handling code paths.
      
        In the optimization category, we fixed a performance regression in the
        jbd2 layer introduced by commit d9b01934 ("jbd: fix fsync() tid
        wraparound bug", introduced in v3.0) which shows up in the AIM7
        benchmark.  We also further optimized jbd2 by minimize the amount of
        time that transaction handles are held active.
      
        This patch series also features some additional enhancement of the
        extent status tree, which is now used to cache extent information in a
        more efficient/compact form than what we use on-disk."
      
      * tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4: (65 commits)
