      vfs: export lseek_execute() to modules · 46a1c2c7
      Jie Liu authored 
      

For those file systems(btrfs/ext4/ocfs2/tmpfs) that support
SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE functions, we end up handling the similar
matter in lseek_execute() to update the current file offset
to the desired offset if it is valid, ceph also does the
simliar things at ceph_llseek().

To reduce the duplications, this patch make lseek_execute()
public accessible so that we can call it directly from the
underlying file systems.

Thanks Dave Chinner for this suggestion.

[AV: call it vfs_setpos(), don't bring the removed 'inode' argument back]

v2->v1:
- Add kernel-doc comments for lseek_execute()
- Call lseek_execute() in ceph->llseek()

      Pull cpuset changes from Tejun Heo:
 "cpuset has always been rather odd about its configurations - a cgroup
  right after creation didn't allow any task executions before
  configuration, changing configuration in the parent modifies the
  descendants irreversibly and so on.  These behaviors are inherently
  nasty and almost hostile against sharing the hierarchy with other
  controllers making it very difficult to use in unified hierarchy.

  Li is currently in the process of updating the behaviors for
  __DEVEL__sane_behavior which is the bulk of changes in this pull
  request.  It isn't complete yet and the behaviors will change further
  but all changes are gated behind sane_behavior.  In the process, the
  rather hairy work-item punting which was used to work around the
  limitations of cgroup descendant iterator was simplified."

      Pull cgroup changes from Tejun Heo:
 "This pull request contains the following changes.

   - cgroup_subsys_state (css) reference counting has been converted to
     percpu-ref.  css is what each resource controller embeds into its
     own control structure and perform reference count against.  It may
     be used in hot paths of various subsystems and is similar to module
     refcnt in that aspect.  For example, block-cgroup's css refcnting
     was showing up a lot in Mikulaus's device-mapper scalability work
     and this should alleviate it.

   - cgroup subtree iterator has been updated so that RCU read lock can
     be released after grabbing reference.  This allows simplifying its
     users which requires blocking which used to build iteration list
     under RCU read lock and then traverse it outside.  This pull
     request contains simplification of cgroup core and device-cgroup.
     A separate pull request will update cpuset.

   - Fixes for various bugs including corner race conditions and RCU
     usage bugs.

   - A lot of cleanups and some prepartory work for the planned unified
     hierarchy support."
