[PATCH] move executable checking into ->permission()
For execute permission on a regular files we need to check if file has
any execute bits at all, regardless of capabilites.
This check is normally performed by generic_permission() but was also
added to the case when the filesystem defines its own ->permission()
method. In the latter case the filesystem should be responsible for
performing this check.
Move the check from inode_permission() inside filesystems which are
not calling generic_permission().
Create a helper function execute_ok() that returns true if the inode
is a directory or if any execute bits are present in i_mode.
Also fix up the following code:
- coda control file is never executable
- sysctl files are never executable
- hfs_permission seems broken on MAY_EXEC, remove
- hfsplus_permission is eqivalent to generic_permission(), remove

[RFC PATCH] touch_mnt_namespace when the mount flags change
Daemons that need to be launched while the rootfs is read-only can now
poll /proc/mounts to be notified when their O_RDWR requests may no

Reiserfs currently doesn't set a llseek method for regular files, which
means it will fall back to default_llseek. This means no one can seek
beyond 2 Gigabytes on reiserfs, and that there's not protection vs
the i_size updates from writers.
This adds LOOKUP_RENAME_TARGET intent for lookup of rename destination.
LOOKUP_RENAME_TARGET is going to be used like LOOKUP_CREATE. But since
the destination of rename() can be existing directory entry, so it has a
difference. Although that difference doesn't matter in my usage, this
tells it to user of this intent.
This adds __d_instantiate() for users which is already taking
dcache_lock, and replace with it.
The part of d_add_ci() isn't equivalent. But it should be needed
fsnotify_d_instantiate() actually, because the path is to add the
inode to negative dentry. fsnotify_d_instantiate() should be called
after change from negative to positive.

[PATCH] Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code.
Some file systems with their own internal locking have problems with the
way that nfsd calls the ->lookup() method from within a filldir function
called from their ->readdir() method. The recursion back into the file
system code can cause deadlock.
XFS has a fairly hackish solution to this which involves doing the
readdir() into a locally-allocated buffer, then going back through it
calling the filldir function afterwards. It's not ideal, but it works.
It's particularly suboptimal because XFS does this for local file
systems too, where it's completely unnecessary.
Copy this hack into the NFS code where it can be used only for NFS
export. In response to feedback, use it unconditionally rather than only
for the affected file systems.

The calling conventions of d_alloc_anon are rather unfortunate for all

Add d_obtain_alias as a new exported helper that drops the inode
reference in the failure case, too and allows to pass-through NULL
pointers and inodes to allow for tail-calls in the export operations.
Incidentally this helper already existed as a private function in
libfs.c as exportfs_d_alloc so kill that one and switch the callers
