A check for file_count is always a bad idea. Linux has the ->release
method to deal with cleanups on last close and ->flush is only for the
very rare case where we want to perform an operation on every drop of a
reference to a file struct.

This patch gets rid of vop_close and surrounding code in favour of simply
doing the page flushing from ->release.

They can use generic_file_splice_read() instead. Since sys_sendfile() now
prefers that, there should be no change in behaviour.

gcc-4.1 and more recent aggressively inline static functions which
increases XFS stack usage by ~15% in critical paths. Prevent this from
occurring by adding noinline to the STATIC definition.

Also uninline some functions that are too large to be inlined and were
causing problems with CONFIG_FORCED_INLINING=y.

Finally, clean up all the different users of inline, __inline and
__inline__ and put them under one STATIC_INLINE macro. For debug kernels
the STATIC_INLINE macro uninlines those functions.

separate out the 'internal pipe object' abstraction, and make it
usable to splice. This cleans up and fixes several aspects of the
internal splice APIs and the pipe code:

 - pipes: the allocation and freeing of pipe_inode_info is now more symmetric
   and more streamlined with existing kernel practices.

 - splice: small micro-optimization: less pointer dereferencing in splice
   methods

This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
const.  Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups

The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
cache clean)

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
