Various filesystem drivers have grown a get_dentry() function that's a duplicate of lookup_one_len, except that it doesn't take a maximum length argument and doesn't check for \0 or / in the passed in filename. Switch all these places to use lookup_one_len.

There is a race in the kernel cpuset code, between the code to handle notify_on_release, and the code to remove a cpuset. The notify_on_release code can end up trying to access a cpuset that has been removed. In the most common case, this causes a NULL pointer dereference from the routine cpuset_path. However all manner of bad things are possible, in theory at least. The existing code decrements the cpuset use count, and if the count goes to zero, processes the notify_on_release request, if appropriate. However, once the count goes to zero, unless we are holding the global cpuset_sem semaphore, there is nothing to stop another task from immediately removing the cpuset entirely, and recycling its memory. The obvious fix would be to always hold the cpuset_sem semaphore while decrementing the use count and dealing with notify_on_release. However we don't want to force a global semaphore into the mainline task exit path, as that might create a scaling problem. The actual fix is almost as easy - since this is only an issue for cpusets using notify_on_release, which the top level big cpusets don't normally need to use, only take the cpuset_sem for cpusets using notify_on_release. This code has been run for hours without a hiccup, while running a cpuset create/destroy stress test that could crash the existing kernel in seconds. This patch applies to the current -linus git kernel.

gcc-4 warns with include/linux/cpuset.h:21: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type cpuset_cpus_allowed is declared with const extern const cpumask_t cpuset_cpus_allowed(const struct task_struct *p); First const should be __attribute__((const)), but the gcc manual explains that: "Note that a function that has pointer arguments and examines the data pointed to must not be declared const. Likewise, a function that calls a non-const function usually must not be const. It does not make sense for a const function to return void." The following patch remove const from the function declaration.

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!
