caused a regression in xfs_inumbers, which in turn broke
xfsdump, causing incomplete dumps.

The loop in xfs_inumbers() needs to fill the user-supplied
buffers, and iterates via xfs_btree_increment, reading new
ags as needed.

But the first time through the loop, if xfs_btree_increment()
succeeds, we continue, which triggers the ++agno at the bottom
of the loop, and we skip to soon to the next ag - without
the proper setup under next_ag to read the next ag.

Fix this by removing the agno increment from the loop conditional,
and only increment agno if we have actually hit the code under
the next_ag: target.

The following pairs of system calls dealing with extended attributes only
differ in their behavior on whether the symbolic link is followed (when
the named file is a symbolic link):

- setxattr() and lsetxattr()
- getxattr() and lgetxattr()
- listxattr() and llistxattr()
- removexattr() and lremovexattr()

Despite this, the implementations all had duplicated code, so this commit
redirects each of the above pairs of system calls to a corresponding
function to which different lookup flags (LOOKUP_FOLLOW or 0) are passed.

For me this reduced the stripped size of xattr.o from 8824 to 8248 bytes.

Pull parisc fix from Helge Deller:
 "This patch intentionally breaks the ABI on PARISC Linux!

  It assigns new numbers to SIGSTKFLT, SIGXCPU, SIGXFSZ and SIGSYS so
  that those are below 32 and thus leaves us with 32 RT signals like
  other Linux architectures (SIGRTMIN now becomes 32 instead of 37).

  Even if it breaks the ABI, it doesn't seem to have any visible impact
  on existing userspace applications.  I was able to mix new kernel
  and/or glibc without impacting normal bootup.  So, even if it breaks
  the ABI, the benefits (e.g.  being able to use systemd on PARISC
  Linux) outperforms the minimal (if any) impact it gives.

  The patch has been discussed on the parisc kernel mailing list and the
  coresponding glibc patch will be committed by the parisc glibc
  maintainer after this patch went into 3.18.

  Some more background information about this patch is in the commit
  message"

[ Side note: the "no regressions" rule has always been about *users*,
  not ABI's.  You can change ABI's all you like, until somebody actually
  notices.  At that point it gets reverted regardless of how good your
  reasons and excuses.

  And admittedly, with parisc, the distinct lack of many users makes
  that fairly unlikely anyway :^p    - Linus ]

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "This set has a few minor updates, but the big change is the redesign
  of the trampoline logic.

  The trampoline logic of 3.17 required a descriptor for every function
  that is registered to be traced and uses a trampoline.  Currently,
  only the function graph tracer uses a trampoline, but if you were to
  trace all 32,000 (give or take a few thousand) functions with the
  function graph tracer, it would create 32,000 descriptors to let us
  know that there's a trampoline associated with it.  This takes up a
  bit of memory when there's a better way to do it.

  The redesign now reuses the ftrace_ops' (what registers the function
  graph tracer) hash tables.  The hash tables tell ftrace what the
  tracer wants to trace or doesn't want to trace.  There's two of them:
  one that tells us what to trace, the other tells us what not to trace.
  If the first one is empty, it means all functions should be traced,
  otherwise only the ones that are listed should be.  The second hash
  table tells us what not to trace, and if it is empty, all functions
  may be traced, and if there's any listed, then those should not be
  traced even if they exist in the first hash table.

  It took a bit of massaging, but now these hashes can be used to keep
  track of what has a trampoline and what does not, and allows the
  ftrace accounting to work.  Now we can trace all functions when using
  the function graph trampoline, and avoid needing to create any special
  descriptors to hold all the functions that are being traced"

This patch reduces the value of SIGRTMIN on PARISC from 37 to 32, thus
increasing the number of available RT signals and bring it in sync with other
Linux architectures.

Historically we wanted to natively support HP-UX 32bit binaries with the
PA-RISC Linux port.  Because of that we carried the various available signals
from HP-UX (e.g. SIGEMT and SIGLOST) and folded them in between the native
Linux signals.  Although this was the right decision at that time, this
required us to increase SIGRTMIN to at least 37 which left us with 27 (64-37)
RT signals.

Those 27 RT signals haven't been a problem in the past, but with the upcoming
importance of systemd we now got the problem that systemd alloctes (hardcoded)
signals up to SIGRTMIN+29 which is beyond our NSIG of 64. Because of that we
have not been able to use systemd on the PARISC Linux port yet.

Of course we could ask the systemd developers to not use those hardcoded
values, but this change is very unlikely, esp. with PA-RISC being a niche
architecture.

The other possibility would be to increase NSIG to e.g. 128, but this would
mean to duplicate most of the existing Linux signal handling code into the
parisc specific Linux kernel tree which would most likely introduce lots of new
bugs beside the code duplication.

The third option is to drop some HP-UX signals and shuffle some other signals
around to bring SIGRTMIN to 32.  This is of course an ABI change, but testing
has shown that existing Linux installations are not visibly affected by this
change - most likely because we move those signals around which are rarely used
and move them to slots which haven't been used in Linux yet. In an existing
installation I was able to exchange either the Linux kernel or glibc (or both)
without affecting the boot process and installed applications.

Dropping the HP-UX signals isn't an issue either, since support for HP-UX was
basically dropped a few months back with Kernel 3.14 in commit
f5a408d5 already, when we changed EWOULDBLOCK
to be equal to EAGAIN.

So, even if this is an ABI change, it's better to change it now and thus bring
PARISC Linux in sync with other architectures to avoid other issues in the
future.

Pull file locking related changes from Jeff Layton:
 "This release is a little more busy for file locking changes than the
  last:

   - a set of patches from Kinglong Mee to fix the lockowner handling in
     knfsd
   - a pile of cleanups to the internal file lease API.  This should get
     us a bit closer to allowing for setlease methods that can block.

  There are some dependencies between mine and Bruce's trees this cycle,
  and I based my tree on top of the requisite patches in Bruce's tree"

Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
 "This time it's a relatively calm update batch, but the amount isn't
  too small in the end.  Here we go over some highlights:

  ALSA core:
   - One major change is the support of nonatomic PCM operations.  This
     allows the trigger and other callbacks to call schedule(), which
     would be useful for mailbox type communications.  Already some
     drivers (Digigram ones) have been converted to use together with
     threaded irqs as an example.
   - Improvement / fixes of DSD PCM format support

  HD-audio:
   - Large volume of rewrites are found in Realtek codec driver for
     converting Dell and HP quirks to generic forms.
   - Inverted dmic code cleanup from David.
   - Realtek COEF access has been optimized.
   - Now HD-audio jack infrastructure allows multiple callbacks, which
     fixes / simplifies the jack-dependent power controls on STAC/IDT
     and VIA codecs.
   - Many additional device-specific fixups as usual
   - A few deadcode cleanups, CA0132 code cleanup, etc.

  ASoC:
   - More componentization work from Lars-Peter, this time mainly
     cleaning up the suspend and bias level transition callbacks.
   - Real system support for the Intel drivers and a bunch of fixes and
     enhancements for the associated CODEC drivers, this is going to
     need a lot quirks over time due to the lack of any firmware
     description of the boards.
   - Jack detect support for simple card from Dylan Reid.
   - A bunch of small fixes and enhancements for the Freescale drivers.
   - New drivers for Analog Devices SSM4567, Cirrus Logic CS35L32,
     Everest Semiconductor ES8328 and Freescale cards using the ASRC in
     newer i.MX processors.
   - A few simple-card fixes, mostly cleanups but also a fix for
     interaction between GPIO 0 and simple-card.

  Misc:
   - Virtuoso / Oxygen updates by Clemens
   - USB-audio: Yamaha MOTIF XF MIDI port name fixes
   - Conversion of kernel messages to standard dev_*() in ctxfi driver"
