While fixing CONFIG_ leakages to the userspace kernel headers I ran into
CODA_FS_OLD_API.

After five years, are there still people using the old API left?
Especially considering that you have to choose at compile time which API
to support in the kernel (and distributions tend to offer the new API for
some time).

Jan: "The old API can definitely go.  Around the time the new
      interface went in there were some non-Coda userspace file system
      implementations that took a while longer to convert to the new API,
      but by now they all switched to the new interface or in some cases
      to a FUSE-based solution."

The set of functions process_session, task_session, process_group and
task_pgrp is confusing, as the names can be mixed with each other when looking
at the code for a long time.

The proposals are to
* equip the functions that return the integer with _nr suffix to
  represent that fact,
* and to make all functions work with task (not process) by making
  the common prefix of the same name.

For monotony the routines signal_session() and set_signal_session() are
replaced with task_session_nr() and set_task_session(), especially since they
are only used with the explicit task->signal dereference.

This is an variation on the patch sent by Christoph Hellwig which kills
file_count abuse by the Coda kernel module by moving the coda_flush
functionality into coda_release.  However part of reason we were using the
coda_flush callback was to allow Coda to pass errors that occur during
writeback from the userspace cache manager back to close().

As Al Viro explained on linux-fsdevel, it is impossible to guarantee that
such errors can in fact be returned back to the caller.  There are many
cases where the last reference to a file is not released by the close
system call and it is also impossible to pick some close as a 'last-close'
and delay it until all other references have been destroyed.

The CODA_STORE/CODA_RELEASE upcall combination is clearly a broken design,
and it is better to remove it completely.

	a) switch by loff_t == __cmpdi2 use.  Replaced with a couple
of obvious ifs; update of ->f_pos in the first one makes sure that we
do the right thing in all cases.
	b) block_signals() and unblock_signals() are globals on UML.
Renamed coda ones; in principle UML probably ought to do rename as
well, but that's another story.

First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
	alpha alpha-up

Give the statfs superblock operation a dentry pointer rather than a superblock
pointer.

This complements the get_sb() patch.  That reduced the significance of
sb->s_root, allowing NFS to place a fake root there.  However, NFS does
require a dentry to use as a target for the statfs operation.  This permits
the root in the vfsmount to be used instead.

linux/mount.h has been added where necessary to make allyesconfig build
successfully.

Interest has also been expressed for use with the FUSE and XFS filesystems.

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!
