    Linus Torvalds 提交于
    Pull vfs update from Al Viro:
    
     - big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
       that is moved to fs/file.c
    
       (BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c.  As it is,
       we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
       file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
       are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
       struct file we used to have way back).
    
       A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
       disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
       doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore.  A bunch of
       relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
       leak.
    
     - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
       there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).
    
     - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
       that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
       switch of fdinfo to seq_file.
    
     - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
       take that commit than mess with conflicts.  The rest is a separate
       pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.
    
     - a few misc patches all over the place.  Not all for this cycle,
       there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."
    
    Fix up trivial conflicts in the android binder driver, and some fairly
    simple conflicts due to two different changes to the sock_alloc_file()
    interface ("take descriptor handling from sock_alloc_file() to callers"
    vs "net: Providing protocol type via system.sockprotoname xattr of
    /proc/PID/fd entries" adding a dentry name to the socket)
