unfortunately, just checking MS_BORN after having grabbed ->s_umount in
sget() is not enough; places that pick superblock from a list and
grab s_umount shared need the same check in addition to checking for
->s_root; otherwise three-way race between failing mount, sget() and
such list-walker can leave us with list-walker coming *second*, when
temporary active ref grabbed by sget() (to be dropped when sget()
notices that original mount has failed by checking MS_BORN) has
lead to deactivate_locked_super() from failing ->mount() *not* doing
->kill_sb() and just releasing ->s_umount. Once sget() gets through
and notices that MS_BORN had never been set it will drop the active
ref and fs will be shut down and kicked out of all lists, but it's
too late for something like sync_supers().

Seeing that just about every destructor got that INIT_LIST_HEAD() copied into
it, there is no point whatsoever keeping this INIT_LIST_HEAD in inode_init_once();
the cost of taking it into inode_init_always() will be negligible for pipes
and sockets and negative for everything else. Not to mention the removal of
boilerplate code from ->destroy_inode() instances...

a) mount --move is checking that ->mnt_parent is non-NULL before
looking if that parent happens to be shared; ->mnt_parent is never
NULL and it's not even an misspelled !mnt_has_parent()
b) pivot_root open-codes is_path_reachable(), poorly.
c) so does path_is_under(), while we are at it.

vfsmounts have ->mnt_parent pointing either to a different vfsmount
or to itself; it's never NULL and termination condition in loops
traversing the tree towards root is mnt == mnt->mnt_parent. At least
one place (see the next patch) is confused about what's going on;
let's add an explicit helper checking it right way and use it in
all places where we need it. Not that there had been too many,

Commit 2a95ea6c0d ("procfs: do not overflow get_{idle,iowait}_time
for nohz") did not take into account that one some architectures jiffies
and cputime use different units.
This causes get_idle_time() to return numbers in the wrong units, making
the idle time fields in /proc/stat wrong.
Instead of converting the usec value returned by
get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us to units of jiffies, use the new function
usecs_to_cputime64 to convert it to the correct unit of cputime64_t.

Bruce Fields notes that commit 778fc546f7 ("locks: fix tracking of
inprogress lease breaks") introduced a possible error pointer
dereference on failure to allocate memory. locks_conflict() will
dereference the passed-in new lease lock structure that may be an error pointer.
This means an open (without O_NONBLOCK set) on a file with a lease
applied (generally only done when Samba or nfsd (with v4) is running)
could crash if a kmalloc() fails.
So instead of playing games with IS_ERROR() all over the place, just
check the allocation failure early. That makes the code more
straightforward, and avoids this possible bad pointer dereference.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs:
Btrfs: call d_instantiate after all ops are setup
Btrfs: fix worker lock misuse in find_worker
Since Linux 2.6.36 the writeback code has introduces various measures for
live lock prevention during sync(). Unfortunately some of these are
actively harmful for the XFS model, where the inode gets marked dirty for
metadata from the data I/O handler.
The older_than_this checks that are now more strictly enforced since
writeback: avoid livelocking WB_SYNC_ALL writeback
by only calling into __writeback_inodes_sb and thus only sampling the
current cut off time once. But on a slow enough devices the previous
asynchronous sync pass might not have fully completed yet, and thus XFS
might mark metadata dirty only after that sampling of the cut off time for
the blocking pass already happened. I have not myself reproduced this
myself on a real system, but by introducing artificial delay into the
XFS I/O completion workqueues it can be reproduced easily.
Fix this by iterating over all XFS inodes in ->sync_fs and log all that
are dirty. This might log inode that only got redirtied after the
previous pass, but given how cheap delayed logging of inodes is it
isn't a major concern for performance.

If the writeback code writes back an inode because it has expired we currently
use the non-blockin ->write_inode path. This means any inode that is pinned
is skipped. With delayed logging and a workload that has very little log
traffic otherwise it is very likely that an inode that gets constantly
written to is always pinned, and thus we keep refusing to write it. The VM
writeback code at that point redirties it and doesn't try to write it again
for another 30 seconds. This means under certain scenarious time based
metadata writeback never happens.
Fix this by calling into xfs_log_inode for kupdate in addition to data
integrity syncs, and thus transfer the inode to the log ASAP.
