c2050a454c fs: Replace current_fs_time() with current_time()
current_fs_time() uses struct super_block* as an argument.
As per Linus's suggestion, this is changed to take struct
inode* as a parameter instead. This is because the function
is primarily meant for vfs inode timestamps.
Also the function was renamed as per Arnd's suggestion.

Change all calls to current_fs_time() to use the new
current_time() function instead. current_fs_time() will be
deleted.

3767e255b3 switch ->setxattr() to passing dentry and inode separately
smack ->d_instantiate() uses ->setxattr(), so to be able to call it before
we'd hashed the new dentry and attached it to inode, we need ->setxattr()
instances getting the inode as an explicit argument rather than obtaining
it from dentry.

Similar change for ->getxattr() had been done in commit ce23e64.  Unlike
->getxattr() (which is used by both selinux and smack instances of
->d_instantiate()) ->setxattr() is used only by smack one and unfortunately
it got missed back then.

3a3a5fece6 fs: kernfs: Replace CURRENT_TIME by current_fs_time()
This is in preparation for the series that transitions
filesystem timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make
them y2038 safe.

CURRENT_TIME macro will be deleted before merging the
aforementioned series.

Use current_fs_time() instead of CURRENT_TIME for inode
timestamps.

struct kernfs_node is associated with a sysfs file/ directory.
Truncate the values to appropriate time granularity when
writing to inode timestamps of the files.

ktime_get_real_ts() is used to obtain times for
struct kernfs_iattrs. Since these times are later assigned to
inode times using timespec_truncate() for all filesystem based
operations, we can save the supers list traversal time here by
using ktime_get_real_ts() directly.

4afddd60a7 kernfs: protect lazy kernfs_iattrs allocation with mutex
kernfs_iattrs is allocated lazily when operations which require it
take place; unfortunately, the lazy allocation and returning weren't
properly synchronized and when there are multiple concurrent
operations, it might end up returning kernfs_iattrs which hasn't
finished initialization yet or different copies to different callers.

Fix it by synchronizing with a mutex.  This can be smarter with memory
barriers but let's go there if it actually turns out to be necessary.

91b0abe36a mm + fs: store shadow entries in page cache
Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon
evicting the real page.  As those pages are found from the LRU, an
iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently.  At this point,
reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing
code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty.

Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets
under the tree lock before doing the final truncate.  Reclaim will check
for this flag before installing shadow pages.

Because md, mic and gpio dig into sysfs details, this patch ends up
modifying them.  All are sysfs_dirent renames and trivial.  While we
can avoid these by introducing a dummy wrapping struct sysfs_dirent
around kernfs_node, given the limited usage outside kernfs and sysfs
proper, I don't think such workaround is called for.

2322392b02 kernfs: implement "trusted.*" xattr support
kernfs inherited "security.*" xattr support from sysfs.  This patch
extends xattr support to "trusted.*" using simple_xattr_*().  As
trusted xattrs are restricted to CAP_SYS_ADMIN, simple_xattr_*() which
uses kernel memory for storage shouldn't be problematic.

Note that the existing "security.*" support doesn't implement
get/remove/list and the this patch only implements those ops for
"trusted.*".  We probably want to extend those ops to include support
for "security.*".

This patch will allow using kernfs from cgroup which requires
"trusted.*" xattr support.

9a8049affd kernfs: update sysfs_init_inode_attrs()
sysfs_init_inode_attrs() is a bit clumsy to use requiring the caller
to check whether @sd->s_iattr is already set or not.  Rename it to
sysfs_inode_attrs(), update it to check whether @sd->s_iattr is
already initialized before trying to initialize it and return
@sd->s_iattr.  This simplifies the callers.

While at it,

* Rename struct sysfs_inode_attrs pointer variables to "attrs".  As
  kernfs no longer deals with "struct attribute", this isn't confusing
  and makes it easier to distinguish from struct iattr pointers.

* A new field will be added to sysfs_inode_attrs.  Reindent in
  preparation.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

4b93dc9b1c sysfs, kernfs: prepare mount path for kernfs
We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly.  This patch
rearranges mount path so that the kernfs and sysfs parts are separate.

* As sysfs_super_info won't be visible outside kernfs proper,
  kernfs_super_ns() is added to allow kernfs users to access a
  super_block's namespace tag.

* Generic mount operation is separated out into kernfs_mount_ns().
  sysfs_mount() now just performs sysfs-specific permission check,
  acquires namespace tag, and invokes kernfs_mount_ns().

* Generic superblock release is separated out into kernfs_kill_sb()
  which can be used directly as file_system_type->kill_sb().  As sysfs
  needs to put the namespace tag, sysfs_kill_sb() wraps
  kernfs_kill_sb() with ns tag put.

* sysfs_dir_cachep init and sysfs_inode_init() are separated out into
  kernfs_init().  kernfs_init() uses only small amount of memory and
  trying to handle and propagate kernfs_init() failure doesn't make
  much sense.  Use SLAB_PANIC for sysfs_dir_cachep and make
  sysfs_inode_init() panic on failure.

  After this change, kernfs_init() should be called before
  sysfs_init(), fs/namespace.c::mnt_init() modified accordingly.

fs/sysfs/sysfs.h are moved to fs/kernfs/kernfs-internal.h.

This is pure relocation.

b8441ed279 sysfs, kernfs: add skeletons for kernfs
Core sysfs implementation will be separated into kernfs so that it can
be used by other non-kobject users.

This patch creates fs/kernfs/ directory and makes boilerplate changes.
kernfs interface will be directly based on sysfs_dirent and its
forward declaration is moved to include/linux/kernfs.h which is
included from include/linux/sysfs.h.  sysfs core implementation will
be gradually separated out and moved to kernfs.

This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.

v2: mount.c added.
