Linus Torvalds cbfe0de303 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull VFS changes from Al Viro:
 "First pile out of several (there _definitely_ will be more).  Stuff in
  this one:

   - unification of d_splice_alias()/d_materialize_unique()

   - iov_iter rewrite

   - killing a bunch of ->f_path.dentry users (and f_dentry macro).

     Getting that completed will make life much simpler for
     unionmount/overlayfs, since then we'll be able to limit the places
     sensitive to file _dentry_ to reasonably few.  Which allows to have
     file_inode(file) pointing to inode in a covered layer, with dentry
     pointing to (negative) dentry in union one.

     Still not complete, but much closer now.

   - crapectomy in lustre (dead code removal, mostly)

   - "let's make seq_printf return nothing" preparations

   - assorted cleanups and fixes

  There _definitely_ will be more piles"
