Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull third hunk of vfs changes from Al Viro: "This contains the ->direct_IO() changes from Omar + saner generic_write_checks() + dealing with fcntl()/{read,write}() races (mirroring O_APPEND/O_DIRECT into iocb->ki_flags and instead of repeatedly looking at ->f_flags, which can be changed by fcntl(2), check ->ki_flags - which cannot) + infrastructure bits for dhowells' d_inode annotations + Christophs switch of /dev/loop to vfs_iter_write()" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (30 commits) block: loop: switch to VFS ITER_BVEC configfs: Fix inconsistent use of file_inode() vs file->f_path.dentry->d_inode VFS: Make pathwalk use d_is_reg() rather than S_ISREG() VFS: Fix up debugfs to use d_is_dir() in place of S_ISDIR() VFS: Combine inode checks with d_is_negative() and d_is_positive() in pathwalk NFS: Don't use d_inode as a variable name VFS: Impose ordering on accesses of d_inode and d_flags VFS: Add owner-filesystem positive/negative dentry checks nfs: generic_write_checks() shouldn't be done on swapout... ocfs2: use __generic_file_write_iter() mirror O_APPEND and O_DIRECT into iocb->ki_flags switch generic_write_checks() to iocb and iter ocfs2: move generic_write_checks() before the alignment checks ocfs2_file_write_iter: stop messing with ppos udf_file_write_iter: reorder and simplify fuse: ->direct_IO() doesn't need generic_write_checks() ext4_file_write_iter: move generic_write_checks() up xfs_file_aio_write_checks: switch to iocb/iov_iter generic_write_checks(): drop isblk argument blkdev_write_iter: expand generic_file_checks() call in there ...
