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

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:

 - Preparations of parallel lookups (the remaining main obstacle is the
   need to move security_d_instantiate(); once that becomes safe, the
   rest will be a matter of rather short series local to fs/*.c

 - preadv2/pwritev2 series from Christoph

 - assorted fixes

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (32 commits)
  splice: handle zero nr_pages in splice_to_pipe()
  vfs: show_vfsstat: do not ignore errors from show_devname method
  dcache.c: new helper: __d_add()
  don't bother with __d_instantiate(dentry, NULL)
  untangle fsnotify_d_instantiate() a bit
  uninline d_add()
  replace d_add_unique() with saner primitive
  quota: use lookup_one_len_unlocked()
  cifs_get_root(): use lookup_one_len_unlocked()
  nfs_lookup: don't bother with d_instantiate(dentry, NULL)
  kill dentry_unhash()
  ceph_fill_trace(): don't bother with d_instantiate(dn, NULL)
  autofs4: don't bother with d_instantiate(dentry, NULL) in ->lookup()
  configfs: move d_rehash() into configfs_create() for regular files
  ceph: don't bother with d_rehash() in splice_dentry()
  namei: teach lookup_slow() to skip revalidate
  namei: massage lookup_slow() to be usable by lookup_one_len_unlocked()
  lookup_one_len_unlocked(): use lookup_dcache()
  namei: simplify invalidation logics in lookup_dcache()
  namei: change calling conventions for lookup_{fast,slow} and follow_managed()
