Nitpick: I don't think verbose kerneldoc comments on functions
implementing VFS or other core kernel methods calls are useful. In
many ways they actually are harmful, as they are almost guranteed
to be out of date eventually, e.g. in this case if someone finally
decided to kill the pointless inode argument using a script.

Why is this a sf_ prefix instead of vboxsf?

Any chance to use a more normal naming scheme here, e.g.:
struct vboxsf_sbi *sbi = VBOXSF_SBI(inode->i_sb);

Why not normal goto based unwinding here:
err = vboxsf_create_at_dentry(file_dentry(file), ¶ms);
if (err)
goto out_free_dir_info;
if (params.result == SHFL_FILE_EXISTS) {
err = -ENOENT;
goto out_close;
}
err = vboxsf_dir_read_all(sf_g, sf_d, params.handle);
if (err)
goto out_close;
file->private_data = sf_d;
return 0;
out_close:
vboxsf_close(sf_g->root, params.handle);
out_free_dir_info:
vboxsf_dir_info_free(sf_d);
return err;

Array sizing in parameters in C is ignored, so this is a bit mislead.
I'd just use a normal char pointer. But more importantly it would
seem saner to pass down the dir context, so that we can just call
dir_emit on the original string and avoid a pointless memcpy for the
non-nls case.

I'd really like to see Al look over all the dentry stuff, and the
by path operations later on, as some of this looks rather odd, but
It's been a while since I have been fluent in that area.

The normal name for this would be VOXSF_I.

Where does the aux come from? The name sounds a little weird.

You can just set both methods to the same function and check S_IDIR
to handle rmdir vs unlink.

Use a goto to share the cleanup code?

Use min/min_t, please.

Please implement read_iter/write_iter for a new file system.
Also these casts to uintptr_t for a call that reads data look very
odd.

Why?

Also this whole write function seems to miss i_rwsem.

I think you really need to use the page cache for regular writes
insted of coming up with your own ad-hoc cache coherency scheme.

What is this supposed to help with?

No need to have a wrapper for this assignment.

No need for a cast here.

I think you want to implement the new free_inode callback instead.
