OK, pulled into vfs.git, followups in question added.  Also there: fix for
a long-standing leak in d_splice_alias() failure exits.  Guys, could you
check that current vfs.git#for-linus survives your local tests?  Seems to
survive here; if I don't hear of any problems by tomorrow morning, to Linus
it goes...  FWIW, for that pull request stats would be
