Hi Al, I'm sending this pull request to you instead of Linus, because a bigger than usual chunk involves the VFS. Please pull from: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs.git for-viro This update contains the following: - Deal with vfs_mkdir() not instantiating dentry. - Stack file operations. This solves the ro/rw file descriptor inconsistency, weirdness with ioctl, as well as removing a bunch of overlay specific hacks from the VFS. - Allow metadata-only copy-up when data is unchanged. - Various cleanups in VFS and overlayfs.
