Subject: revoke: misc fixes
From: Pekka Enberg <penberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This is a rollup patch of the following fixes to address some of Andrew's
review comments:

  - Fix return value type of system calls to long
  - Add comment for vma->vm_flag barrier
  - No need for GFP_NOFS for inode allocation, use GFP_KERNEL instead
  - Remove unnecessary line break before EXPORT_SYMBOL
