Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sage/ceph-client

Pull ceph updates from Sage Weil:
 "This includes both the first pile of Ceph patches (which I sent to
  torvalds@vger, sigh) and a few new patches that add support for
  fscache for Ceph.  That includes a few fscache core fixes that David
  Howells asked go through the Ceph tree.  (Thanks go to Milosz Tanski
  for putting this feature together)

  This first batch of patches (included here) had (has) several
  important RBD bug fixes, hole punch support, several different
  cleanups in the page cache interactions, improvements in the truncate
  code (new truncate mutex to avoid shenanigans with i_mutex), and a
  series of fixes in the synchronous striping read/write code.

  On top of that is a random collection of small fixes all across the
  tree (error code checks and error path cleanup, obsolete wq flags,
  etc)"
