Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6: (57 commits) tidy the trailing symlinks traversal up Turn resolution of trailing symlinks iterative everywhere simplify link_path_walk() tail Make trailing symlink resolution in path_lookupat() iterative update nd->inode in __do_follow_link() instead of after do_follow_link() pull handling of one pathname component into a helper fs: allow AT_EMPTY_PATH in linkat(), limit that to CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH Allow passing O_PATH descriptors via SCM_RIGHTS datagrams readlinkat(), fchownat() and fstatat() with empty relative pathnames Allow O_PATH for symlinks New kind of open files - "location only". ext4: Copy fs UUID to superblock ext3: Copy fs UUID to superblock. vfs: Export file system uuid via /proc/<pid>/mountinfo unistd.h: Add new syscalls numbers to asm-generic x86: Add new syscalls for x86_64 x86: Add new syscalls for x86_32 fs: Remove i_nlink check from file system link callback fs: Don't allow to create hardlink for deleted file vfs: Add open by file handle support ...
