Merge branch 'for-linus-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull more vfs updates from Al Viro:
 "Assorted stuff from this cycle.  The big ones here are multilayer
  overlayfs from Miklos and beginning of sorting ->d_inode accesses out
  from David"

* 'for-linus-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (51 commits)
  autofs4 copy_dev_ioctl(): keep the value of ->size we'd used for allocation
  procfs: fix race between symlink removals and traversals
  debugfs: leave freeing a symlink body until inode eviction
  Documentation/filesystems/Locking: ->get_sb() is long gone
  trylock_super(): replacement for grab_super_passive()
  fanotify: Fix up scripted S_ISDIR/S_ISREG/S_ISLNK conversions
  Cachefiles: Fix up scripted S_ISDIR/S_ISREG/S_ISLNK conversions
  VFS: (Scripted) Convert S_ISLNK/DIR/REG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_*(dentry)
  SELinux: Use d_is_positive() rather than testing dentry->d_inode
  Smack: Use d_is_positive() rather than testing dentry->d_inode
  TOMOYO: Use d_is_dir() rather than d_inode and S_ISDIR()
  Apparmor: Use d_is_positive/negative() rather than testing dentry->d_inode
  Apparmor: mediated_filesystem() should use dentry->d_sb not inode->i_sb
  VFS: Split DCACHE_FILE_TYPE into regular and special types
  VFS: Add a fallthrough flag for marking virtual dentries
  VFS: Add a whiteout dentry type
  VFS: Introduce inode-getting helpers for layered/unioned fs environments
  Infiniband: Fix potential NULL d_inode dereference
