Al Viro b26d4cd385 consolidate simple ->d_delete() instances
Rename simple_delete_dentry() to always_delete_dentry() and export it.
Export simple_dentry_operations, while we are at it, and get rid of
their duplicates

Linus Torvalds da53be12bb Don't pass inode to ->d_hash() and ->d_compare()
Instances either don't look at it at all (the majority of cases) or
only want it to find the superblock (which can be had as dentry->d_sb).
A few cases that want more are actually safe with dentry->d_inode -
the only precaution needed is the check that it hadn't been replaced with
NULL by rmdir() or by overwriting rename(), which case should be simply
treated as cache miss.

Linus Torvalds 20b4fb4852 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull VFS updates from Al Viro,

Misc cleanups all over the place, mainly wrt /proc interfaces (switch
create_proc_entry to proc_create(), get rid of the deprecated
create_proc_read_entry() in favor of using proc_create_data() and
seq_file etc).

7kloc removed.

Matt Fleming d68772b7c8 efivarfs: Move to fs/efivarfs
Now that efivarfs uses the efivar API, move it out of efivars.c and
into fs/efivarfs where it belongs. This move will eventually allow us
to enable the efivarfs code without having to also enable
CONFIG_EFI_VARS built, and vice versa.

Furthermore, things like,

    mount -t efivarfs none /sys/firmware/efi/efivars

will now work if efivarfs is built as a module without requiring the
use of MODULE_ALIAS(), which would have been necessary when the
efivarfs code was part of efivars.c.
