Remove the slight chance that uids and gids in coda messages will be
interpreted in the wrong user namespace.
- Only allow processes in the initial user namespace to open the coda
character device to communicate with coda filesystems.
- Explicitly convert the uids in the coda header into the initial user
namespace.
- In coda_vattr_to_attr make kuids and kgids from the initial user
namespace uids and gids in struct coda_vattr that just came from
userspace.
- In coda_iattr_to_vattr convert kuids and kgids into uids and gids
in the intial user namespace and store them in struct coda_vattr for
sending to coda userspace programs.
Nothing needs to be changed with mounts as coda does not support
being mounted in anything other than the initial user namespace.

While fixing CONFIG_ leakages to the userspace kernel headers I ran into
CODA_FS_OLD_API.
After five years, are there still people using the old API left?
Especially considering that you have to choose at compile time which API
to support in the kernel (and distributions tend to offer the new API for
some time).
Jan: "The old API can definitely go. Around the time the new
interface went in there were some non-Coda userspace file system
implementations that took a while longer to convert to the new API,
but by now they all switched to the new interface or in some cases
to a FUSE-based solution."

This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode. Filesystems that want
to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr
routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function.
Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect)
values for i_blksize.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
