Linus Torvalds b403f23044 We've got ten patches this time, half of which are related to a plethora
of nasty outcomes when inodes are transitioned from the unlinked state
 to the free state. Small file systems are particularly vulnerable to these
 problems, and it can manifest as mainly hangs, but also file system
 corruption. The patches have been tested for literally many weeks, with a
 very gruelling test, so I have a high level of confidence.
 
 - Andreas Gruenbacher wrote a series of 5 patches for various lockups
   during the transition of inodes from unlinked to free. The main patch
   is titled "Fix gfs2_lookup_by_inum lock inversion" and the other 4 are
   support and cleanup patches related to that.
 - Ben Marzinski contributed 2 patches with regard to a recreatable
   problem when gfs2 tries to write a page to a file that is being
   truncated, resulting in a BUG() in gfs2_remove_from_journal.
   Note that Ben had to export vfs function __block_write_full_page to get
   this to work properly. It's been posted a long time and he talked to
   various VFS people about it, and nobody seemed to mind.
 - I contributed 3 patches. (1) The first one fixes a memory corruptor:
   a race in which one process can overwrite the gl_object pointer set by
   another process, causing kernel panic and other symptoms. (2) The second
   patch fixes another race that resulted in a false-positive BUG_ON. This
   occurred when resource group reservations were freed by one process
   while another process was trying to grab a new reservation in the same
   resource group. (3) The third patch fixes a problem with doing journal
   replay when the journals are not all the same size.
