linux-next: manual merge of the vfs tree with the overlayfs tree

From: Stephen Rothwell

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the vfs tree got conflicts in:

fs/open.c

between commit:

d4d6f39c507e ("vfs: optionally don't account file in nr_files")
88498a6bd8d1 ("vfs: simplify dentry_open()")

from the overlayfs tree and commit:

5f0cc0005d2e ("introduce FMODE_OPENED")
13fcca01ef86 ("now we can fold open_check_o_direct() into do_dentry_open()")
7dfb1eeaea37 ("introduce FMODE_CREATED and switch to it")

from the vfs tree.

I *think* I got this right, but please check. Is there some way that
these overlayfs commits can be integrated into the vfs tree development
(or vice versa). Also, I would expect to see *some* Reviewed-by or
Acked-by lines in all this work ...

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating
with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly
complex conflicts.
