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

From: Stephen Rothwell

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the pidfd tree got a conflict in:

fs/namei.c

between commit:

e36cffed20a3 ("fs: make unlazy_walk() error handling consistent")
1e8f44f159b3 ("do_tmpfile(): don't mess with finish_open()")

from the vfs tree and commit:

47291baa8ddf ("namei: make permission helpers idmapped mount aware")
ba73d98745be ("namei: handle idmapped mounts in may_*() helpers")
549c7297717c ("fs: make helpers idmap mount aware")

from the pidfd tree.

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.
