m_start() drops ->mmap_sem and does mmput() if it retuns vsyscall
vma. This is because in this case m_stop()->vma_stop() obviously
can't use gate_vma->vm_mm.
Now that we have proc_maps_private->mm we can simplify this logic:
- Change m_start() to return with ->mmap_sem held unless it returns
IS_ERR_OR_NULL().
- Change vma_stop() to use priv->mm and avoid the ugly vma checks,
this makes "vm_area_struct *vma" unnecessary.
- This also allows m_start() to use vm_stop().
- Cleanup m_next() to follow the new locking rule.
Note: m_stop() looks very ugly, and this temporary uglifies it
even more. Fixed by the next change.

A simple test-case from Kirill Shutemov
cat /proc/self/maps >/dev/null
chmod +x /proc/self/net/packet
exec /proc/self/net/packet
makes lockdep unhappy, cat/exec take seq_file->lock + cred_guard_mutex in
the opposite order.
It's a false positive and probably we should not allow "chmod +x" on proc
files. Still I think that we should avoid mm_access() and cred_guard_mutex
in sys_read() paths, security checking should happen at open time. Besides,
this doesn't even look right if the task changes its ->mm between m_stop()
and m_start().
Add the new "mm_struct *mm" member into struct proc_maps_private and change
proc_maps_open() to initialize it using proc_mem_open(). Change m_start() to
use priv->mm if atomic_inc_not_zero(mm_users) succeeds or return NULL (eof)
otherwise.
The only complication is that proc_maps_open() users should additionally do
mmdrop() in fop->release(), add the new proc_map_release() helper for that.
Note: this is the user-visible change, if the task execs after open("maps")
the new ->mm won't be visible via this file. I hope this is fine, and this
matches /proc/pid/mem bahaviour.

get_gate_vma(priv->task->mm) looks ugly and wrong, task->mm can be NULL or
it can changed by exec right after mm_access().
And in theory this race is not harmless, the task can exec and then later
exit and free the new mm_struct. In this case get_task_mm(oldmm) can't
help, get_gate_vma(task->mm) can read the freed/unmapped memory.
I think that priv->task should simply die and hold_task_mempolicy() logic
can be simplified. tail_vma logic asks for cleanups too.

For commit ocfs2 journal, ocfs2 journal thread will acquire the mutex
osb->journal->j_trans_barrier and wake up jbd2 commit thread, then it
will wait until jbd2 commit thread done. In order journal mode, jbd2
needs flushing dirty data pages first, and this needs get page lock.
So osb->journal->j_trans_barrier should be got before page lock.
But ocfs2_write_zero_page() and ocfs2_write_begin_inline() obey this
locking order, and this will cause deadlock and hung the whole cluster.
One deadlock catched is the following:

Firing quorum before connection established can cause unexpected node to
reboot.
Assume there are 3 nodes in the cluster, Node 1, 2, 3. Node 2 and 3 have
wrong ip address of Node 1 in cluster.conf and global heartbeat is enabled
in the cluster. After the heatbeats are started on these three nodes,
Node 1 will reboot due to quorum fencing. It is similar case if Node 1's
networking is not ready when starting the global heartbeat.
The reboot is not friendly as customer is not fully ready for ocfs2 to
work. Fix it by not allowing firing quorum before the connection is
established. In this case, ocfs2 will wait until the wrong configuration
is fixed or networking is up to continue. Also update the log to guide
the user where to check when connection is not built for a long time.

Some UDF media have special inodes (like VAT or metadata partition
inodes) whose link_count is 0. Thus commit 4071b91362 (udf: Properly
detect stale inodes) broke loading these inodes because udf_iget()
started returning -ESTALE for them. Since we still need to properly
detect stale inodes queried by NFS, create two variants of udf_iget() -
one which is used for looking up special inodes (which ignores
link_count == 0) and one which is used for other cases which return
ESTALE when link_count == 0.

it is desirable to be able to kill it.
It happened to me that I wanted to copy a piece data from the disk to a
file. By mistake, I used the "seek" parameter to dd instead of "skip". Due
to the "seek" parameter, dd attempted to extend the file and became stuck
doing so - the only possibility was to reset the machine or wait many
hours until the filesystem runs out of space and cont_expand_zero fails.

The only reason for games with ->d_prune() was __d_drop(), which
was needed only to force dput() into killing the sucker off.
Note that lock_parent() can be called under ->i_lock and won't
drop it, so dentry is safe from somebody managing to kill it
under us - it won't happen while we are holding ->i_lock.
__dentry_kill() is called only with ->d_lockref.count being 0
(here and when picked from shrink list) or 1 (dput() and dropping
the ancestors in shrink_dentry_list()), so it will never be called
twice - the first thing it's doing is making ->d_lockref.count
negative and once that happens, nothing will increment it.

With the introduction of mount namespaces and bind mounts it became
possible to access files and directories that on some paths are mount
points but are not mount points on other paths. It is very confusing
when rm -rf somedir returns -EBUSY simply because somedir is mounted
somewhere else. With the addition of user namespaces allowing
unprivileged mounts this condition has gone from annoying to allowing
a DOS attack on other users in the system.
The possibility for mischief is removed by updating the vfs to support
rename, unlink and rmdir on a dentry that is a mountpoint and by
lazily unmounting mountpoints on deleted dentries.
In particular this change allows rename, unlink and rmdir system calls
on a dentry without a mountpoint in the current mount namespace to
succeed, and it allows rename, unlink, and rmdir performed on a
distributed filesystem to update the vfs cache even if when there is a
mount in some namespace on the original dentry.
There are two common patterns of maintaining mounts: Mounts on trusted
paths with the parent directory of the mount point and all ancestory
directories up to / owned by root and modifiable only by root
(i.e. /media/xxx, /dev, /dev/pts, /proc, /sys, /sys/fs/cgroup/{cpu,
cpuacct, ...}, /usr, /usr/local). Mounts on unprivileged directories
maintained by fusermount.
In the case of mounts in trusted directories owned by root and
modifiable only by root the current parent directory permissions are
sufficient to ensure a mount point on a trusted path is not removed
or renamed by anyone other than root, even if there is a context
where the there are no mount points to prevent this.
In the case of mounts in directories owned by less privileged users
races with users modifying the path of a mount point are already a
danger. fusermount already uses a combination of chdir,
/proc/<pid>/fd/NNN, and UMOUNT_NOFOLLOW to prevent these races. The
removable of global rename, unlink, and rmdir protection really adds
nothing new to consider only a widening of the attack window, and
fusermount is already safe against unprivileged users modifying the
directory simultaneously.
In principle for perfect userspace programs returning -EBUSY for
unlink, rmdir, and rename of dentires that have mounts in the local
namespace is actually unnecessary. Unfortunately not all userspace
programs are perfect so retaining -EBUSY for unlink, rmdir and rename
of dentries that have mounts in the current mount namespace plays an
important role of maintaining consistency with historical behavior and
making imperfect userspace applications hard to exploit.

v4: Simplified the changes to check_submounts_and_drop
Do not rename check_submounts_and_drop shrink_submounts_and_drop
Document what why we need atomicity in check_submounts_and_drop
Rely on the parent inode mutex to make d_revalidate and d_invalidate
an atomic unit.
v5: Refcount the mountpoint to detach in case of simultaneous
renames.

The new function detach_mounts comes in two pieces. The first piece
is a static inline test of d_mounpoint that returns immediately
without taking any locks if d_mounpoint is not set. In the common
case when mountpoints are absent this allows the vfs to continue
running with it's same cacheline foot print.
The second piece of detach_mounts __detach_mounts actually does the
work and it assumes that a mountpoint is present so it is slow and
takes namespace_sem for write, and then locks the mount hash (aka
mount_lock) after a struct mountpoint has been found.
With those two locks held each entry on the list of mounts on a
mountpoint is selected and lazily unmounted until all of the mount
have been lazily unmounted.
v7: Wrote a proper change description and removed the changelog
documenting deleted wrong turns.

I am shortly going to add a new user of struct mountpoint that
needs to look up existing entries but does not want to create
a struct mountpoint if one does not exist. Therefore to keep
the code simple and easy to read split out lookup_mountpoint
from new_mountpoint.

To spot any possible problems call BUG if a mountpoint
is put when it's list of mounts is not empty.
AV: use hlist instead of list_head
