Merge tag 'vfs-6.15-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "Features:

   - Add CONFIG_DEBUG_VFS infrastucture:
      - Catch invalid modes in open
      - Use the new debug macros in inode_set_cached_link()
      - Use debug-only asserts around fd allocation and install

   - Place f_ref to 3rd cache line in struct file to resolve false
     sharing

Cleanups:

   - Start using anon_inode_getfile_fmode() helper in various places

   - Don't take f_lock during SEEK_CUR if exclusion is guaranteed by
     f_pos_lock

   - Add unlikely() to kcmp()

   - Remove legacy ->remount_fs method from ecryptfs after port to the
     new mount api

   - Remove invalidate_inodes() in favour of evict_inodes()

   - Simplify ep_busy_loopER by removing unused argument

   - Avoid mmap sem relocks when coredumping with many missing pages

   - Inline getname()

   - Inline new_inode_pseudo() and de-staticize alloc_inode()

   - Dodge an atomic in putname if ref == 1

   - Consistently deref the files table with rcu_dereference_raw()

   - Dedup handling of struct filename init and refcounts bumps

   - Use wq_has_sleeper() in end_dir_add()

   - Drop the lock trip around I_NEW wake up in evict()

   - Load the ->i_sb pointer once in inode_sb_list_{add,del}

   - Predict not reaching the limit in alloc_empty_file()

   - Tidy up do_sys_openat2() with likely/unlikely

   - Call inode_sb_list_add() outside of inode hash lock

   - Sort out fd allocation vs dup2 race commentary

   - Turn page_offset() into a wrapper around folio_pos()

   - Remove locking in exportfs around ->get_parent() call

   - try_lookup_one_len() does not need any locks in autofs

   - Fix return type of several functions from long to int in open

   - Fix return type of several functions from long to int in ioctls

  Fixes:

   - Fix watch queue accounting mismatch"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
