    Merge branch 'work.mqueue' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs · 8b0fdf63
    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull mqueue/bpf vfs cleanups from Al Viro:
     "mqueue and bpf go through rather painful and similar contortions to
      create objects in their dentry trees. Provide a primitive for doing
      that without abusing ->mknod(), switch bpf and mqueue to it.
    
      Another mqueue-related thing that has ended up in that branch is
      on-demand creation of internal mount (based upon the work of Giuseppe
      Scrivano)"
    
    * 'work.mqueue' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
      mqueue: switch to on-demand creation of internal mount
      tidy do_mq_open() up a bit
      mqueue: clean prepare_open() up
      do_mq_open(): move all work prior to dentry_open() into a helper
      mqueue: fold mq_attr_ok() into mqueue_get_inode()
      move dentry_open() calls up into do_mq_open()
      mqueue: switch to vfs_mkobj(), quit abusing ->d_fsdata
      bpf_obj_do_pin(): switch to vfs_mkobj(), quit abusing ->mknod()
      new primitive: vfs_mkobj()
