Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull vfs fixes from Al Viro:
 "Followups to the parallel lookup work:

   - update docs

   - restore killability of the places that used to take ->i_mutex
     killably now that we have down_write_killable() merged

   - Additionally, it turns out that I missed a prerequisite for
     security_d_instantiate() stuff - ->getxattr() wasn't the only thing
     that could be called before dentry is attached to inode; with smack
     we needed the same treatment applied to ->setxattr() as well"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  switch ->setxattr() to passing dentry and inode separately
  switch xattr_handler->set() to passing dentry and inode separately
  restore killability of old mutex_lock_killable(&inode->i_mutex) users
  add down_write_killable_nested()
  update D/f/directory-locking
