Linus Torvalds 56897d5188 Tracing and eventfs fixes for v6.8:
- Fix the return code for ring_buffer_poll_wait()
   It was returing a -EINVAL instead of EPOLLERR.
 
 - Zero out the tracefs_inode so that all fields are initialized.
   The ti->private could have had stale data, but instead of
   just initializing it to NULL, clear out the entire structure
   when it is allocated.
 
 - Fix a crash in timerlat
   The hrtimer was initialized at read and not open, but is
   canceled at close. If the file was opened and never read
   the close will pass a NULL pointer to hrtime_cancel().
 
 - Rewrite of eventfs.
   Linus wrote a patch series to remove the dentry references in the
   eventfs_inode and to use ref counting and more of proper VFS
   interfaces to make it work.
 
 - Add warning to put_ei() if ei is not set to free. That means
   something is about to free it when it shouldn't.
 
 - Restructure the eventfs_inode to make it more compact, and remove
   the unused llist field.
 
 - Remove the fsnotify*() funtions for when the inodes were being created
   in the lookup code. It doesn't make sense to notify about creation
   just because something is being looked up.
 
 - The inode hard link count was not accurate. It was being updated
   when a file was looked up. The inodes of directories were updating
   their parent inode hard link count every time the inode was created.
   That means if memory reclaim cleaned a stale directory inode and
   the inode was lookup up again, it would increment the parent inode
   again as well. Al Viro said to just have all eventfs directories
   have a hard link count of 1. That tells user space not to trust it.
