Linus Torvalds 1aef882f02 xfs: update for 4.1-rc1
This update contains:
 o RENAME_WHITEOUT support
 o conversion of per-cpu superblock accounting to use generic counters
 o new inode mmap lock so that we can lock page faults out of truncate, hole
   punch and other direct extent manipulation functions to avoid racing mmap
   writes from causing data corruption
 o rework of direct IO submission and completion to solve data corruption issue
   when running concurrent extending DIO writes. Also solves problem of running
   IO completion transactions in interrupt context during size extending AIO
   writes.
 o FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE support for inserting holes into a file via direct
   extent manipulation to avoid needing to copy data within the file
 o attribute block header field overflow fix for 64k block size filesystems
 o Lots of changes to log messaging to be more informative and concise when
   errors occur. Also prevent a lot of unnecessary log spamming due to cascading
   failures in error conditions.
 o lots of cleanups and bug fixes

  One thing of note is the direct IO fixes that we merged last week
  after the window opened.  Even though a little late, they fix a user
  reported data corruption and have been pretty well tested.  I figured
  there was not much point waiting another 2 weeks for -rc1 to be
  released just so I could send them to you..."
