Merge branch 'work.namei' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull vfs name lookup updates from Al Viro: "Small namei.c patch series, mostly to simplify the rules for nameidata state. It's actually from the previous cycle - but I didn't post it for review in time... Changes visible outside of fs/namei.c: file_open_root() calling conventions change, some freed bits in LOOKUP_... space" * 'work.namei' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: namei: make sure nd->depth is always valid teach set_nameidata() to handle setting the root as well take LOOKUP_{ROOT,ROOT_GRABBED,JUMPED} out of LOOKUP_... space switch file_open_root() to struct path
