Well, it's not especially important that target->d_iname get the contents
of dentry->d_iname, but it's important that it get initialized with
*something*, otherwise we're just exposing some random piece of memory to
anyone who reads the link at /proc/<pid>/fd/<fd> for the deleted file, when
it's still held open by someone.
I've run a test program that copies a short (<36 character) name ontop of a
long (>=36 character) name and see that the first time I run it, without
this patch, I get unpredicatable results out of /proc/<pid>/fd/<fd>.

Fix a panic due to access NULL pointer of kmem_cache_node at discard_slab()
after memory online.
When memory online is called, kmem_cache_nodes are created for all SLUBs
for new node whose memory are available.
slab_mem_going_online_callback() is called to make kmem_cache_node() in
callback of memory online event. If it (or other callbacks) fails, then
slab_mem_offline_callback() is called for rollback.
In memory offline, slab_mem_going_offline_callback() is called to shrink
all slub cache, then slab_mem_offline_callback() is called later.

Current memory notifier has some defects yet. (Fortunately, nothing uses
it.) This patch is to fix and rearrange for them.
- Add information of start_pfn, nr_pages, and node id if node status is
changes from/to memoryless node for callback functions.
Callbacks can't do anything without those information.
- Add notification going-online status.
It is necessary for creating per node structure before the node's
pages are available.
- Move GOING_OFFLINE status notification after page isolation.
It is good place for return memory like cache for callback,
because returned page is not used again.
- Make CANCEL events for rollingback when error occurs.
- Delete MEM_MAPPING_INVALID notification. It will be not used.
- Fix compile error of (un)register_memory_notifier().

This patch uses the updated boot protocol to do paravirtualized boot.
If the boot version is >= 2.07, then it will do two things:
1. Check the bootparams loadflags to see if we should reload the
segment registers and clear interrupts. This is appropriate
for normal native boot and some paravirtualized environments, but
inapproprate for others.
2. Check the hardware architecture, and dispatch to the appropriate
kernel entrypoint. If the bootloader doesn't set this, then we
simply do the normal boot sequence.

Updates for version 2.07 of the boot protocol. This includes:
load_flags.KEEP_SEGMENTS- flag to request/inhibit segment reloads
hardware_subarch - what subarchitecture we're booting under
hardware_subarch_data - per-architecture data
The intention of these changes is to make booting a paravirtualized
kernel work via the normal Linux boot protocol.

New kind of audit rule predicates: "object is visible in given subtree".
The part that can be sanely implemented, that is. Limitations:
* if you have hardlink from outside of tree, you'd better watch
it too (or just watch the object itself, obviously)
* if you mount something under a watched tree, tell audit
that new chunk should be added to watched subtrees
* if you umount something in a watched tree and it's still mounted
elsewhere, you will get matches on events happening there. New command
tells audit to recalculate the trees, trimming such sources of false
positives.
Note that it's _not_ about path - if something mounted in several places
(multiple mount, bindings, different namespaces, etc.), the match does
_not_ depend on which one we are using for access.

This reverts commit a5bf3d891a.
David Brownell notes that this causes a regression visible in the
drivers/usb/gadget Kconfig file:
"That Kconfig hasn't changed (other than adding new drivers), and it's
worked that way for several years now ... so the issue seems to be
changes in menuconfig/kconfig/etc semantics.
The issue is that when USB_GADGET=m, it's no longer possible to
configure peripheral controller drivers as modules ... the
controller drivers can now only be configured for static linkage.
It should be making a choice of one of the controller drivers which
could work on the target system, and allow that driver to be linked
either as a module (ok iff USB_GADGET=m) or statically."
Reverting this commit resolves the problem, and also fixes a second
problem that David noticed: various dependent options couldn't be enabled.
