it's always equal to ->d_sb of the second argument (parent dentry),
due to either being literally that, or ->d_sb of parent's parent.

Christopher reported a regression where he was unable to unmount a NFS
filesystem where the root had gone stale. The problem is that
d_revalidate handles the root of the filesystem differently from other
dentries, but d_weak_revalidate does not. We could simply fix this by
making d_weak_revalidate return success on IS_ROOT dentries, but there
are cases where we do want to revalidate the root of the fs.
A umount is really a special case. We generally aren't interested in
anything but the dentry and vfsmount that's attached at that point. If
the inode turns out to be stale we just don't care since the intent is
to stop using it anyway.
Try to handle this situation better by treating umount as a special
case in the lookup code. Have it resolve the parent using normal
means, and then do a lookup of the final dentry without revalidating
it. In most cases, the final lookup will come out of the dcache, but
the case where there's a trailing symlink or !LAST_NORM entry on the
end complicates things a bit.

The d_prune dentry operation is used to notify filesystem when VFS
about to prune a hashed dentry from the dcache. There are three
code paths that prune dentries: shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree(),
prune_dcache_sb() and d_prune_aliases(). For the d_prune_aliases()
case, VFS unhashes the dentry first, then call the d_prune dentry
operation. This confuses ceph_d_prune() (ceph uses the d_prune
dentry operation to maintain a flag indicating whether the complete
contents of a directory are in the dcache, pruning unhashed dentry
does not affect dir's completeness)
This patch fixes the issue by calling the d_prune dentry operation
in d_prune_aliases(), before unhashing the dentry. Also make VFS
only call the d_prune dentry operation for hashed dentry, to avoid
calling the d_prune dentry operation twice when dentry is pruned
by d_prune_aliases().

This should actually be returning an ERR_PTR on error instead of NULL.
That was how it was designed and all the callers expect it.
[AV: actually, that's what "VFS: Make clone_mnt()/copy_tree()/collect_mounts()
return errors" missed - originally collect_mounts() was expected to return
NULL on failure]

dynamic_dname() is both too much and too little for those - the
output may be well in excess of 64 bytes dynamic_dname() assumes
to be enough (thanks to ashmem feeding really long names to
shmem_file_setup()) and vsnprintf() is an overkill for those
guys.

Commit 0713ed0cde added
jbd2_journal_file_inode() call into ext4_block_zero_page_range().
However that function gets called from truncate path and thus inode
needn't have jinode attached - that happens in ext4_file_open() but
the file needn't be ever open since mount. Calling
jbd2_journal_file_inode() without jinode attached results in the oops.
We fix the problem by attaching jinode to inode also in ext4_truncate()
and ext4_punch_hole() when we are going to zero out partial blocks.
