925c86a19b fs: add CONFIG_BUFFER_HEAD
Add a new config option that controls building the buffer_head code, and
select it from all file systems and stacking drivers that need it.

For the block device nodes and alternative iomap based buffered I/O path
is provided when buffer_head support is not enabled, and iomap needs a
a small tweak to define the IOMAP_F_BUFFER_HEAD flag to 0 to not call
into the buffer_head code when it doesn't exist.

Otherwise this is just Kconfig and ifdef changes.

bda2795a63 fs: remove the special !CONFIG_BLOCK def_blk_fops
def_blk_fops always returns -ENODEV, which dosn't match the return value
of a non-existing block device with CONFIG_BLOCK, which is -ENXIO.
Just remove the extra implementation and fall back to the default
no_open_fops that always returns -ENXIO.

e3184de9d4 fs: fix sysctls.c built
'obj-$(CONFIG_SYSCTL) += sysctls.o' must be moved after "obj-y :=",
or it won't be built as it is overwrited.

Note that there is nothing that is going to break by linking
sysctl.o later, we were just being way to cautious and patches
have been updated to reflect these considerations and sent for
stable as well with the whole "base" stuff needing to be linked
prior to child sysctl tables that use that directory. All of
the kernel sysctl APIs always share the same directory, and races
against using it should end up re-using the same single created
directory.

And so something we can do eventually is do away with all the base stuff.
For now it's fine, it's not creating an issue. It is just a bit pedantic
and careful.

3707d84c13 fs: move mnt_idmap
Now that we converted everything to just rely on struct mnt_idmap move it all
into a separate file. This ensure that no code can poke around in struct
mnt_idmap without any dedicated helpers and makes it easier to extend it in the
future. Filesystems will now not be able to conflate mount and filesystem
idmappings as they are two distinct types and require distinct helpers that
cannot be used interchangeably. We are now also able to extend struct mnt_idmap
as we see fit.

ab171b952c fs: move namespace sysctls and declare fs base directory
This moves the namespace sysctls to its own file as part of the
kernel/sysctl.c spring cleaning

Since we have now removed all sysctls for "fs", we now have to declare
it on the filesystem code, we do that using the new helper, which
reduces boiler plate code.

We rename init_fs_shared_sysctls() to init_fs_sysctls() to reflect that
now fs/sysctls.c is taking on the burden of being the first to register
the base directory as well.

Lastly, since init code will load in the order in which we link it we
have to move the sysctl code to be linked in early, so that its early
init routine runs prior to other fs code.  This way, other filesystem
code can register their own sysctls using the helpers after this:

  * register_sysctl_init()
  * register_sysctl()

23e91d8b7c cifs: rename cifs_common to smbfs_common
As we move to common code between client and server, we have
been asked to make the names less confusing, and refer less
to "cifs" and more to words which include "smb" instead to
e.g. "smbfs" for the client (we already have "ksmbd" for the
kernel server, and "smbd" for the user space Samba daemon).
So to be more consistent in the naming of common code between
client and server and reduce the risk of merge conflicts as
more common code is added - rename "cifs_common" to
"smbfs_common" (in future releases we also will rename
the fs/cifs directory to fs/smbfs)

Pull initial ksmbd implementation from Steve French:
 "Initial merge of kernel smb3 file server, ksmbd.

  The SMB family of protocols is the most widely deployed network
  filesystem protocol, the default on Windows and Macs (and even on many
  phones and tablets), with clients and servers on all major operating
  systems, but lacked a kernel server for Linux. For many cases the
  current userspace server choices were suboptimal either due to memory
  footprint, performance or difficulty integrating well with advanced
  Linux features.

  ksmbd is a new kernel module which implements the server-side of the
  SMB3 protocol. The target is to provide optimized performance, GPLv2
  SMB server, and better lease handling (distributed caching). The
  bigger goal is to add new features more rapidly (e.g. RDMA aka
  "smbdirect", and recent encryption and signing improvements to the
  protocol) which are easier to develop on a smaller, more tightly
  optimized kernel server than for example in Samba.

  The Samba project is much broader in scope (tools, security services,
  LDAP, Active Directory Domain Controller, and a cross platform file
  server for a wider variety of purposes) but the user space file server
  portion of Samba has proved hard to optimize for some Linux workloads,
  including for smaller devices.

  This is not meant to replace Samba, but rather be an extension to
  allow better optimizing for Linux, and will continue to integrate well
  with Samba user space tools and libraries where appropriate. Working
  with the Samba team we have already made sure that the configuration
  files and xattrs are in a compatible format between the kernel and
  user space server.

  Various types of functional and regression tests are regularly run
  against it. One example is the automated 'buildbot' regression tests
  which use the Linux client to test against ksmbd, e.g.

     http://smb3-test-rhel-75.southcentralus.cloudapp.azure.com/#/builders/8/builds/56

  but other test suites, including Samba's smbtorture functional test
  suite are also used regularly"

71c0286324 cifs: fork arc4 and create a separate module for it for cifs and other users
We can not drop ARC4 and basically destroy CIFS connectivity for
almost all CIFS users so create a new forked ARC4 module that CIFS and other
subsystems that have a hard dependency on ARC4 can use.
