Originally we used the term "encrypted name" or "ciphertext name" to
mean the encoded filename that is shown when an encrypted directory is
listed without its key. But these terms are ambiguous since they also
mean the filename stored on-disk. "Encrypted name" is especially
ambiguous since it could also be understood to mean "this filename is
encrypted on-disk", similar to "encrypted file".
So we've started calling these encoded names "no-key names" instead.
Therefore, rename DCACHE_ENCRYPTED_NAME to DCACHE_NOKEY_NAME to avoid
confusion about what this flag means.

A sequence counter write side critical section must be protected by some
form of locking to serialize writers. A plain seqcount_t does not
contain the information of which lock must be held when entering a write
side critical section.
Use the new seqcount_spinlock_t data type, which allows to associate a
spinlock with the sequence counter. This enables lockdep to verify that
the spinlock used for writer serialization is held when the write side
critical section is entered.
If lockdep is disabled this lock association is compiled out and has
neither storage size nor runtime overhead.

DCACHE_DONTCACHE indicates a dentry should not be cached on final
dput().
Also add a helper function to mark DCACHE_DONTCACHE on all dentries
pointing to a specific inode when that inode is being set I_DONTCACHE.
This facilitates dropping dentry references to inodes sooner which
require eviction to swap S_DAX mode.

There are 4 callers; two proceed to check if result is positive and
fail with ENOENT if it isn't; one (in handle_lookup_down()) is
guaranteed to yield positive and one (in lookup_fast()) is _preceded_
by positivity check.
However, follow_managed() on a negative dentry is a (fairly cheap)
no-op on anything other than autofs. And negative autofs dentries
are never hashed, so lookup_fast() is not going to run into one
of those. Moreover, successful follow_managed() on a _positive_
dentry never yields a negative one (and we significantly rely upon
that in callers of lookup_fast()).
In other words, we can easily transpose the positivity check and
the call of follow_managed() in lookup_fast(). And that allows
to fold the positivity check *into* follow_managed(), simplifying
life for the code downstream of its calls.

"Clean up fscrypt's dcache revalidation support, and other
miscellaneous cleanups"
* tag 'fscrypt_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/fscrypt/fscrypt:
fscrypt: cache decrypted symlink target in ->i_link
vfs: use READ_ONCE() to access ->i_link
fscrypt: fix race where ->lookup() marks plaintext dentry as ciphertext
fscrypt: only set dentry_operations on ciphertext dentries

fscrypt: use READ_ONCE() to access ->i_crypt_info
fscrypt: remove WARN_ON_ONCE() when decryption fails
fscrypt: drop inode argument from fscrypt_get_ctx()
Make various improvements to fscrypt dentry revalidation:
- Don't try to handle the case where the per-directory key is removed,
as this can't happen without the inode (and dentries) being evicted.
- Flag ciphertext dentries rather than plaintext dentries, since it's
ciphertext dentries that need the special handling.
- Avoid doing unnecessary work for non-ciphertext dentries.
- When revalidating ciphertext dentries, try to set up the directory's
i_crypt_info to make sure the key is really still absent, rather than
invalidating all negative dentries as the previous code did. An old
comment suggested we can't do this for locking reasons, but AFAICT
this comment was outdated and it actually works fine.

For lockless accesses to dentries we don't have pinned we rely
(among other things) upon having an RCU delay between dropping
the last reference and actually freeing the memory.
On the other hand, for things like pipes and sockets we neither
do that kind of lockless access, nor want to deal with the
overhead of an RCU delay every time a socket gets closed.
So delay was made optional - setting DCACHE_RCUACCESS in ->d_flags
made sure it would happen. We tried to avoid setting it unless
we knew we need it. Unfortunately, that had led to recurring
class of bugs, in which we missed the need to set it.
We only really need it for dentries that are created by
d_alloc_pseudo(), so let's not bother with trying to be smart -
just make having an RCU delay the default. The ones that do
*not* get it set the replacement flag (DCACHE_NORCU) and we'd
better use that sparingly. d_alloc_pseudo() is the only
such user right now.
FWIW, the race that finally prompted that switch had been
between __lock_parent() of immediate subdirectory of what's
currently the root of a disconnected tree (e.g. from
open-by-handle in progress) racing with d_splice_alias()
elsewhere picking another alias for the same inode, either
on outright corrupted fs image, or (in case of open-by-handle
on NFS) that subdirectory having been just moved on server.
It's not easy to hit, so the sky is not falling, but that's
not the first race on similar missed cases and the logics
for settinf DCACHE_RCUACCESS has gotten ridiculously
convoluted.

The current dentry number tracking code doesn't distinguish between
positive & negative dentries. It just reports the total number of
dentries in the LRU lists.
As excessive number of negative dentries can have an impact on system
performance, it will be wise to track the number of positive and
negative dentries separately.
This patch adds tracking for the total number of negative dentries in
the system LRU lists and reports it in the 5th field in the
/proc/sys/fs/dentry-state file. The number, however, does not include
negative dentries that are in flight but not in the LRU yet as well as
those in the shrinker lists which are on the way out anyway.
The number of positive dentries in the LRU lists can be roughly found by
subtracting the number of negative dentries from the unused count.
Matthew Wilcox had confirmed that since the introduction of the
dentry_stat structure in 2.1.60, the dummy array was there, probably for
future extension. They were not replacements of pre-existing fields.
So no sane applications that read the value of /proc/sys/fs/dentry-state
will do dummy thing if the last 2 fields of the sysctl parameter are not
zero. IOW, it will be safe to use one of the dummy array entry for
negative dentry count.

The same solution applies - unhash the mkdir argument, then
call d_splice_alias() and if that returns a reference to preexisting
alias, dput() and report success. ->mkdir() argument left unhashed
negative with the preexisting alias moved in the right place is just
fine from the ->mkdir() callers point of view.

For anything NFS-exported we do _not_ want to unlock new inode
before it has grown an alias; original set of fixes got the
ordering right, but missed the nasty complication in case of
lockdep being enabled - unlock_new_inode() does
lockdep_annotate_inode_mutex_key(inode)
which can only be done before anyone gets a chance to touch
->i_mutex. Unfortunately, flipping the order and doing
unlock_new_inode() before d_instantiate() opens a window when
mkdir can race with open-by-fhandle on a guessed fhandle, leading
to multiple aliases for a directory inode and all the breakage
that follows from that.
Correct solution: a new primitive (d_instantiate_new())
combining these two in the right order - lockdep annotate, then
d_instantiate(), then the rest of unlock_new_inode(). All
combinations of d_instantiate() with unlock_new_inode() should
be converted to that.
