dget(dentry->d_parent) --> dget_parent(dentry)
unlock_parent() is racy and unnecessary. Replace single caller with
unlock_dir().
There are several other suspect uses of ->d_parent in ecryptfs...

Make eCryptfs key module subsystem respect namespaces.
Since I will be removing the netlink interface in a future patch, I just made
changes to the netlink.c code so that it will not break the build. With my
recent patches, the kernel module currently defaults to the device handle
interface rather than the netlink interface.

Update the versioning information. Make the message types generic. Add an
outgoing message queue to the daemon struct. Make the functions to parse
and write the packet lengths available to the rest of the module. Add
functions to create and destroy the daemon structs. Clean up some of the
comments and make the code a little more consistent with itself.

A regular device file was my real preference from the get-go, but I went with
netlink at the time because I thought it would be less complex for managing
send queues (i.e., just do a unicast and move on). It turns out that we do
not really get that much complexity reduction with netlink, and netlink is
more heavyweight than a device handle.
In addition, the netlink interface to eCryptfs has been broken since 2.6.24.
I am assuming this is a bug in how eCryptfs uses netlink, since the other
in-kernel users of netlink do not seem to be having any problems. I have had
one report of a user successfully using eCryptfs with netlink on 2.6.24, but
for my own systems, when starting the userspace daemon, the initial helo
message sent to the eCryptfs kernel module results in an oops right off the
bat. I spent some time looking at it, but I have not yet found the cause.
The netlink interface breaking gave me the motivation to just finish my patch
to migrate to a regular device handle. If I cannot find out soon why the
netlink interface in eCryptfs broke, I am likely to just send a patch to
disable it in 2.6.24 and 2.6.25. I would like the device handle to be the
preferred means of communicating with the userspace daemon from 2.6.26 on
forward.
This patch:
Functions to facilitate reading and writing to the eCryptfs miscellaneous
device handle. This will replace the netlink interface as the preferred
mechanism for communicating with the userspace eCryptfs daemon.
Each user has his own daemon, which registers itself by opening the eCryptfs
device handle. Only one daemon per euid may be registered at any given time.
The eCryptfs module sends a message to a daemon by adding its message to the
daemon's outgoing message queue. The daemon reads the device handle to get
the oldest message off the queue.
Incoming messages from the userspace daemon are immediately handled. If the
message is a response, then the corresponding process that is blocked waiting
for the response is awakened.

When the page is not up to date, ecryptfs_prepare_write() should be
acting much like ecryptfs_readpage(). This includes the painfully
obvious step of actually decrypting the page contents read from the
lower encrypted file.
Note that this patch resolves a bug in eCryptfs in 2.6.24 that one can
produce with these steps:
# mount -t ecryptfs /secret /secret
# echo "abc" > /secret/file.txt
# umount /secret
# mount -t ecryptfs /secret /secret
# echo "def" >> /secret/file.txt
# cat /secret/file.txt
Without this patch, the resulting data returned from cat is likely to
be something other than "abc\ndef\n".

This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.
Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
<dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

Jeff Moyer pointed out that a mount; umount loop of ecryptfs, with the same
cipher & other mount options, created a new ecryptfs_key_tfm_cache item
each time, and the cache could grow quite large this way.
Looking at this with mhalcrow, we saw that ecryptfs_parse_options()
unconditionally called ecryptfs_add_new_key_tfm(), which is what was adding
these items.
Refactor ecryptfs_get_tfm_and_mutex_for_cipher_name() to create a new
helper function, ecryptfs_tfm_exists(), which checks for the cipher on the
cached key_tfm_list, and sets a pointer to it if it exists. This can then
be called from ecryptfs_parse_options(), and new key_tfm's can be added
only when a cached one is not found.
With list locking changes suggested by akpm.

ecryptfs_debug really should not be a mount option; it is not per-mount,
but rather sets a global "ecryptfs_verbosity" variable which affects all
mounted filesysytems. It's already settable as a module load option,
I think we can leave it at that.
Also, if set, since secret values come out in debug messages, kick
things off with a stern warning.

Change ecryptfs_show_options to reflect the actual mount options in use.
Note that this does away with the "dir=" output, which is not a valid mount
option and appears to be unused.
Mount options such as "ecryptfs_verbose" and "ecryptfs_xattr_metadata" are
somewhat indeterminate for a given fs, but in any case the reported mount
options can be used in a new mount command to get the same behavior.

Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions
zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2)
Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to
start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and
makes code clearer.
zero_user_segment(page, start, end)
Same for a single segment.
zero_user(page, start, length)
Length variant for the case where we know the length.
We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues:
1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable.
2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM.
Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the
code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always
KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code.
Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing
with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with
kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those
configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other
functions defined in highmem.h.
Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page
function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced
here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these
functions are called.
Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.
