The FMODE_NONOTIFY_* bits are a 2-bits mode. Open coding manipulation
of those bits is risky. Use an accessor file_set_fsnotify_mode() to
set the mode.
Rename file_set_fsnotify_mode() => file_set_fsnotify_mode_from_watchers()
to make way for the simple accessor name.

Pull fsnotify pre-content notification support from Jan Kara:
"This introduces a new fsnotify event (FS_PRE_ACCESS) that gets
generated before a file contents is accessed.
The event is synchronous so if there is listener for this event, the
kernel waits for reply. On success the execution continues as usual,
on failure we propagate the error to userspace. This allows userspace
to fill in file content on demand from slow storage. The context in
which the events are generated has been picked so that we don't hold
any locks and thus there's no risk of a deadlock for the userspace
handler.
The new pre-content event is available only for users with global
CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability (similarly to other parts of fanotify
functionality) and it is an administrator responsibility to make sure
the userspace event handler doesn't do stupid stuff that can DoS the
system.
Based on your feedback from the last submission, fsnotify code has
been improved and now file->f_mode encodes whether pre-content event
needs to be generated for the file so the fast path when nobody wants
pre-content event for the file just grows the additional file->f_mode
check. As a bonus this also removes the checks whether the old
FS_ACCESS event needs to be generated from the fast path. Also the
place where the event is generated during page fault has been moved so
now filemap_fault() generates the event if and only if there is no
uptodate folio in the page cache.
Also we have dropped FS_PRE_MODIFY event as current real-world users
of the pre-content functionality don't really use it so let's start
with the minimal useful feature set"

Move the security hooks also before sb_start_write() to conform with
other security hooks (e.g. in write, fallocate).
The event will have a range info of the page surrounding the new size
to provide an opportunity to fill the conetnt at the end of file before
truncating to non-page aligned size.

Legacy inotify/fanotify listeners can add watches for events on inode,
parent or mount and expect to get events (e.g. FS_MODIFY) on files that
were already open at the time of setting up the watches.
fanotify permission events are typically used by Anti-malware sofware,
that is watching the entire mount and it is not common to have more that
one Anti-malware engine installed on a system.
To reduce the overhead of the fsnotify_file_perm() hooks on every file
access, relax the semantics of the legacy FAN_ACCESS_PERM event to generate
events only if there were *any* permission event listeners on the
filesystem at the time that the file was opened.
The new semantic is implemented by extending the FMODE_NONOTIFY bit into
two FMODE_NONOTIFY_* bits, that are used to store a mode for which of the
events types to report.
This is going to apply to the new fanotify pre-content events in order
to reduce the cost of the new pre-content event vfs hooks.

Pull vfs file updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains changes the changes for files for this cycle:
- Introduce a new reference counting mechanism for files.
As atomic_inc_not_zero() is implemented with a try_cmpxchg() loop
it has O(N^2) behaviour under contention with N concurrent
operations and it is in a hot path in __fget_files_rcu().
The rcuref infrastructures remedies this problem by using an
unconditional increment relying on safe- and dead zones to make
this work and requiring rcu protection for the data structure in
question. This not just scales better it also introduces overflow
protection.
However, in contrast to generic rcuref, files require a memory
barrier and thus cannot rely on *_relaxed() atomic operations and
also require to be built on atomic_long_t as having massive amounts
of reference isn't unheard of even if it is just an attack.
This adds a file specific variant instead of making this a generic
library.
This has been tested by various people and it gives consistent
improvement up to 3-5% on workloads with loads of threads.
- Add a fastpath for find_next_zero_bit(). Skip 2-levels searching
via find_next_zero_bit() when there is a free slot in the word that
contains the next fd. This improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read by 8%
and write by 4% on Intel ICX 160.
- Conditionally clear full_fds_bits since it's very likely that a bit
in full_fds_bits has been cleared during __clear_open_fds(). This
improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read up to 13%, and write up to 5% on
Intel ICX 160.
- Get rid of all lookup_*_fdget_rcu() variants. They were used to
lookup files without taking a reference count. That became invalid
once files were switched to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and now we're
always taking a reference count. Switch to an already existing
helper and remove the legacy variants.
- Remove pointless includes of <linux/fdtable.h>.
- Avoid cmpxchg() in close_files() as nobody else has a reference to
the files_struct at that point.
- Move close_range() into fs/file.c and fold __close_range() into it.
- Cleanup calling conventions of alloc_fdtable() and expand_files().
- Merge __{set,clear}_close_on_exec() into one.
- Make __set_open_fd() set cloexec as well instead of doing it in two
separate steps"

For any changes of struct fd representation we need to
turn existing accesses to fields into calls of wrappers.
Accesses to struct fd::flags are very few (3 in linux/file.h,
1 in net/socket.c, 3 in fs/overlayfs/file.c and 3 more in
explicit initializers).
Those can be dealt with in the commit converting to
new layout; accesses to struct fd::file are too many for that.
This commit converts (almost) all of f.file to
fd_file(f). It's not entirely mechanical ('file' is used as
a member name more than just in struct fd) and it does not
even attempt to distinguish the uses in pointer context from
those in boolean context; the latter will be eventually turned
into a separate helper (fd_empty()).
NOTE: mass conversion to fd_empty(), tempting as it
might be, is a bad idea; better do that piecewise in commit
that convert from fdget...() to CLASS(...).
