[PATCH 0/7] FS-Cache: Miscellaneous fixes

[David Howells]

Hi Linus,

Can you pull these fixes for fscache and cachefiles?

 (1) Fix an assertion failure at fs/cachefiles/xattr.c:138 caused by a race
     between a cache object lookup failing and someone attempting to
     reenable that object, thereby triggering an update of the object's
     attributes.

 (2) Fix an assertion failure at fs/fscache/operation.c:449 caused by a
     split atomic subtract and atomic read that allows a race to happen.

 (3) Fix a leak of backing pages when simultaneously reading the same page
     from the same object from two or more threads.

 (4) Fix a hang due to a race between a cache object being discarded and
     the corresponding cookie being reenabled.

There are also some minor stuff.  Do you want me to punt these to the next
merge window instead?

 (5) Cast an enum value to a different enum type to prevent clang from
     generating a warning.  This shouldn't cause any sort of change in the
     emitted code.

 (6) Use ktime_get_real_seconds() instead of get_seconds().  This is just
     used to uniquify a filename for an object to be placed in the
     graveyard.  Objects placed there are deleted by cachfilesd in
     userspace immediately thereafter.

 (7) Remove an initialised, but otherwise unused variable.  This should
     have been entirely optimised away anyway.

The patches are tagged here:

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs.git
	fscache-fixes-20181130

and can also be found on the following branch:

Thanks,
David
