Subject: [GIT PULL] xfs: fixes for 3.15-rc6

Hi Linus,

Can you please pull the updates listed below? I found a bunch of
error sign issues while determine what we need to do to rid XFS of
this problem permanently. A couple of the bugs are in data integirty
operations, a couple more are in the new COLLAPSE_RANGE code. One of
these came in through a recent ext4 merge and so I had to update the
base tree to 3.15-rc5 before fixing the issues.

-Dave.

xfs: fixes for 3.15-rc6

Code inspection of the XFS error number sign translations found a bunch of
issues, including returning incorrectly signed errors for some data integrity
operations. These leak to userspace and result in applications not getting the
errors correctly reported. Hence they need fixing sooner rather than later.
