Subject: [PATCH 0/3] eventfd: clean up unneeded cruft

This series removes some cruft (mainly exported functions) from
fs/eventfd.c which seems to have been added while the KVM irqfd feature
was under development some years ago, but was never actually used.

Eric Biggers (3):
  eventfd: convert to use anon_inode_getfd()
  eventfd: fold eventfd_ctx_read() into eventfd_read()
  eventfd: fold eventfd_ctx_get() into eventfd_ctx_fileget()
