Subject: [PATCH 1/3] revoke: misc fixes

From: Pekka Enberg <penberg@...helsinki.fi>

This is a rollup patch of the following fixes to address some of Andrew's
review comments:

  - Fix return value type of system calls to long
  - No need for GFP_NOFS for inode allocation, use GFP_KERNEL instead
  - Remove unnecessary line break before EXPORT_SYMBOL

Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@...helsinki.fi>
