Subject: [git pull] more vfs/fs patches

Dan's fix for ubifs breakage + removal of a bunch of really dumb
detritus from ->permission() instances + fix for long-standing
stupidity in devcgroups_inode_permission() (the thing is a
no-op for non-devices and that check definitely ought to be
taken to inline wrapper).  Please, pull from the usual place
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6.git/ #for-linus

Shortlog:

Al Viro (11):
      bad_inode_permission() is safe from RCU mode
      cifs_permission() doesn't need to bail out in RCU mode
      coda_ioctl_permission() is safe in RCU mode
      logfs doesn't need ->permission() at all
      nilfs2_permission() doesn't need to bail out in RCU mode
      proc_fd_permission() is doesn't need to bail out in RCU mode
      reiserfs_permission() doesn't need to bail out in RCU mode
      proc_sys_permission() is OK in RCU mode
      kill obsolete comment for follow_down()
      fix comment in generic_permission()
      devcgroup_inode_permission: take "is it a device node" checks to inlined wrapper
