Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the vfs tree with Linus' tree

Hi Al,

Today's linux-next merge of the vfs tree got a conflict in fs/coredump.c
between commit acdedd99b0f3 ("coredump: sanitize the setting of
signal->group_exit_code") from Linus' tree and commit 03d95eb2f257 ("lift
sb_start_write() out of ->write()") from the vfs tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary (no action
is required).

Cheers,
