Subject: [PATCH 00/14] AFS: Fixes and cleanups


Hi Al,

Here are some fixes to the AFS filesystem, including:

 (1) Refcount errors.

 (2) Showing the GID from the server in stat.

 (3) Fix handling of AFS mode bits (which don't work quite the same way as
     Linux mode bits).

 (4) Handle a callback where the FID array and the callback array arguments
     are not populated with the same number of entries (the callback array
     may be empty).

 (5) Better handle FS.FetchData{,64} returning more or less data than
     requested (usually because the EOF pointer shifted).

 (6) Make afs_write_end() handle a short write to a page (ie. EFAULT).

 (7) Flush outstanding writes on closing a file to be consistent with NFS,
     CIFS and other AFS clients.

 (8) Mountpoints (which appear as special symlinks with mode 0644) can be
     differentiated from real symlinks (with mode 0777) can be
     distinguished on mode alone and so we shouldn't try parsing the
     symlink.

 (9) RCU initialisation fixes.

(10) Internal time field 64-bit-isation.
