hfsplus: create correct initial catalog entries for device files

Make sure the initial insertation of the catalog entry already contains
the device number by calling init_special_inode early and setting writing
out the dev field of the on-disk permission structure. The latter is
facilitated by sharing the almost identical hfsplus_set_perms helpers
between initial catalog entry creating and ->write_inode.

Unless we crashed just after mknod this bug was harmless as the inode
is marked dirty at the end of hfsplus_mknod, and hfsplus_write_inode
will update the catalog entry to contain the correct value.

hfsplus: fix link corruption

HFS implements hardlink by using indirect catalog entries that refer to a hidden
directly. The link target is cached in the dev field in the HFS+ specific
inode, which is also used for the device number for device files, and inside
for passing the nlink value of the indirect node from hfsplus_cat_write_inode
to a helper function. Now if we happen to write out the indirect node while
hfsplus_link is creating the catalog entry we'll get a link pointing to the
linkid of the current nlink value. This can easily be reproduced by a large
enough loop of local git-clone operations.

Stop abusing the dev field in the HFS+ inode for short term storage by
refactoring the way the permission structure in the catalog entry is
set up, and rename the dev field to linkid to avoid any confusion.

While we're at it also prevent creating hard links to special files, as
the HFS+ dev and linkid share the same space in the on-disk structure.

When renaming over a directory we need to use hfsplus_rmdir instead of

on non-empty directory as required by Posix (BZ #16571), and it also makes
sure we do the right thing in case i_nlink will every be set correctly for
directories on hfsplus.

[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

We're shortly going to have keep filesystems from being remounted r/o between
the time that this i_nlink decrement and that write occurs.

So, add a little helper function to do the decrements. We'll tie into it in a
bit to note when i_nlink hits zero.
