Merge branch 'PAGE_CACHE_SIZE-removal'

Merge PAGE_CACHE_SIZE removal patches from Kirill Shutemov:
"PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.

The first patch with most changes has been done with coccinelle. The
second is manual fixups on top.

The third patch removes macros definition"

[ I was planning to apply this just before rc2, but then I spaced out,
so here it is right _after_ rc2 instead.

As Kirill suggested as a possibility, I could have decided to only
merge the first two patches, and leave the old interfaces for
compatibility, but I'd rather get it all done and any out-of-tree
modules and patches can trivially do the converstion while still also
working with older kernels, so there is little reason to try to
maintain the redundant legacy model. - Linus ]

* PAGE_CACHE_SIZE-removal:
mm: drop PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} definition
mm, fs: remove remaining PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} usage
mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

- page_cache_get() -> get_page();

- page_cache_release() -> put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Backmerge fixes since it's getting out of hand again with the massive
split due to atomic between -next and 4.2-rc. All the bugfixes in
4.2-rc are addressed already (by converting more towards atomic

for the conflicts in modeset code.

All the other conflicts are just adjacent lines changed.

Merge branch 'for-linus-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:
"In this pile: pathname resolution rewrite.

- recursion in link_path_walk() is gone.

- nesting limits on symlinks are gone (the only limit remaining is
that the total amount of symlinks is no more than 40, no matter how
nested).

- "fast" (inline) symlinks are handled without leaving rcuwalk mode.

- stack footprint (independent of the nesting) is below kilobyte now,
about on par with what it used to be with one level of nested
symlinks and ~2.8 times lower than it used to be in the worst case.

- struct nameidata is entirely private to fs/namei.c now (not even
opaque pointers are being passed around).

- ->follow_link() and ->put_link() calling conventions had been
changed; all in-tree filesystems converted, out-of-tree should be
able to follow reasonably easily.

For out-of-tree conversions, see Documentation/filesystems/porting
for details (and in-tree filesystems for examples of conversion).

That has sat in -next since mid-May, seems to survive all testing
without regressions and merges clean with v4.1"
