Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull vfs fixes from Al Viro:
"atomic_open-related fixes (Miklos' series, with EEXIST-related parts
replaced with fix in fs/namei.c:atomic_open() instead of messing with
the instances) + race fix in autofs + leak on failure exit in 9p"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
9p: don't forget to destroy inode cache if fscache registration fails
atomic_open: take care of EEXIST in no-open case with O_CREAT|O_EXCL in fs/namei.c
vfs: don't set FILE_CREATED before calling ->atomic_open()
nfs: set FILE_CREATED
gfs2: set FILE_CREATED
cifs: fix filp leak in cifs_atomic_open()
vfs: improve i_op->atomic_open() documentation
autofs4: close the races around autofs4_notify_daemon()
