Pull AFS fixes from David Howells:
 "Fixes for AFS problems that can cause data corruption due to
  interaction with another client modifying data cached locally:

   - When d_revalidating a dentry, don't look at the inode to which it
     points. Only check the directory to which the dentry belongs. This
     was confusing things and causing the silly-rename cleanup code to
     remove the file now at the dentry of a file that got deleted.

   - Fix mmap data coherency. When a callback break is received that
     relates to a file that we have cached, the data content may have
     been changed (there are other reasons, such as the user's rights
     having been changed). However, we're checking it lazily, only on
     entry to the kernel, which doesn't happen if we have a writeable
     shared mapped page on that file.

     We make the kernel keep track of mmapped files and clear all PTEs
     mapping to that file as soon as the callback comes in by calling
     unmap_mapping_pages() (we don't necessarily want to zap the
     pagecache). This causes the kernel to be reentered when userspace
     tries to access the mmapped address range again - and at that point
     we can query the server and, if we need to, zap the page cache.

     Ideally, I would check each file at the point of notification, but
     that involves poking the server[*] - which is holding an exclusive
     lock on the vnode it is changing, waiting for all the clients it
     notified to reply. This could then deadlock against the server.
     Further, invalidating the pagecache might call ->launder_page(),
     which would try to write to the file, which would definitely
     deadlock. (AFS doesn't lease file access).

     [*] Checking to see if the file content has changed is a matter of
         comparing the current data version number, but we have to ask
         the server for that. We also need to get a new callback promise
         and we need to poke the server for that too.

   - Add some more points at which the inode is validated, since we're
     doing it lazily, notably in ->read_iter() and ->page_mkwrite(), but
     also when performing some directory operations.

     Ideally, checking in ->read_iter() would be done in some derivation
     of filemap_read(). If we're going to call the server to read the
     file, then we get the file status fetch as part of that.

   - The above is now causing us to make a lot more calls to
     afs_validate() to check the inode - and afs_validate() takes the
     RCU read lock each time to make a quick check (ie.
     afs_check_validity()). This is entirely for the purpose of checking
     cb_s_break to see if the server we're using reinitialised its list
     of callbacks - however this isn't a very common event, so most of
     the time we're taking this needlessly.

     Add a new cell-wide counter to count the number of
     reinitialisations done by any server and check that - and only if
     that changes, take the RCU read lock and check the server list (the
     server list may change, but the cell a file is part of won't).

   - Don't update vnode->cb_s_break and ->cb_v_break inside the validity
     checking loop. The cb_lock is done with read_seqretry, so we might
     go round the loop a second time after resetting those values - and
     that could cause someone else checking validity to miss something
     (I think).

  Also included are patches for fixes for some bugs encountered whilst
  debugging this:

   - Fix a leak of afs_read objects and fix a leak of keys hidden by
     that.

   - Fix a leak of pages that couldn't be added to extend a writeback.

   - Fix the maintenance of i_blocks when i_size is changed by a local
     write or a local dir edit"
