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

Pull VFS updates from Al Viro,

Misc cleanups all over the place, mainly wrt /proc interfaces (switch
create_proc_entry to proc_create(), get rid of the deprecated
create_proc_read_entry() in favor of using proc_create_data() and
seq_file etc).

7kloc removed.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (204 commits)
  don't bother with deferred freeing of fdtables
  proc: Move non-public stuff from linux/proc_fs.h to fs/proc/internal.h
  proc: Make the PROC_I() and PDE() macros internal to procfs
  proc: Supply a function to remove a proc entry by PDE
  take cgroup_open() and cpuset_open() to fs/proc/base.c
  ppc: Clean up scanlog
  ppc: Clean up rtas_flash driver somewhat
  hostap: proc: Use remove_proc_subtree()
  drm: proc: Use remove_proc_subtree()
  drm: proc: Use minor->index to label things, not PDE->name
  drm: Constify drm_proc_list[]
  zoran: Don't print proc_dir_entry data in debug
  reiserfs: Don't access the proc_dir_entry in r_open(), r_start() r_show()
  proc: Supply an accessor for getting the data from a PDE's parent
  airo: Use remove_proc_subtree()
  rtl8192u: Don't need to save device proc dir PDE
  rtl8187se: Use a dir under /proc/net/r8180/
  proc: Add proc_mkdir_data()
  proc: Move some bits from linux/proc_fs.h to linux/{of.h,signal.h,tty.h}
  proc: Move PDE_NET() to fs/proc/proc_net.c
