Pull quota, ext2, isofs and udf fixes from Jan Kara:
- two small quota error handling fixes
- two isofs fixes for architectures with signed char
- several udf block number overflow and signedness fixes
- ext2 rework of mount option handling to avoid GFP_KERNEL allocation
with spinlock held- ... it also contains a patch to implement auditing of responses to
fanotify permission events. That should have been in the fanotify
pull request but I mistakenly merged that patch into a wrong branch
and noticed only now at which point I don't think it's worth rebasing
and redoing.* 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs:
quota: be aware of error from dquot_initialize
quota: fix potential infinite loop
isofs: use unsigned char types consistently
isofs: fix timestamps beyond 2027
udf: Fix some sign-conversion warnings
udf: Fix signed/unsigned format specifiers
udf: Fix 64-bit sign extension issues affecting blocks > 0x7FFFFFFF
udf: Remove some outdate references from documentation
udf: Avoid overflow when session starts at large offset
ext2: Fix possible sleep in atomic during mount option parsing
ext2: Parse mount options into a dedicated structure
audit: Record fanotify access control decisions

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if

Based on the discussion about the signed character field for the year,
I went through all fields in the iso9660 and rockridge standards to see
whether they should used signed or unsigned characters. Only a single
8-bit value is defined as signed per 'section 7.1.2': the timezone
offset in a timestamp, this has always been handled correctly through
explicit sign-extension.All others are either '7.1.1 8-bit unsigned numerical values' or
composite fields. I also read the linux source code and came to the
same conclusion, also I could not find any other part of the
implementation that actually behaves differently for signed or
unsigned values.Since it is still ambigous to use plain 'char' in interface definitions,
I'm changing all fields representing numbers and reserved bytes to
the unambiguous '__u8'. Fields that hold actual strings are left as
'char' arrays. I built the code with '-Wpointer-sign -Wsign-compare'
to see if anything got left out, but couldn't find anything wrong
with the remaining warnings.This patch should not change runtime behavior and does not need to
be backported.Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

isofs uses a 'char' variable to load the number of years since
1900 for an inode timestamp. On architectures that use a signed
char type by default, this results in an invalid date for
anything beyond 2027.This changes the function argument to a 'u8' array, which
is defined the same way on all architectures, and unambiguously
lets us use years until 2155.This should be backported to all kernels that might still be
in use by that date.Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org

The silly thing does:
struct foo { ... };
...
#define foo 42so you can no longer refer to `struct foo' in C code.
Rename the structures.

So we have a couple of rock-ridge bugs. First up, rotoroot the poor thing
into something which it is possible to work on.Feed rock.h through Lindent, tidy a couple of things by hand.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.Let it rip!
