  • nfsacl_encode() allocates memory in certain cases. This of course
    is not guaranteed to work.

    Since commit 9f06c719 "SUNRPC: New xdr_streams XDR encoder API", the
    kernel's XDR encoders can't return a result indicating possibly a
    failure, so a memory allocation failure in nfsacl_encode() has become
    fatal (ie, the XDR code Oopses) in some cases.

    However, the allocated memory is a tiny fixed amount, on the order
    of 40-50 bytes. We can easily use a stack-allocated buffer for
    this, with only a wee bit of nose-holding.

  • Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from
    the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds.

    Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().

    Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id(). In some places it makes more
    sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be
    addressed by later patches.

  • - added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t;

    - replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly
    the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change
    generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with
    typedef) and documents what's going on far better.

  • 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!
