Merge branch 'for-linus-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull vfs update from Al Viro:

 - misc stable fixes

 - trivial kernel-doc and comment fixups

 - remove never-used block_page_mkwrite() wrapper function, and rename
   the function that is _actually_ used to not have double underscores.

* 'for-linus-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  fs: 9p: cache.h: Add #define of include guard
  vfs: remove stale comment in inode_operations
  vfs: remove unused wrapper block_page_mkwrite()
  binfmt_elf: Correct `arch_check_elf's description
  fs: fix writeback.c kernel-doc warnings
  fs: fix inode.c kernel-doc warning
  fs/pipe.c: return error code rather than 0 in pipe_write()
  fs/pipe.c: preserve alloc_file() error code
  binfmt_elf: Don't clobber passed executable's file header
  FS-Cache: Handle a write to the page immediately beyond the EOF marker
  cachefiles: perform test on s_blocksize when opening cache file.
  FS-Cache: Don't override netfs's primary_index if registering failed
  FS-Cache: Increase reference of parent after registering, netfs success
  debugfs: fix refcount imbalance in start_creating
