  Documentation: filesystems: update filesystem locking documentation
  vfs: namei: use path_equal() in follow_dotdot()
  fs.h: fix outdated comment about file flags
  __inode_security_revalidate() never gets NULL opt_dentry
  make xattr_getsecurity() static
  vfat: simplify checks in vfat_lookup()
  get rid of dead code in d_find_alias()
  it's SB_BORN, not MS_BORN...
