Only a few file systems need this.  Start by pushing it down into each
rename method (except gfs2 and xfs) so that it can be dealt with on a
per-fs basis.

<title>bfs: fix bitmap size argument to find_first_zero_bit()</title>

<content type='text'>
The usage of find_first_zero_bit() in bfs_create() is wrong for two
reasons.

The bitmap size argument to find_first_zero_bit() is info-&gt;si_lasti but
the correct bitmap size is info-&gt;si_lasti + 1 as info-&gt;si_lasti is the
last valid index in info-&gt;si_imap bitmap.

Another problem is that it is impossible to detect that info-&gt;si_imap
bitmap is full because there is an off-by-one bug in the return value
check for find_first_zero_bit().  If no zero bits exist in info-&gt;si_imap,
find_first_zero_bit() returns info-&gt;si_lasti.  But the check can't catch
it due to the off-by-one.

<title>rename the generic fsync implementations</title>

We don't name our generic fsync implementations very well currently.
The no-op implementation for in-memory filesystems currently is called
simple_sync_file which doesn't make too much sense to start with,
the the generic one for simple filesystems is called simple_fsync
which can lead to some confusion.

This patch renames the generic file fsync method to generic_file_fsync
to match the other generic_file_* routines it is supposed to be used
with, and the no-op implementation to noop_fsync to make it obvious
what to expect.  In addition add some documentation for both methods.

* Remove smp_lock.h from files which don't need it (including some headers!)
* Add smp_lock.h to files which do need it
* Make smp_lock.h include conditional in hardirq.h
  It's needed only for one kernel_locked() usage which is under CONFIG_PREEMPT

  This will make hardirq.h inclusion cheaper for every PREEMPT=n config
  (which includes allmodconfig/allyesconfig, BTW)

<title>CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the BFS filesystem</title>

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-&gt;(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().

Change some task-&gt;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.
