Pull vfs async directory updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains further preparatory changes for the asynchronous directory
  locking scheme:

   - Add lookup_one_positive_killable() which allows overlayfs to
     perform lookup that won't block on a fatal signal

   - Unify the mount idmap handling in struct renamedata as a rename can
     only happen within a single mount

   - Introduce kern_path_parent() for audit which sets the path to the
     parent and returns a dentry for the target without holding any
     locks on return

   - Rename kern_path_locked() as it is only used to prepare for the
     removal of an object from the filesystem:

	kern_path_locked()    => start_removing_path()
	kern_path_create()    => start_creating_path()
	user_path_create()    => start_creating_user_path()
	user_path_locked_at() => start_removing_user_path_at()
	done_path_create()    => end_creating_path()
	NA                    => end_removing_path()"

* tag 'vfs-6.18-rc1.async' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
  debugfs: rename start_creating() to debugfs_start_creating()
  VFS: rename kern_path_locked() and related functions.
  VFS/audit: introduce kern_path_parent() for audit
  VFS: unify old_mnt_idmap and new_mnt_idmap in renamedata
  VFS: discard err2 in filename_create()
  VFS/ovl: add lookup_one_positive_killable()

start_creating() is a generic name which I would like to use for a
function similar to simple_start_creating(), only not quite so simple.

debugfs is using this name which, though static, will cause complaints
if then name is given a different signature in a header file.

So rename it to debugfs_start_creating().

Mount options (uid, gid, mode) are silently ignored when debugfs is
mounted. This is a regression introduced during the conversion to the
new mount API.

When the mount API conversion was done, the parsed options were never
applied to the superblock when it was reused. As a result, the mount
options were ignored when debugfs was mounted.

Fix this by following the same pattern as the tracefs fix in commit
e4d32142d1de ("tracing: Fix tracefs mount options"). Call
debugfs_reconfigure() in debugfs_get_tree() to apply the mount options
to the superblock after it has been created or reused.

As an example, with the bug the "mode" mount option is ignored:

  $ mount -o mode=0666 -t debugfs debugfs /tmp/debugfs_test
  $ mount | grep debugfs_test
  debugfs on /tmp/debugfs_test type debugfs (rw,relatime)
  $ ls -ld /tmp/debugfs_test
  drwx------ 25 root root 0 Aug  4 14:16 /tmp/debugfs_test

With the fix applied, it works as expected:

  $ mount -o mode=0666 -t debugfs debugfs /tmp/debugfs_test
  $ mount | grep debugfs_test
  debugfs on /tmp/debugfs_test type debugfs (rw,relatime,mode=666)
  $ ls -ld /tmp/debugfs_test
  drw-rw-rw- 37 root root 0 Aug  2 17:28 /tmp/debugfs_test

Set the things up for kernel-initiated creation of object in
a tree-in-dcache filesystem.  With respect to locking it's
an equivalent of filename_create() - we either get a negative
dentry with locked parent, or ERR_PTR() and no locks taken.

tracefs and debugfs had that open-coded as part of their
object creation machinery; switched to calling new helper.
