The patch extends fuse_setattr_in, and extends the flush procedure
(fuse_flush_times()) called on -&gt;write_inode() to send the ctime as well as
mtime.

Allow userspace fs to specify time granularity.

This is needed because with writeback_cache mode the kernel is responsible
for generating mtime and ctime, but if the underlying filesystem doesn't
support nanosecond granularity then the cache will contain a different
value from the one stored on the filesystem resulting in a change of times
after a cache flush.

Make the default granularity 1s.

Pull file locking fixes from Jeff Layton:
 "File locking related bugfixes for v3.15 (pile #2)

   - fix for a long-standing bug in __break_lease that can cause soft

   - renaming of file-private locks to "open file description" locks,
     and the command macros to more visually distinct names

  The fix for __break_lease is also in the pile of patches for which
  Bruce sent a pull request, but I assume that your merge procedure will
  handle that correctly.

  For the other patches, I don't like the fact that we need to rename
  this stuff at this late stage, but it should be settled now
  (hopefully)"

<title>locks: rename file-private locks to "open file description locks"</title>

<content type='text'>
File-private locks have been merged into Linux for v3.15, and *now*
people are commenting that the name and macro definitions for the new
file-private locks suck.

...and I can't even disagree. The names and command macros do suck.

We're going to have to live with these for a long time, so it's
important that we be happy with the names before we're stuck with them.
The consensus on the lists so far is that they should be rechristened as
"open file description locks".

The name isn't a big deal for the kernel, but the command macros are not
visually distinct enough from the traditional POSIX lock macros. The
glibc and documentation folks are recommending that we change them to
look like F_OFD_{GETLK|SETLK|SETLKW}. That lessens the chance that a
programmer will typo one of the commands wrong, and also makes it easier
to spot this difference when reading code.

This patch makes the following changes that I think are necessary before
v3.15 ships:

1) rename the command macros to their new names. These end up in the uapi
   headers and so are part of the external-facing API. It turns out that
   glibc doesn't actually use the fcntl.h uapi header, but it's hard to
   be sure that something else won't. Changing it now is safest.

2) make the the /proc/locks output display these as type "OFDLCK"

On some newer laptops with a trackpoint the physical buttons for the
trackpoint have been removed to allow for a larger touchpad. On these
laptops the buttonpad has clearly marked areas on the top which are to be
used as trackpad buttons.

Users of the event device-node need to know about this, so that they can
properly interpret BTN_LEFT events as being a left / right / middle click
depending on where on the button pad the clicking finger is.

This commits adds a INPUT_PROP_TOPBUTTONPAD device property which drivers
for such buttonpads will use to signal to the user that this buttonpad not
only has the normal bottom button area, but also a top button area.

<id>cbfbbabb89b37f6bad05f478d906a385149f288d</id>
<content type='text'>
The version of the drm_tegra_submit structure that was merged all the
way back in 3.10 contains a pad field that was originally intended to
properly pad the following __u64 field. Unfortunately it seems like a
different field was dropped during review that caused this padding to
become unnecessary, but the pad field wasn't removed at that time.

One possible side-effect of this is that since the __u64 following the
pad is now no longer properly aligned, the compiler may (or may not)
introduce padding itself, which results in no predictable ABI.

Rectify this by removing the pad field so that all fields are again
naturally aligned. Technically this is breaking existing userspace ABI,
but given that there aren't any (released) userspace drivers that make
use of this yet, the fallout should be minimal.

The version of the drm_tegra_submit structure that was merged all the
way back in 3.10 contains a pad field that was originally intended to
properly pad the following __u64 field. Unfortunately it seems like a
different field was dropped during review that caused this padding to
become unnecessary, but the pad field wasn't removed at that time.

One possible side-effect of this is that since the __u64 following the
pad is now no longer properly aligned, the compiler may (or may not)
introduce padding itself, which results in no predictable ABI.

Rectify this by removing the pad field so that all fields are again
naturally aligned. Technically this is breaking existing userspace ABI,
but given that there aren't any (released) userspace drivers that make
use of this yet, the fallout should be minimal.
