Deprecation period of reiserfs ends with the end of this year so it is
time to remove it from the kernel.

This makes it harder for accidental or malicious changes to
reiserfs_xattr_handlers at runtime.

In later patches, we're going to change how the inode's ctime field is
used. Switch to using accessor functions instead of raw accesses of
inode-&gt;i_ctime.

Reiserfs is the only filesystem that removes IOP_XATTR without also
using a set of dedicated inode operations at the same time that nop all
xattr related inode operations. This means we need to have a IOP_XATTR
check in vfs_listxattr() instead of just being able to check for
-&gt;listxatt() being implemented.

Introduce a dedicated set of nop inode operations that are used when
IOP_XATTR is removed, allowing us to remove that check from
vfs_listxattr(). This in turn allows us to completely decouple POSIX ACLs from
IOP_XATTR.

Rework reiserfs so it doesn't have to rely on the dummy xattr handlers
in its s_xattr list anymore as this is completely unused for setting and
getting posix acls.

Convert to struct mnt_idmap.

Last cycle we merged the necessary infrastructure in
256c8aed2b42 ("fs: introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts").
This is just the conversion to struct mnt_idmap.

Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a
mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy to
conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces
that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for non-vfs developers
without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for
bugs.

Once the conversion to struct mnt_idmap is done all helpers down to the
really low-level helpers will take a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of
two namespace arguments. This way it becomes impossible to conflate the two
eliminating the possibility of any bugs. All of the vfs and all filesystems
only operate on struct mnt_idmap.

<title>Change calling conventions for filldir_t</title>

<id>urn:sha1:25885a35a72007cf28ec5f9ba7169c5c798f7167</id>
<content type='text'>
filldir_t instances (directory iterators callbacks) used to return 0 for
"OK, keep going" or -E... for "stop".  Note that it's *NOT* how the
error values are reported - the rules for those are callback-dependent
and -&gt;iterate{,_shared}() instances only care about zero vs. non-zero
(look at emit_dir() and friends).

So let's just return bool ("should we keep going?") - it's less confusing
that way.  The choice between "true means keep going" and "true means
stop" is bikesheddable; we have two groups of callbacks -
	do something for everything in directory, until we run into problem
and
	find an entry in directory and do something to it.

The former tended to use 0/-E... conventions - -E&lt;something&gt; on failure.
The latter tended to use 0/1, 1 being "stop, we are done".
The callers treated anything non-zero as "stop", ignoring which
non-zero value did they get.

"true means stop" would be more natural for the second group; "true
means keep going" - for the first one.  I tried both variants and
the things like
	if allocation failed
		something = -ENOMEM;
		return true;
just looked unnatural and asking for trouble.
