Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace update from Eric Biederman: "The only change that is production ready this round is the work to increase the number of uid and gid mappings a user namespace can support from 5 to 340. This code was carefully benchmarked and it was confirmed that in the existing cases the performance remains the same. In the worst case with 340 mappings an cache cold stat times go from 158ns to 248ns. That is noticable but still quite small, and only the people who are doing crazy things pay the cost. This work uncovered some documentation and cleanup opportunities in the mapping code, and patches to make those cleanups and improve the documentation will be coming in the next merge window" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: userns: Simplify insert_extent userns: Make map_id_down a wrapper for map_id_range_down userns: Don't read extents twice in m_start userns: Simplify the user and group mapping functions userns: Don't special case a count of 0 userns: bump idmap limits to 340 userns: use union in {g,u}idmap struct
