      kmemtrace, fs: uninline simple_transaction_set() · 76791ab2
      Ingo Molnar authored
      Impact: cleanup
      
      We want to remove percpu.h from rcupdate.h (for upcoming kmemtrace
      changes), but this is not possible currently without breaking the
      build because fs.h has an implicit include file depedency: it
      uses PAGE_SIZE but does not include asm/page.h which defines it.
      
      This problem gets masked in practice because most fs.h using sites
      use rcupreempt.h (and other headers) which includes percpu.h which
      brings in asm/page.h indirectly.
      
      We cannot add asm/page.h to asm/fs.h because page.h is not an
      exported header.
      
      Move simple_transaction_set() to the other simple-transaction
      file helpers in fs/libfs.c.
      
      This removes the include file hell and also reduces
      kernel size a bit.

      kmemtrace, fs, security: move alloc_secdata() and free_secdata() to linux/security.h · 3d544f41

      Impact: cleanup
      
      We want to remove percpu.h from rcupdate.h (for upcoming kmemtrace
      changes), but this is not possible currently without breaking the
      build because fs.h has implicit include file depedencies: it uses
      GFP_* types in inlines but does not include gfp.h.
      
      In practice most fs.h using .c files get gfp.h included implicitly,
      via an indirect route: via rcupdate.h inclusion - so this underlying
      problem gets masked in practice.
      
      So we want to solve fs.h's dependency on gfp.h.
      
      gfp.h can not be included here directly because it is not exported and it
      would break the build the following way:
      
        /home/mingo/tip/usr/include/linux/bsg.h:11: found __[us]{8,16,32,64} type without #include <linux/types.h>
        /home/mingo/tip/usr/include/linux/fs.h:11: included file 'linux/gfp.h' is not exported
        make[3]: *** [/home/mingo/tip/usr/include/linux/.check] Error 1
        make[2]: *** [linux] Error 2
      
      As suggested by Alexey Dobriyan, move alloc_secdata() and free_secdata()
      to linux/security.h - they belong there. This also cleans fs.h of GFP_*
      usage.
