commit ba8adad5d036733d240fa8a8f4d055f3d4490562 upstream.
Remove the XFS wrappers for converting from and to the kuid/kgid types.
Mostly this means switching to VFS i_{u,g}id_{read,write} helpers, but
in a few spots the calls to the conversion functions is open coded.
To match the use of sb->s_user_ns in the helpers and other file systems,
sb->s_user_ns is also used in the quota code. The ACL code already does
the conversion in a grotty layering violation in the VFS xattr code,
so it keeps using init_user_ns for the identity mapping.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
