Patch series "GDB VFS utils". I've created a couple GDB convenience functions that I found useful when debugging some VFS issues and figure others might find them useful. For instance, they are useful in setting conditional breakpoints on VFS functions where you only care if the dentry path is a certain value. I took the opportunity to create a new "vfs" python module to give VFS related utilities a home. This patch (of 2): This will allow for more VFS specific GDB helpers to be collected in one place. Move utils.dentry_name into the vfs modules. Also a local variable in proc.py was changed from vfs to mnt to prevent a naming collision with the new vfs module.

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.
