Pull fscache and cachefiles fixes from David Howells:
"Misc fixes:
- Fix an assertion failure at fs/cachefiles/xattr.c:138 caused by a
race between a cache object lookup failing and someone attempting
to reenable that object, thereby triggering an update of the
object's attributes.
- Fix an assertion failure at fs/fscache/operation.c:449 caused by a
split atomic subtract and atomic read that allows a race to happen.
- Fix a leak of backing pages when simultaneously reading the same
page from the same object from two or more threads.
- Fix a hang due to a race between a cache object being discarded and
the corresponding cookie being reenabled.
There are also some minor cleanups:
- Cast an enum value to a different enum type to prevent clang from
generating a warning. This shouldn't cause any sort of change in
the emitted code.
- Use ktime_get_real_seconds() instead of get_seconds(). This is just
used to uniquify a filename for an object to be placed in the
graveyard. Objects placed there are deleted by cachfilesd in
userspace immediately thereafter.
- Remove an initialised, but otherwise unused variable. This should
have been entirely optimised away anyway"

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.
