OK, I can live with that.  dcache fixes + kvfree() (uninlined, exported by
mm/util.c) + posix_acl bugfix from hch.  Please, pull from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git for-linus

Shortlog:
Al Viro (9):
      fix races between __d_instantiate() and checks of dentry flags
      fold d_kill() and d_free()
      fold try_prune_one_dentry()
      new helper: dentry_free()
      expand the call of dentry_lru_del() in dentry_kill()
      dentry_kill(): don't try to remove from shrink list
      don't remove from shrink list in select_collect()
      more graceful recovery in umount_collect()
      nick kvfree() from apparmor

Christoph Hellwig (1):
      posix_acl: handle NULL ACL in posix_acl_equiv_mode

Miklos Szeredi (1):
      dcache: don't need rcu in shrink_dentry_list()
