[GIT PULL] eventfs: Updates for v6.8

[Steven Rostedt]

Linus,

This is only for tracefs/eventfs. It does not contain any of the
tracing subsystem updates. It may also conflict with vfs subsystem as
they had a change in the dentry walk, but that code that conflicts is
deleted by this pull request.

eventfs updates for v6.8:

Note, this has no new features but only restructures the eventfs and
tracefs code to simplify it and depend less on how dentry works.

- Remove "lookup" parameter of create_dir_dentry() and
  create_file_dentry(). These functions were called by lookup and the
  readdir logic, where readdir needed it to up the ref count of the dentry
  but the lookup did not. A "lookup" parameter was passed in to tell it
  what to do, but this complicated the code. It is better to just always
  up the ref count and require the caller to decrement it, even for
  lookup.

- Modify the .iterate_shared callback to not use the dcache_readdir()
  logic and just handle what gets displayed by that one function. This
  removes the need for eventfs to hijack the file->private_data from the
  dcache_readdir() "cursor" pointer, and makes the code a bit more sane.

- Use the root and instance inodes for default ownership. Instead of
  walking the dentry tree and updating each dentry gid, use the getattr(),
  setattr() and permission() callbacks to set the ownership and
  permissions using the root or instance as the default.

- Some other optimizations with the eventfs iterate_shared logic.
