Pull mount handling updates from Al Viro:
 "Cleanups (and one fix) around struct mount handling.

  The fix is usermode_driver.c one - once you've done kern_mount(), you
  must kern_unmount(); simple mntput() will end up with a leak. Several
  failure exits in there messed up that way... In practice you won't hit
  those particular failure exits without fault injection, though"

* tag 'pull-18-rc1-work.mount' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  move mount-related externs from fs.h to mount.h
  blob_to_mnt(): kern_unmount() is needed to undo kern_mount()
  m-&gt;mnt_root-&gt;d_inode-&gt;i_sb is a weird way to spell m-&gt;mnt_sb...
  linux/mount.h: trim includes
  uninline may_mount() and don't opencode it in fspick(2)/fsopen(2)

common_shutdown_1() calls cpumask_weight() to check if any bit of a
given cpumask is set. We can do it more efficiently with cpumask_empty()
because cpumask_empty() stops traversing the cpumask as soon as it finds
first set bit, while cpumask_weight() counts all bits unconditionally.

<title>fork: Generalize PF_IO_WORKER handling</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5bd2e97c868a8a44470950ed01846cab6328e540</id>
<content type='text'>
Add fn and fn_arg members into struct kernel_clone_args and test for
them in copy_thread (instead of testing for PF_KTHREAD | PF_IO_WORKER).
This allows any task that wants to be a user space task that only runs
in kernel mode to use this functionality.

The code on x86 is an exception and still retains a PF_KTHREAD test
because x86 unlikely everything else handles kthreads slightly
differently than user space tasks that start with a function.

The functions that created tasks that start with a function
have been updated to set ".fn" and ".fn_arg" instead of
".stack" and ".stack_size".  These functions are fork_idle(),
create_io_thread(), kernel_thread(), and user_mode_thread().

<id>urn:sha1:c5febea0956fd3874e8fb59c6f84d68f128d68f8</id>
<content type='text'>
With io_uring we have started supporting tasks that are for most
purposes user space tasks that exclusively run code in kernel mode.

The kernel task that exec's init and tasks that exec user mode
helpers are also user mode tasks that just run kernel code
until they call kernel execve.

Pass kernel_clone_args into copy_thread so these oddball
tasks can be supported more cleanly and easily.

$(shell ...) expands to empty. There is no need to assign it to _dummy.

Move set_notify_resume and tracehook_notify_resume into resume_user_mode.h.
While doing that rename tracehook_notify_resume to resume_user_mode_work.

Update all of the places that included tracehook.h for these functions to
include resume_user_mode.h instead.

Update all of the callers of tracehook_notify_resume to call
resume_user_mode_work.
