  vfs: count unlinked inodes
  vfs: protect remounting superblock read-only
  vfs: keep list of mounts for each superblock
  vfs: switch ->show_options() to struct dentry *
  vfs: switch ->show_path() to struct dentry *
  vfs: switch ->show_devname() to struct dentry *
  vfs: switch ->show_stats to struct dentry *
  switch security_path_chmod() to struct path *
  vfs: prefer ->dentry->d_sb to ->mnt->mnt_sb
  vfs: trim includes a bit
  switch mnt_namespace ->root to struct mount
  vfs: take /proc/*/mounts and friends to fs/proc_namespace.c
  vfs: opencode mntget() mnt_set_mountpoint()
  vfs: spread struct mount - remaining argument of next_mnt()
  vfs: move fsnotify junk to struct mount
  vfs: move mnt_devname
  vfs: move mnt_list to struct mount
  vfs: switch pnode.h macros to struct mount *
