Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull vfs fix from Al Viro: "Oh, well... Still nothing useful on that livelock (I had something that looked kinda-sorta like a non-invasive solution, but it deadlocks), so it's just Miklos' vmsplice fix for now" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: vfs: fix vmplice_to_user()
