  provided to the rest of the kernel"

* tag 'pull-rpc_pipefs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  rpc_create_client_dir(): return 0 or -E...
  rpc_create_client_dir(): don't bother with rpc_populate()
  rpc_new_dir(): the last argument is always NULL
  rpc_pipe: expand the calls of rpc_mkdir_populate()
  rpc_gssd_dummy_populate(): don't bother with rpc_populate()
  rpc_mkpipe_dentry(): switch to simple_start_creating()
  rpc_pipe: saner primitive for creating regular files
  rpc_pipe: saner primitive for creating subdirectories
  rpc_pipe: don't overdo directory locking
  rpc_mkpipe_dentry(): saner calling conventions
  rpc_unlink(): saner calling conventions
  rpc_populate(): lift cleanup into callers
  rpc_unlink(): use simple_recursive_removal()
  rpc_{rmdir_,}depopulate(): use simple_recursive_removal() instead
  rpc_pipe: clean failure exits in fill_super
  new helper: simple_start_creating()
