Merge tag 'pull-f_path' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull file->f_path constification from Al Viro:
 "Only one thing was modifying ->f_path of an opened file - acct(2).

  Massaging that away and constifying a bunch of struct path * arguments
  in functions that might be given &file->f_path ends up with the
  situation where we can turn ->f_path into an anon union of const
  struct path f_path and struct path __f_path, the latter modified only
  in a few places in fs/{file_table,open,namei}.c, all for struct file
  instances that are yet to be opened"

* tag 'pull-f_path' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (23 commits)
