Merge branch 'work.inode-type-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull vfs inode type handling updates from Al Viro:
 "We should never change the type bits of ->i_mode or the method tables
  (->i_op and ->i_fop) of a live inode.

  Unfortunately, not all filesystems took care to prevent that"

* 'work.inode-type-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  spufs: fix bogosity in S_ISGID handling
  9p: missing chunk of "fs/9p: Don't update file type when updating file attributes"
  openpromfs: don't do unlock_new_inode() until the new inode is set up
  hostfs_mknod(): don't bother with init_special_inode()
  cifs: have cifs_fattr_to_inode() refuse to change type on live inode
  cifs: have ->mkdir() handle race with another client sanely
  do_cifs_create(): don't set ->i_mode of something we had not created
  gfs2: be careful with inode refresh
  ocfs2_inode_lock_update(): make sure we don't change the type bits of i_mode
  orangefs_inode_is_stale(): i_mode type bits do *not* form a bitmap...
  vboxsf: don't allow to change the inode type
  afs: Fix updating of i_mode due to 3rd party change
  ceph: don't allow type or device number to change on non-I_NEW inodes
  ceph: fix up error handling with snapdirs
  new helper: inode_wrong_type()
