Merge branch 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs

Pull UDF fixes from Jan Kara:
 "Fixes for UDF handling of NFS handles and one fix for proper handling
  of corrupted media"

* 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs:
  udf: saner calling conventions for udf_new_inode()
  udf: fix the udf_iget() vs. udf_new_inode() races
  udf: merge the pieces inserting a new non-directory object into directory
  udf: Set i_generation field
  udf: Properly detect stale inodes
  udf: Make udf_read_inode() and udf_iget() return error
  udf: Avoid infinite loop when processing indirect ICBs
  udf: Fold udf_fill_inode() into __udf_read_inode()
  udf: Avoid dir link count to go negative
