Merge tag 'for-linus-v3.8-rc1' of git://oss.sgi.com/xfs/xfs

Pull xfs update from Ben Myers:
 "There is plenty going on, including the cleanup of xfssyncd, metadata
  verifiers, CRC infrastructure for the log, tracking of inodes with
  speculative allocation, a cleanup of xfs_fs_subr.c, fixes for
  XFS_IOC_ZERO_RANGE, and important fix related to log replay (only
  update the last_sync_lsn when a transaction completes), a fix for
  deadlock on AGF buffers, documentation and comment updates, and a few
  more cleanups and fixes.

  Details:
   - remove the xfssyncd mess
   - only update the last_sync_lsn when a transaction completes
   - zero allocation_args on the kernel stack
   - fix AGF/alloc workqueue deadlock
   - silence uninitialised f.file warning
   - Update inode alloc comments
   - Update mount options documentation
   - report projid32bit feature in geometry call
   - speculative preallocation inode tracking
   - fix attr tree double split corruption
   - fix broken error handling in xfs_vm_writepage
   - drop buffer io reference when a bad bio is built
   - add more attribute tree trace points
   - growfs infrastructure changes for 3.8
   - fs/xfs/xfs_fs_subr.c die die die
   - add CRC infrastructure
   - add CRC checks to the log
   - Remove description of nodelaylog mount option from xfs.txt
   - inode allocation should use unmapped buffers
   - byte range granularity for XFS_IOC_ZERO_RANGE
   - fix direct IO nested transaction deadlock
   - fix stray dquot unlock when reclaiming dquots
   - fix sparse reported log CRC endian issue"

Fix up trivial conflict in fs/xfs/xfs_fsops.c due to the same patch
having been applied twice (commits eaef854335ce and 1375cb65e87b: "xfs:
growfs: don't read garbage for new secondary superblocks") with later
updates to the affected code in the XFS tree.
