Merge branch 'work.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull misc vfs cleanups from Al Viro:
 "Assorted cleanups and fixes all over the place"

* 'work.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  coredump: only charge written data against RLIMIT_CORE
  coredump: get rid of coredump_params->written
  ecryptfs_lookup(): try either only encrypted or plaintext name
  ecryptfs: avoid multiple aliases for directories
  bpf: reject invalid names right in ->lookup()
  __d_alloc(): treat NULL name as QSTR("/", 1)
  mtd: switch ubi_open_volume_path() to vfs_stat()
  mtd: switch open_mtd_by_chdev() to use of vfs_stat()
