Merge tag 'vfs-6.15-rc1.async.dir' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull vfs async dir updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains cleanups that fell out of the work from async directory
  handling:

   - Change kern_path_locked() and user_path_locked_at() to never return
     a negative dentry. This simplifies the usability of these helpers
     in various places

   - Drop d_exact_alias() from the remaining place in NFS where it is
     still used. This also allows us to drop the d_exact_alias() helper
     completely

   - Drop an unnecessary call to fh_update() from nfsd_create_locked()

   - Change i_op->mkdir() to return a struct dentry

     Change vfs_mkdir() to return a dentry provided by the filesystems
     which is hashed and positive. This allows us to reduce the number
     of cases where the resulting dentry is not positive to very few
     cases. The code in these places becomes simpler and easier to
     understand.

   - Repack DENTRY_* and LOOKUP_* flags"

* tag 'vfs-6.15-rc1.async.dir' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
  doc: fix inline emphasis warning
  VFS: Change vfs_mkdir() to return the dentry.
  nfs: change mkdir inode_operation to return alternate dentry if needed.
  fuse: return correct dentry for ->mkdir
  ceph: return the correct dentry on mkdir
  hostfs: store inode in dentry after mkdir if possible.
  Change inode_operations.mkdir to return struct dentry *
  nfsd: drop fh_update() from S_IFDIR branch of nfsd_create_locked()
  nfs/vfs: discard d_exact_alias()
  VFS: add common error checks to lookup_one_qstr_excl()
  VFS: change kern_path_locked() and user_path_locked_at() to never return negative dentry
  VFS: repack LOOKUP_ bit flags.
  VFS: repack DENTRY_ flags.
