Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/fuse
Pull fuse updates from Miklos Szeredi:
"This is the start of improving fuse scalability.
An input queue and a processing queue is split out from the monolithic
fuse connection, each of those having their own spinlock. The end of
the patchset adds the ability to clone a fuse connection. This means,
that instead of having to read/write requests/answers on a single fuse
device fd, the fuse daemon can have multiple distinct file descriptors
open. Each of those can be used to receive requests and send answers,
currently the only constraint is that a request must be answered on
the same fd as it was read from.
This can be extended further to allow binding a device clone to a
specific CPU or NUMA node.
Based on a patchset by Srinivas Eeda and Ashish Samant. Thanks to
Ashish for the review of this series"
