Those patch updates all look sane to me.

Ack. That series you posted looks fine. I didn't do any actual testing
or applying the patches, just looking at them.

The one thing I noticed is that the 'llist' removal still needs to be
done. The logical point is that "[PATCH v2 7/7]" where the
eventfs_workfn stuff is ripped out.

And the 'rcu' head should now be a union with something that is no
longer used after the last kref. The only thing that *is* used after
the last kref is the "is_freed" bit, so there's lots of choice. Using
the 'struct list_head listl' that is used for the child list would
seem to be the obvious choice, but it could be anything (including all
of the beginning of that eventfs_inode, but then you would need to
group that as another nested unnamed struct, so picking a "big enough"
entry like 'list' makes it syntactically simpler.
