Pull vfs afs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the work for afs for this cycle:

   - Fix an occasional hang that's only really encountered when
     rmmod'ing the kafs module

   - Remove the "-o autocell" mount option. This is obsolete with the
     dynamic root and removing it makes the next patch slightly easier

   - Change how the dynamic root mount is constructed. Currently, the
     root directory is (de)populated when it is (un)mounted if there are
     cells already configured and, further, pairs of automount points
     have to be created/removed each time a cell is added/deleted

     This is changed so that readdir on the root dir lists all the known
     cell automount pairs plus the @cell symlinks and the inodes and
     dentries are constructed by lookup on demand. This simplifies the
     cell management code

   - A few improvements to the afs_volume and afs_server tracepoints

   - Pass trace info into the afs_lookup_cell() function to allow the
     trace log to indicate the purpose of the lookup

   - Remove the 'net' parameter from afs_unuse_cell() as it's
     superfluous

   - In rxrpc, allow a kernel app (such as kafs) to store a word of
     information on rxrpc_peer records

   - Use the information stored on the rxrpc_peer record to point to the
     afs_server record. This allows the server address lookup to be done
     away with

   - Simplify the afs_server ref/activity accounting to make each one
     self-contained and not garbage collected from the cell management
     work item

   - Simplify the afs_cell ref/activity accounting to make each one of
     these also self-contained and not driven by a central management
     work item

     The current code was intended to make it such that a single timer
     for the namespace and one work item per cell could do all the work
     required to maintain these records. This, however, made for some
     sequencing problems when cleaning up these records. Further, the
     attempt to pass refs along with timers and work items made getting
     it right rather tricky when the timer or work item already had a
     ref attached and now a ref had to be got rid of"
