    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull uuid subsystem from Christoph Hellwig:
     "This is the new uuid subsystem, in which Amir, Andy and I have started
      consolidating our uuid/guid helpers and improving the types used for
      them. Note that various other subsystems have pulled in this tree, so
      I'd like it to go in early.
    
      UUID/GUID summary:
    
       - introduce the new uuid_t/guid_t types that are going to replace the
         somewhat confusing uuid_be/uuid_le types and make the terminology
         fit the various specs, as well as the userspace libuuid library.
         (me, based on a previous version from Amir)
    
       - consolidated generic uuid/guid helper functions lifted from XFS and
         libnvdimm (Amir and me)
    
       - conversions to the new types and helpers (Amir, Andy and me)"
