Duplicate infrastructure from direct read path that will allow write
path to generate multiple write requests concurrently. This will
enable us to add support for aio in this path.
Temporarily we will lose the ability to do UNSTABLE writes followed by
a COMMIT in the direct write path. However, all applications I am
aware of that use NFS O_DIRECT currently write in relatively small
chunks, so this should not be inconvenient in any way.

The NFS client's a_ops->direct_IO method, nfs_direct_IO, is required to
be present to allow NFS files to be opened with O_DIRECT, but is never
called because the NFS client shunts reads and writes to files opened
with O_DIRECT directly to its own routines.
Gut the nfs_direct_IO function. This eliminates the only part of the
NFS client's direct I/O path that requires support for multi-segment
iovs, allowing further simplification in subsequent patches.

Same callback hierarchy inversion as for the NFS write calls. This patch is
not strictly speaking needed by the O_DIRECT code, but avoids confusing

Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
This patch inverts the callback hierarchy for NFS write calls.
Instead of having the NFSv2/v3/v4-specific code set up the RPC callback
ops, we allow the original caller to do so. This allows for more
flexibility w.r.t. how to set up and tear down the nfs_write_data
structure while still allowing the NFSv3/v4 code to perform error
handling.
The greater flexibility is needed by the asynchronous O_DIRECT code, which
wants to be able to hold on to the original nfs_write_data structures after
the WRITE RPC call has completed in order to be able to replay them if the
COMMIT call determines that the server has rebooted.

Currently lockd identifies its own locks using the FL_LOCKD flag. This
doesn't scale well to multiple lock managers--if we did this in nfsv4 too,
for example, we'd be left with only one free flag bit.
Instead, we just check whether the file manager ops (fl_lmops) set on this
lock are our own.
The only use for this is in nlm_traverse_locks, which uses it to find locks
that need cleaning up when freeing a host or a file.
In the long run it might be nice to do reference counting instead of
traversing all the locks like this....

posix_test_lock() returns a pointer to a struct file_lock which is unprotected
and can be removed while in use by the caller. Move the conflicting lock from
the return to a parameter, and copy the conflicting lock.
In most cases the caller ends up putting the copy of the conflicting lock on
the stack. On i386, sizeof(struct file_lock) appears to be about 100 bytes.

diagnostic messages that trace the operation of the NFS client's
directory behavior. A few new messages are now generated when NFSDBG_VFS

Currently, there is no serialisation between NFS asynchronous writebacks
and truncation at the page level due to the fact that nfs_sync_inode()
cannot lock the pages that it is about to write out.
This means that it is possible to be flushing out data (and calling something
like set_page_writeback()) while the page cache is busy evicting the page.
Oops...

are always written back to storage before we evict them.

This fixes not one, but _two_, silly (but admittedly hard to hit) bugs
in the ext2 filesystem "readdir()" function. It also cleans up the code
to avoid the unnecessary goto mess.
The bugs were related to re-valiating the f_pos value after somebody had
either done an "lseek()" on the directory to an invalid offset, or when
the offset had become invalid due to a file being unlinked in the
directory. The code would not only set the f_version too eagerly, it
would also not update f_pos appropriately for when the offset fixup took
place.
When that happened, we'd occasionally subsequently fail the readdir()
even when we shouldn't (no real harm done, but an ugly printk, and
obviously you would end up not necessarily seeing all entries).
