Boaz Harrosh 2f246fd0f1 exofs: New truncate sequence
These changes are crafted based on the similar
conversion done to ext2 by Nick Piggin.

* Remove the deprecated ->truncate vector. Let exofs_setattr
  take care of on-disk size updates.
* Call truncate_pagecache on the unused pages if
  write_begin/end fails.
* Cleanup exofs_delete_inode that did stupid inode
  writes and updates on an inode that will be
  removed.
* And finally get rid of exofs_get_block. We never
  had any blocks it was all for calling nobh_truncate_page.
  nobh_truncate_page is not actually needed in exofs since
  the last page is complete and gone, just like all the other
  pages. There is no partial blocks in exofs.

I've tested with this patch, and there are no apparent
failures, so far.

Boaz Harrosh b284834929 exofs: exofs_file_fsync and exofs_file_flush correctness
As per Christoph advise: no need to call filemap_write_and_wait().
In exofs all metadata is at the inode so just writing the inode is
all is needed. ->fsync implies this must be done synchronously.

But now exofs_file_fsync can not be used by exofs_file_flush.
vfs_fsync() should do that job correctly.

FIXME: remove the sb_sync and fix that sb_update better.

Boaz Harrosh baaf94cdc7 exofs: Avoid using file_fsync()
The use of file_fsync() in exofs_file_sync() is not necessary since it
does some extra stuff not used by exofs. Open code just the parts that
are currently needed.

TODO: Farther optimization can be done to sync the sb only on inode
update of new files, Usually the sb update is not needed in exofs.

Boaz Harrosh 27d2e14919 exofs: Remove IBM copyrights
Boaz,
Congrats on getting all the OSD stuff into 2.6.30!
I just pulled the git, and saw that the IBM copyrights are still there.
Please remove them from all files:
 * Copyright (C) 2005, 2006
 * International Business Machines

IBM has revoked all rights on the code - they gave it to me.

Thanks!
Avishay

Boaz Harrosh e806271916 exofs: file and file_inode operations
implementation of the file_operations and inode_operations for
regular data files.

Most file_operations are generic vfs implementations except:
- exofs_truncate will truncate the OSD object as well
- Generic file_fsync is not good for none_bd devices so open code it
- The default for .flush in Linux is todo nothing so call exofs_fsync
  on the file.
