We're really accounting for the same page twice now: once in
generic_writepages(), and once in nfs_scan_dirty().
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
There is now no reason to account for the dirty pages in the NFS code,
since the VM code will now do it for us via __set_page_dirty_nobuffers(),
and set_page_writeback().
We still need to keep the accounting of stable writes, though.

invalidate_inode_pages2_range() will clear the PG_dirty bit before calling
try_to_release_page().

This will ensure that we can call set_page_writeback() from within
nfs_writepage(), which is always called with the page lock set.

We will want to allow nfs_writepage() to distinguish between pages that
have been marked as dirty by the VM, and those that have been marked as
dirty by nfs_updatepage().
In the former case, the entire page will want to be written out, and so any
requests that were pending need to be flushed out first.

Maintaining two parallel ways of doing synchronous writes is rather
pointless. This patch gets rid of the legacy nfs_writepage_sync(), and
replaces it with the faster asynchronous writes.

We always ensure that the nfs_open_context holds a reference to the dentry,
so the test in nfs_writepage() for whether or not the inode is referenced
is redundant.

This will allow fast lookup of the nfs_page from the struct page instead of
having to search the radix tree.

Currently nfs_sync_inode_wait() will fail to loop correctly when we call
nfs_sync_inode_wait with the FLUSH_INVALIDATE argument.

We must always call ->read_done() before we truncate the page data, or
decide to flag an error. The reasons are that
in NFSv2, ->read_done() is where the eof flag gets set.
in NFSv3/v4 ->read_done() handles EJUKEBOX-type errors, and
v4 state recovery.
However, we need to mark the pages as uptodate before we deal with short
read errors, since we may need to modify the nfs_read_data arguments.
We therefore split the current nfs_readpage_result() into two parts:
nfs_readpage_result(), which calls ->read_done() etc, and
nfs_readpage_retry(), which subsequently handles short reads.
Note: Removing the code that retries in case of a short read also fixes a
bug in nfs_direct_read_result(), which used to return a corrupted number of
bytes.

When trying to open a file with the O_EXCL flag over NFS on a server that does
not support exclusive mode, the file does not open. The reason,
rpc_call_sync returns a errno number, and not the nfs error number. I fixed
it by changing the status check in nfs3proc.c. Either this is how it should
be fixed, or rpc_call_sync should be fixed to return the NFS error.

Use RCU to ensure that we can safely call rpc_finish_wakeup after we've
called __rpc_do_wake_up_task. If not, there is a theoretical race, in which
the rpc_task finishes executing, and gets freed first.

This patch adds SPU elf notes to the coredump. It creates a separate note
for each of /regs, /fpcr, /lslr, /decr, /decr_status, /mem, /signal1,
/signal1_type, /signal2, /signal2_type, /event_mask, /event_status,
/mbox_info, /ibox_info, /wbox_info, /dma_info, /proxydma_info, /object-id.
A new macro, ARCH_HAVE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created for architectures to
specify they have extra elf core notes.
A new macro, ELF_CORE_EXTRA_NOTES_SIZE, was created so the size of the
additional notes could be calculated and added to the notes phdr entry.
A new macro, ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created so the new notes
would be written after the existing notes.
The SPU coredump code resides in spufs. Stub functions are provided in the
kernel which are hooked into the spufs code which does the actual work via
register_arch_coredump_calls().
A new set of __spufs_<file>_read/get() functions was provided to allow the
coredump code to read from the spufs files without having to lock the
SPU context for each file read from.
