Artem Bityutskiy 9e6c5829b0 hfsplus: get rid of write_super
This patch makes hfsplus stop using the VFS '->write_super()' method along with
the 's_dirt' superblock flag, because they are on their way out.

The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the
'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds and
writes out all dirty superblocks using the '->write_super()' call-back.  But the
problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every
5 seconds, even if there are no diry superblocks, or there are no client
file-systems which would need this (e.g., btrfs does not use
'->write_super()'). So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to make
file-systems to stop using the '->write_super()' VFS service, and then remove
it together with the kernel thread.

Tested using fsstress from the LTP project.

Christoph Hellwig dd73a01a30 hfsplus: fix HFSPLUS_SB calling convention
HFSPLUS_SB doesn't return a pointer to the hfsplus-specific superblock
information like all other FOO_SB macros, but dereference the pointer in a way
that made it look like a direct struct derefence.  This only works as long
as the HFSPLUS_SB macro is used directly and prevents us from keepig a local
hfsplus_sb_info pointer.  Fix the calling convention and introduce a local
sbi variable in all functions that use it constantly.

Christoph Hellwig 40bf48afe9 hfsplus: introduce alloc_mutex
Use a new per-sb alloc_mutex instead of abusing i_mutex of the alloc_file
to protect block allocations.  This gets rid of lockdep nesting warnings
and prepares for extending the scope of alloc_mutex.

This happens because the return value of read_mapping_page() is passed on
to kmap unchecked.  The bug is triggered after the first
read_mapping_page() in hfsplus_block_allocate(), this patch fixes all
three usages in this functions but leaves the ones further down in the
file unchanged.

Pekka Enberg 090d2b185d [PATCH] read_mapping_page for address space
Add read_mapping_page() which is used for callers that pass
mapping->a_ops->readpage as the filler for read_cache_page.  This removes
some duplication from filesystem code.

Jes Sorensen 1b1dcc1b57 [PATCH] mutex subsystem, semaphore to mutex: VFS, ->i_sem
This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on
XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your
luck with it might be different.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
