s_syncing livelock avoidance was breaking data integrity guarantee of
sys_sync, by allowing sys_sync to skip writing or waiting for superblocks
if there is a concurrent sys_sync happening.
This livelock avoidance is much less important now that we don't have the
get_super_to_sync() call after every sb that we sync. This was replaced
by __put_super_and_need_restart.

Remove WB_SYNC_HOLD. The primary motiviation is the design of my
anti-starvation code for fsync. It requires taking an inode lock over the
sync operation, so we could run into lock ordering problems with multiple
inodes. It is possible to take a single global lock to solve the ordering
problem, but then that would prevent a future nice implementation of "sync
multiple inodes" based on lock order via inode address.
Seems like a backward step to remove this, but actually it is busted
anyway: we can't use the inode lists for data integrity wait: an inode can
be taken off the dirty lists but still be under writeback. In order to
satisfy data integrity semantics, we should wait for it to finish
writeback, but if we only search the dirty lists, we'll miss it.
It would be possible to have a "writeback" list, for sys_sync, I suppose.
But why complicate things by prematurely optimise? For unmounting, we
could avoid the "livelock avoidance" code, which would be easier, but
again premature IMO.
Fixing the existing data integrity problem will come next.

WB_SYNC_HOLD is going to be zapped so we should not use it. Use
%WB_SYNC_NONE instead. Here is what akpm said:
"I think I'll just switch that to WB_SYNC_NONE. The `wait==0' mode is
just an advisory thing to help the fs shove lots of data into the
queues. If some gets missed then it'll be picked up on the second
->sync_fs call, with wait==1."
Thanks to Randy Dunlap for catching this.

In case of error extending write may have instantiated a few blocks
outside i_size. We need to trim these blocks. We have to do it
*regardless* to blocksize. At least ext2, ext3 and reiserfs interpret
(i_size < biggest block) condition as error. Fsck will complain about
wrong i_size. Then fsck will fix the error by changing i_size according
to the biggest block. This is bad because this blocks contain garbage
from previous write attempt. And result in data corruption.

While tracing I/O patterns with blktrace (a great tool) a few weeks ago I
identified a minor issue in fs/mpage.c
As the comment above mpage_readpages() says, a fs's get_block function
will set BH_Boundary when it maps a block just before a block for which
extra I/O is required.
Since get_block() can map a range of pages, for all these pages the
BH_Boundary flag will be set. But we only need to push what I/O we have
accumulated at the last block of this range.
This makes do_mpage_readpage() send out the largest possible bio instead
of a bunch of page-sized ones in the BH_Boundary case.

The KernelPageSize entry in /proc/pid/smaps is the pagesize used by the
kernel to back a VMA. This matches the size used by the MMU in the
majority of cases. However, one counter-example occurs on PPC64 kernels
whereby a kernel using 64K as a base pagesize may still use 4K pages for
the MMU on older processor. To distinguish, this patch reports
MMUPageSize as the pagesize used by the MMU in /proc/pid/smaps.

It is useful to verify a hugepage-aware application is using the expected
pagesizes for its memory regions. This patch creates an entry called
KernelPageSize in /proc/pid/smaps that is the size of page used by the
kernel to back a VMA. The entry is not called PageSize as it is possible
the MMU uses a different size. This extension should not break any sensible
parser that skips lines containing unrecognised information.

This mount option is largely superfluous, and in fact the way it was
implemented was buggy; if a filesystem which did not have the extents
feature flag was mounted -o extents, the filesystem would attempt to
create and use extents-based file even though the extents feature flag
was not eabled. The simplest thing to do is to nuke the mount option
entirely. It's not all that useful to force the non-creation of new
extent-based files if the filesystem can support it.

NLM provides file locking services for NFS files. Part of this service
includes a second protocol, known as NSM, which is a reboot
notification service. NLM uses this service to determine when to
reclaim locks or enter a grace period after a client or server reboots.
The NLM service (implemented by lockd in the Linux kernel) contacts
the local NSM service (implemented by rpc.statd in Linux user space)
via NSM protocol upcalls to register a callback when a particular
remote peer reboots.
To match the callback to the correct remote peer, the NLM service
constructs a cookie that it passes in the request. The NSM service
passes that cookie back to the NLM service when it is notified that
the given remote peer has indeed rebooted.
Currently on Linux, the cookie is the raw 32-bit IPv4 address of the
remote peer. To support IPv6 addresses, which are larger, we could
use all 16 bytes of the cookie to represent a full IPv6 address,
although we still can't represent an IPv6 address with a scope ID in
just 16 bytes.
Instead, to avoid the need for future changes to support additional
address types, we'll use a manufactured value for the cookie, and use
that to find the corresponding nsm_handle struct in the kernel during
the NLMPROC_SM_NOTIFY callback.
This should provide complete support in the kernel's NSM
implementation for IPv6 hosts, while remaining backwards compatible
with older rpc.statd implementations.
Note we also deal with another case where nsm_use_hostnames can change
while there are outstanding notifications, possibly resulting in the
loss of reboot notifications. After this patch, the priv cookie is
always used to lookup rebooted hosts in the kernel.

The NLM XDR decoders for the NLMPROC_SM_NOTIFY procedure should treat
their "priv" argument truly as an opaque, as defined by the protocol,
and let the upper layers figure out what is in it.
This will make it easier to modify the contents and interpretation of
the "priv" argument, and keep knowledge about what's in "priv" local
to fs/lockd/mon.c.
For now, the NLM and NSM implementations should behave exactly as they
did before.
The formation of the address of the rebooted host in
nlm_host_rebooted() may look a little strange, but it is the inverse
of how nsm_init_private() forms the private cookie. Plus, it's
going away soon anyway.

The nsm_find() function sets up fresh nsm_handle entries. This is
where we will store the "priv" cookie used to lookup nsm_handles during
reboot recovery. The cookie will be constructed when nsm_find()
creates a new nsm_handle.
As much as possible, I would like to keep everything that handles a
"priv" cookie in fs/lockd/mon.c so that all the smarts are in one
source file. That organization should make it pretty simple to see how
all this works.
To me, it makes more sense than the current arrangement to keep
nsm_find() with nsm_monitor() and nsm_unmonitor().
So, start reorganizing by moving nsm_find() into fs/lockd/mon.c. The
nsm_release() function comes along too, since it shares the nsm_lock
global variable.

The nsm_handle's reference count is bumped in nlm_lookup_host(). It
should be decremented in nlm_destroy_host() to make it easier to see
the balance of these two operations.
Move the nsm_release() call to fs/lockd/host.c.
The h_nsmhandle pointer is set in nlm_lookup_host(), and never cleared.
The nlm_destroy_host() function is never called for the same nlm_host
twice, so h_nsmhandle won't ever be NULL when nsm_unmonitor() is
called.
All references to the nlm_host are gone before it is freed. We can
skip making h_nsmhandle NULL just before the nlm_host is deallocated.
It's also likely we can remove the h_nsmhandle NULL check in
nlmsvc_is_client() as well, but we can do that later when rearchitect-
ing the nlm_host cache.

The nsm_monitor() function reports an error and does not set sm_monitored
if the SM_MON upcall reply has a non-zero result code, but nsm_monitor()
does not return an error to its caller in this case.
Since sm_monitored is not set, the upcall is retried when the next NLM
request invokes nsm_monitor(). However, that may not come for a while.
In the meantime, at least one NLM request will potentially proceed
without the peer being monitored properly.
Have nsm_monitor() return an error if the result code is non-zero.
This will cause all NLM requests to fail immediately if the upcall
completed successfully but rpc.statd returned an error.
This may be inconvenient in some cases (for example if rpc.statd
cannot complete a proper DNS reverse lookup of the hostname), but will
make the reboot monitoring service more robust by forcing such issues
to be corrected by an admin.
