Fix GFS2's need_sync()'s use of do_div() on an s64 by using div_s64() instead.
This does assume that gt_quota_scale_den can be cast to an s32.
This was introduced by patch b3b94faa5fe5968827ba0640ee9fba4b3e7f736e.

This patch removes the "recent list" which is used during allocation
and replaces it with the (already existing) mru list used during
deletion. The "recent list" was not a true mru list leading to a number
of inefficiencies including a "next" function which made scanning the
list an order N^2 operation wrt to the number of list elements.
This should increase allocation performance with large numbers of rgrps.
Its also a useful preparation and cleanup before some further changes
which are planned in this area.

We already allow local SH locks while we hold a cached EX glock, so here
we allow DF locks as well. This works only because we rely on the VFS's
invalidation for locally cached data, and because if we hold an EX lock,
then we know that no other node can be caching data relating to this
file.
It dramatically speeds up initial writes to O_DIRECT files since we fall
back to buffered I/O for this and would otherwise bounce between DF and
EX modes on each and every write call. The lessons to be learned from
that are to ensure that (for the time being anyway) O_DIRECT files are
preallocated and that they are written to using reasonably large I/O
sizes. Even so this change fixes that corner case nicely

There is a race in the delayed demote code where it does the wrong thing
if a demotion to UN has occurred for other reasons before the delay has
expired. This patch adds an assert to catch that condition as well as
fixing the root cause by adding an additional check for the UN state.

GFS2 calls permission() to verify permissions after locks on the files
have been taken.
For this it's sufficient to call gfs2_permission() instead. This
results in the following changes:
- IS_RDONLY() check is not performed
- IS_IMMUTABLE() check is not performed
- devcgroup_inode_permission() is not called
- security_inode_permission() is not called
IS_RDONLY() should be unnecessary anyway, as the per-mount read-only
flag should provide protection against read-only remounts during
operations. do_gfs2_set_flags() has been fixed to perform
mnt_want_write()/mnt_drop_write() to protect against remounting
read-only.
IS_IMMUTABLE has been added to gfs2_permission()
Repeating the security checks seems to be pointless, as they don't
normally change, and if they do, it's independent of the filesystem
state.

- Replace remote_llseek with generic_file_llseek_unlocked (to force compilation
failures in all users)
- Change all users to either use generic_file_llseek_unlocked directly or
take the BKL around. I changed the file systems who don't use the BKL
for anything (CIFS, GFS) to call it directly. NCPFS and SMBFS and NFS
take the BKL, but explicitely in their own source now.
I moved them all over in a single patch to avoid unbisectable sections.
Open problem: 32bit kernels can corrupt fpos because its modification
is not atomic, but they can do that anyways because there's other paths who
modify it without BKL.
Do we need a special lock for the pos/f_version = 0 checks?
Trond says the NFS BKL is likely not needed, but keep it for now
until his full audit.
v2: Use generic_file_llseek_unlocked instead of remote_llseek_unlocked
and factor duplicated code (suggested by hch)

I discovered that we had a list onto which every lock_dlm
lock was being put. Its only function was to discover whether
we'd got any locks left after umount. Since there was already
a counter for that purpose as well, I removed the list. The
saving is sizeof(struct list_head) per glock - well worth
having.

There are several reasons why this is undesirable:
1. It never happens during normal operation anyway
2. If it does happen it causes performance to be very, very poor
3. It isn't likely to solve the original problem (memory shortage
on remote DLM node) it was supposed to solve
4. It uses a bunch of arbitrary constants which are unlikely to be
correct for any particular situation and for which the tuning seems
to be a black art.
5. In an N node cluster, only 1/N of the dropped locked will actually
contribute to solving the problem on average.
So all in all we are better off without it. This also makes merging
the lock_dlm module into GFS2 a bit easier.

This patch fixes Red Hat bugzilla bug 450156.
This started with a not-too-improbable mount failure because the
locking protocol was never set back to its proper "lock_dlm" after the
system was rebooted in the middle of a gfs2_fsck. That left a
(purposely) invalid locking protocol in the superblock, which caused an
error when the file system was mounted the next time.
When there's an error mounting, vfs calls DQUOT_OFF, which calls
vfs_quota_off which calls gfs2_sync_fs. Next, gfs2_sync_fs calls
gfs2_log_flush passing s_fs_info. But due to the error, s_fs_info
had been previously set to NULL, and so we have the kernel oops.
My solution in this patch is to test for the NULL value before passing
it. I tested this patch and it fixes the problem.

The previous attempt to fix the locking in readpage failed due
to the use of a "try lock" which resulted in occasional high
cpu usage during testing (due to repeated tries) and also it
did not resolve all the ordering problems wrt the transaction
lock (although it did solve all the inode lock ordering problems).
This patch avoids the problem by unlocking the page and getting the
locks in the correct order. This means that we have to retest the
page to ensure that it hasn't changed when we relock the page.
This now passes the tests which were previously failing.

This patch merges the lock_nolock module into GFS2 itself. As well as removing
some of the overhead of the module, it also means that its now impossible to
build GFS2 without a lock module (which would be a pointless thing to do
anyway).
We also plan to merge lock_dlm into GFS2 in the future, but that is a more
tricky task, and will therefore be a separate patch.

This looks like a lot of change, but in fact its not. Mostly its
things moving from one file to another. The change is just that
instead of queuing lock completions and callbacks from the DLM
we now pass them directly to GFS2.
This gives us a net loss of two list heads per glock (a fair
saving in memory) plus a reduction in the latency of delivering
the messages to GFS2, plus we now have one thread fewer as well.
There was a bug where callbacks and completions could be delivered
in the wrong order due to this unnecessary queuing which is fixed
by this patch.

This patch implements a number of cleanups to the core of the
GFS2 glock code. As a result a lot of code is removed. It looks
like a really big change, but actually a large part of this patch
is either removing or moving existing code.
There are some new bits too though, such as the new run_queue()
function which is considerably streamlined. Highlights of this
patch include:
o Fixes a cluster coherency bug during SH -> EX lock conversions
o Removes the "glmutex" code in favour of a single bit lock
o Removes the ->go_xmote_bh() for inodes since it was duplicating
->go_lock()
o We now only use the ->lm_lock() function for both locks and
unlocks (i.e. unlock is a lock with target mode LM_ST_UNLOCKED)
o The fast path is considerably shortly, giving performance gains
especially with lock_nolock
o The glock_workqueue is now used for all the callbacks from the DLM
which allows us to simplify the lock_dlm module (see following patch)
o The way is now open to make further changes such as eliminating the two
threads (gfs2_glockd and gfs2_scand) in favour of a more efficient
scheme.
This patch has undergone extensive testing with various test suites
so it should be pretty stable by now.

This patch fixes bz 450641.
This patch changes the computation for zero_metapath_length(), which it
renames to metapath_branch_start(). When you are extending the metadata
tree, The indirect blocks that point to the new data block must either
diverge from the existing tree either at the inode, or at the first
indirect block. They can diverge at the first indirect block because the
inode has room for 483 pointers while the indirect blocks have room for
509 pointers, so when the tree is grown, there is some free space in the
first indirect block. What metapath_branch_start() now computes is the
height where the first indirect block for the new data block is located.
It can either be 1 (if the indirect block diverges from the inode) or 2
(if it diverges from the first indirect block).

This patch fixes a GFS2 filesystem consistency error reported from
function do_strip. The problem was caused by a timing window
that allowed two vfs inodes to be created in memory that point
to the same file. The problem is fixed by making the vfs's

in-core gfs2_inode structure while the vfs inode spin_lock is held.

GFS2 wasn't invalidating its cache before it called into the lock manager
with a request that could potentially drop a lock. This was leaving a
window where the lock could be actually be held by another node, but the
file's page cache would still appear valid, causing coherency problems.
This patch moves the cache invalidation to before the lock manager call
when dropping a lock. It also adds the option to the lock_dlm lock
manager to not use conversion mode deadlock avoidance, which, on a
conversion from shared to exclusive, could internally drop the lock, and
then reacquire in. GFS2 now asks lock_dlm to not do this. Instead, GFS2
manually drops the lock and reacquires it.

This version of the gfs2_bitfit algorithm includes the latest
suggestions from Steve Whitehouse. It is typically eight to
ten times faster than the version we're using today. If there
is a lot of metadata mixed in (lots of small files) the
algorithm is often 15 times faster, and given the right
conditions, I've seen peaks of 20 times faster.

This patch streamlines the quota checking in the "no quota" case by
making the check inline in the calling function, thus reducing the
number of function calls. Eventually we might be able to remove the
checks from the gfs2_quota_lock() and gfs2_quota_check() functions, but
currently we can't as there are a very few places in the code which need
to call these functions directly still.

We've supported mapping of extents when no block allocation is required
for some time. This patch extends that to mapping of extents when an
allocation has been requested. In that case we try to allocate as many
blocks as are requested, but we might return fewer in case there is
something preventing us from returning the complete amount (e.g. an
already allocated block is in the way).
Currently the only code path which can actually request multiple data
blocks in a single bmap call is the page_mkwrite path and even then it
only happens if there are multiple blocks per page. What this patch does
do however, is merge the allocation requests for metadata (growing the
metadata tree in either height or depth) with the allocation of the data
blocks in the case that both are needed. This results in lower overheads
even in the single block allocation case.
The one thing which we can't handle here at the moment is unstuffing. I
would like to be able to do that, but the problem which arises is that
in order to unstuff one has to get a locked page from the page cache
which results in locking problems in the (usual) case that the caller is
holding the page lock on the page it wishes to map. So that case will
have to be addressed in future patches.

We've previously been using a "try lock" in readpage on the basis that
it would prevent deadlocks due to the inverted lock ordering (our normal
lock ordering is glock first and then page lock). Unfortunately tests
have shown that this isn't enough. If the glock has a demote request
queued such that run_queue() in the glock code tries to do a demote when
its called under readpage then it will try and write out all the dirty
pages which requires locking them. This then deadlocks with the page
locked by readpage.
The solution is to always require two calls into readpage. The first
unlocks the page, gets the glock and returns AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE, the
second does the actual readpage and unlocks the glock & page as
required.
