Test plan:

15ce4a0c1c NFS: Replace atomic_t variables in nfs_direct_req with a single spin lock
Three atomic_t variables cause a lot of bus locking.  Because they are all
used in the same places in the code, just use a single spin lock.

Now that the atomic_t variables are gone, we can remove the request size
limitation since the code no longer depends on the limited width of atomic_t
on some platforms.

9eafa8cc52 NFS: support EIOCBQUEUED return in direct write path
For async iocb's, the NFS direct write path now returns EIOCBQUEUED,
and calls aio_complete when all the requested writes are finished.  The
synchronous part of the NFS direct write path behaves exactly as it
was before.

Shared mapped NFS files will have some coherency difficulties when
accessed concurrently with aio+dio.  Will need to explore how this
is handled in the local file system case.

462d5b3296 NFS: make direct write path generate write requests concurrently
Duplicate infrastructure from direct read path that will allow write
path to generate multiple write requests concurrently.  This will
enable us to add support for aio in this path.

Temporarily we will lose the ability to do UNSTABLE writes followed by
a COMMIT in the direct write path.  However, all applications I am
aware of that use NFS O_DIRECT currently write in relatively small
chunks, so this should not be inconvenient in any way.

788e7a89a0 NFS: Cleanup of NFS write code in preparation for asynchronous o_direct
This patch inverts the callback hierarchy for NFS write calls.

Instead of having the NFSv2/v3/v4-specific code set up the RPC callback
ops, we allow the original caller to do so. This allows for more
flexibility w.r.t. how to set up and tear down the nfs_write_data
structure while still allowing the NFSv3/v4 code to perform error
handling.

The greater flexibility is needed by the asynchronous O_DIRECT code, which
wants to be able to hold on to the original nfs_write_data structures after
the WRITE RPC call has completed in order to be able to replay them if the
COMMIT call determines that the server has rebooted.

8dc7c3115b locks,lockd: fix race in nlmsvc_testlock
posix_test_lock() returns a pointer to a struct file_lock which is unprotected
and can be removed while in use by the caller.  Move the conflicting lock from
the return to a parameter, and copy the conflicting lock.

In most cases the caller ends up putting the copy of the conflicting lock on
the stack.  On i386, sizeof(struct file_lock) appears to be about 100 bytes.
We're assuming that's reasonable.

1e7cb3dc12 NFS: directory trace messages
Reuse NFSDBG_DIRCACHE and NFSDBG_LOOKUPCACHE to provide additional
diagnostic messages that trace the operation of the NFS client's
directory behavior.  A few new messages are now generated when NFSDBG_VFS

provides better trace debugging for those who use pre-built kernels,
without adding a lot of extra noise to the standard debug settings.

see different types of trace messages with each flag setting.

and truncation at the page level due to the fact that nfs_sync_inode()

This means that it is possible to be flushing out data (and calling something
like set_page_writeback()) while the page cache is busy evicting the page.

are always written back to storage before we evict them.

143f412eb4 [PATCH] NFS: Fix a potential panic in O_DIRECT
Based on an original patch by Mike O'Connor and Greg Banks of SGI.

Mike states:

A normal user can panic an NFS client and cause a local DoS with
'judicious'(?) use of O_DIRECT.  Any O_DIRECT write to an NFS file where the
user buffer starts with a valid mapped page and contains an unmapped page,
will crash in this way.  I haven't followed the code, but O_DIRECT reads with
similar user buffers will probably also crash albeit in different ways.

Details: when nfs_get_user_pages() calls get_user_pages(), it detects and
correctly handles get_user_pages() returning an error, which happens if the
first page covered by the user buffer's address range is unmapped.  However,
if the first page is mapped but some subsequent page isn't, get_user_pages()
will return a positive number which is less than the number of pages requested
(this behaviour is sort of analagous to a short write() call and appears to be
intentional).  nfs_get_user_pages() doesn't detect this and hands off the
array of pages (whose last few elements are random rubbish from the newly
allocated array memory) to it's caller, whence they go to
nfs_direct_write_seg(), which then totally ignores the nr_pages it's given,
and calculates its own idea of how many pages are in the array from the user
buffer length.  Needless to say, when it comes to transmit those uninitialised
page* pointers, we see a crash in the network stack.

fc33a7bb9c [PATCH] per-mountpoint noatime/nodiratime
Turn noatime and nodiratime into per-mount instead of per-sb flags.

After all the preparations this is a rather trivial patch.  The mount code
needs to treat the two options as per-mount instead of per-superblock, and
touch_atime needs to be changed to check the new MNT_ flags in addition to
the MS_ flags that are kept for filesystems that are always
noatime/nodiratime but not user settable anymore.  Besides that core code
only nfs needed an update because it's leaving atime updates to the server
and thus sets the S_NOATIME flag on every inode, but needs to know whether
it's a real noatime mount for an getattr optimization.

While we're at it I've killed the IS_NOATIME/IS_NODIRATIME macros that were
only used by touch_atime.

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.

21b6bf143d [PATCH] nfsroot: do not silently stop parsing on an unknown option
It would be helpful if the kernel did not silently stop parsing
nfs options, but instead warned about any he does not recognize. The
attached patch adds one printk to do just that.

It took me a couple of hours to find my configuration mistake.

28fd129827 [PATCH] Fix and add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait)
This patch add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait) and use it.

See mm/filemap.c:

And changes the filemap_write_and_wait() and filemap_write_and_wait_range().

Current filemap_write_and_wait() doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite()
returns error.  However, even if filemap_fdatawrite() returned an
error, it may have submitted the partially data pages to the device.
(e.g. in the case of -ENOSPC)

<quotation>
Andrew Morton writes,

If filemap_fdatawrite() returns an error, this might be due to some
I/O problem: dead disk, unplugged cable, etc.  Given the generally
crappy quality of the kernel's handling of such exceptions, there's a
good chance that the filemap_fdatawait() will get stuck in D state
forever.
</quotation>

So, this patch doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite() returns the -EIO.

Trond, could you please review the nfs part?  Especially I'm not sure,
nfs must use the "filemap_fdatawrite(inode->i_mapping) == 0", or not.
