afs_vol_interest objects represent the volume IDs currently being accessed
from a fileserver. These hold lists of afs_cb_interest objects that
repesent the superblocks using that volume ID on that server.
When a callback notification from the server telling of a modification by
another client arrives, the volume ID specified in the notification is
looked up in the server's afs_vol_interest list. Through the
afs_cb_interest list, the relevant superblocks can be iterated over and the
specific inode looked up and marked in each one.
Make the following efficiency improvements:
(1) Hold rcu_read_lock() over the entire processing rather than locking it
each time.
(2) Do all the callbacks for each vid together rather than individually.
Each volume then only needs to be looked up once.
(3) afs_vol_interest objects are now stored in an rb_tree rather than a
flat list to reduce the lookup step count.
(4) afs_vol_interest lookup is now done with RCU, but because it's in an
rb_tree which may rotate under us, a seqlock is used so that if it
changes during the walk, we repeat the walk with a lock held.
With this and the preceding patch which adds RCU-based lookups in the inode
cache, target volumes/vnodes can be taken without the need to take any
locks, except on the target itself.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
