2163b1e616 GFS2: Shrink the shrinker
This patch removes some of the special cases that the shrinker
was trying to deal with. As a result we leave fewer items on
the list and none at all which cannot be demoted. This makes
the list scanning more efficient and solves some issues seen
with large numbers of inodes.

d0b6e04a4c tracing/events: Move TRACE_SYSTEM outside of include guard
If TRACE_INCLDUE_FILE is defined, <trace/events/TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE.h>
will be included and compiled, otherwise it will be
<trace/events/TRACE_SYSTEM.h>

So TRACE_SYSTEM should be defined outside of #if proctection,
just like TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE.

Imaging this scenario:

 #include <trace/events/foo.h>
    -> TRACE_SYSTEM == foo
 ...
 #include <trace/events/bar.h>
    -> TRACE_SYSTEM == bar
 ...
 #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
 #include <trace/events/foo.h>
    -> TRACE_SYSTEM == bar !!!

and then bar.h will be included and compiled.

Follow-up to "block: enable by default support for large devices
and files on 32-bit archs".

Rename CONFIG_LBD to CONFIG_LBDAF to:
- allow update of existing [def]configs for "default y" change
- reflect that it is used also for large files support nowadays

63997775b7 GFS2: Add tracepoints
This patch adds the ability to trace various aspects of the GFS2
filesystem. The trace points are divided into three groups,
glocks, logging and bmap. These points have been chosen because
they allow inspection of the major internal functions of GFS2
and they are also generic enough that they are unlikely to need
any major changes as the filesystem evolves.

6cfd014842 push BKL down into ->put_super
Move BKL into ->put_super from the only caller.  A couple of
filesystems had trivial enough ->put_super (only kfree and NULLing of
s_fs_info + stuff in there) to not get any locking: coda, cramfs, efs,
hugetlbfs, omfs, qnx4, shmem, all others got the full treatment.  Most
of them probably don't need it, but I'd rather sort that out individually.
Preferably after all the other BKL pushdowns in that area.

[AV: original used to move lock_super() down as well; these changes are
removed since we don't do lock_super() at all in generic_shutdown_super()
now]
[AV: fuse, btrfs and xfs are known to need no damn BKL, exempt]

f6eb53498e GFS2: Remove args subdir from gfs2 sysfs files
Since we can cat /proc/mounts there is no need to have this
subdirectory in the gfs2 sysfs files. In fact this does not
reflect the full range of possible mount argumenmts, where
as /proc/mounts does.

There was only one userland user of this set of sysfs files
and it will function perfectly well without these files
being present (in fact that subcommand of gfs2_tool is
obsolete anyway).

The tune/* subdirectory is also considered mostly obsolete,
but there are a few uses of this until mount arguments can
be added for the last few functions for which there are no
equivalents currently. However the tune/* directory is still
in my sights and new code should avoid using it. Only the gfs2_quota
and gfs2_tool programs are know to use tune/* at the moment.

e1defc4ff0 block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size
Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case.  The
sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
512-bytes.  Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
and the logical ditto.

This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size.

This patch increases the frequency with which gfs2 looks

60a0b8f936 GFS2: Add a rgrp bitmap full flag
During block allocation, it is useful to know if sections of disk
are full on a finer grained basis than a single resource group.
This can make a performance difference when resource groups have
larger numbers of bitmap blocks, since we no longer have to search
them all block by block in each individual bitmap.

The full flag is set on a per-bitmap basis when it has been
searched and found to have no free space. It is then skipped in
subsequent searches until the flag is reset. The resetting
occurs if we have to drop the glock on the resource group for any
reason, or if we deallocate some blocks within that resource
group and thus free up some space.

0901097834 GFS2: Improve resource group error handling
This patch improves the error handling in the case where we
discover that the summary information in the resource group
doesn't match the bitmap information while in the process of
allocating blocks. Originally this resulted in a kernel bug,
but this patch changes that so that we return -EIO and print
some messages explaining what went wrong, and how to fix it.

We also remember locally not to try and allocate from the
same rgrp again, so that a subsequent allocation in a
different rgrp should succeed.

fe64d517df GFS2: Umount recovery race fix
This patch fixes a race condition where we can receive recovery
requests part way through processing a umount. This was causing
problems since the recovery thread had already gone away.

Looking in more detail at the recovery code, it was really trying
to implement a slight variation on a work queue, and that happens to
align nicely with the recently introduced slow-work subsystem. As a
result I've updated the code to use slow-work, rather than its own home
grown variety of work queue.

When using the wait_on_bit() function, I noticed that the wait function
that was supplied as an argument was appearing in the WCHAN field, so
I've updated the function names in order to produce more meaningful
output.

48bf2b1711 GFS2: Something nonlinear this way comes!
For some reason GFS2 has been missing support for non-linear
mappings. This patch fixes that, and also avoids taking any
locks for mmap in the O_NOATIME case. In fact we don't actually need
to take the lock here at all - just doing file_accessed() would be
enough, but we have to take the lock eventually and this helps
it hit disk (and thus be seen by other nodes) faster.

code. Also I've managed to squash another call to ll_rw_block()
along the way.

There is still one part of the GFS2 I/O paths which are not correctly
annotated and that is due to the sharing of the writeback code between
the data and metadata address spaces. I would like to change that too,
but this patch is still worth doing on its own, I think.

c2ec175c39 mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match fault
Change the page_mkwrite prototype to take a struct vm_fault, and return
VM_FAULT_xxx flags.  There should be no functional change.

This makes it possible to return much more detailed error information to
the VM (and also can provide more information eg.  virtual_address to the
driver, which might be important in some special cases).

This is required for a subsequent fix.  And will also make it easier to
merge page_mkwrite() with fault() in future.

ce3b0f8d5c New helper - current_umask()
current->fs->umask is what most of fs_struct users are doing.
Put that into a helper function.
