We must remove the request from whatever list it is currently on before we
can add it to the dirty list.

If the writebacks are cancelled via nfs_cancel_dirty_list, or due to the
memory allocation failing in nfs_flush_one/nfs_flush_multi, then we must
ensure that the PG_writeback flag is cleared.
Also ensure that we actually own the PG_writeback flag whenever we
schedule a new writeback by making nfs_set_page_writeback() return the
value of test_set_page_writeback().
The PG_writeback page flag ends up replacing the functionality of the
PG_FLUSHING nfs_page flag, so we rip that out too.

The current NFS client congestion logic is severly broken, it marks the
backing device congested during each nfs_writepages() call but doesn't
mirror this in nfs_writepage() which makes for deadlocks. Also it
implements its own waitqueue.
Replace this by a more regular congestion implementation that puts a cap on
the number of active writeback pages and uses the bdi congestion waitqueue.
Also always use an interruptible wait since it makes sense to be able to
SIGKILL the process even for mounts without 'intr'.

ClearPageUptodate() will just cause races here. What we really want to do
is to invalidate the page cache.

The tk_pid field is an unsigned short. The proper print format specifier for
that type is %5u, not %4d.
Also clean up some miscellaneous print formatting nits.

Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache.
The patch was generated using the following script:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
#
set -e
for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do
quilt add $file
sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$
mv /tmp/$$ $file
quilt refresh
done
The script was run like this
sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache"

There is now no reason to account for the dirty pages in the NFS code,
since the VM code will now do it for us via __set_page_dirty_nobuffers(),
and set_page_writeback().
We still need to keep the accounting of stable writes, though.

This will ensure that we can call set_page_writeback() from within
nfs_writepage(), which is always called with the page lock set.

We will want to allow nfs_writepage() to distinguish between pages that
have been marked as dirty by the VM, and those that have been marked as
dirty by nfs_updatepage().
In the former case, the entire page will want to be written out, and so any
requests that were pending need to be flushed out first.

Maintaining two parallel ways of doing synchronous writes is rather
pointless. This patch gets rid of the legacy nfs_writepage_sync(), and
replaces it with the faster asynchronous writes.

We always ensure that the nfs_open_context holds a reference to the dentry,
so the test in nfs_writepage() for whether or not the inode is referenced
is redundant.

This will allow fast lookup of the nfs_page from the struct page instead of
having to search the radix tree.
