commit fe1668ae5b causes kernel to oops with
libhugetlbfs test suite. The problem is that hugetlb pages can be shared
by multiple mappings. Multiple threads can fight over page->lru in the
unmap path and bad things happen. We now serialize __unmap_hugepage_range
to void concurrent linked list manipulation. Such serialization is also
needed for shared page table page on hugetlb area. This patch will fixed
the bug and also serve as a prepatch for shared page table.

Since commit d1807793e1 we dereference a NULL
pointer. Coverity id #1432. We set journal to NULL, and use it directly
afterwards.

This patch moves code out of fs/xattr.c:listxattr into a new function -
vfs_listxattr. The code for vfs_listxattr was originally submitted by Bill
Nottingham <notting@redhat.com> to Unionfs.
Sorry about that. The reason for this submission is to make the
listxattr code in fs/xattr.c a little cleaner (as well as to clean up
some code in Unionfs.)
Currently, Unionfs has vfs_listxattr defined in its code. I think
that's very ugly, and I'd like to see it (re)moved. The logical place
to put it, is along side of all the other vfs_*xattr functions.
Overall, I think this patch is benefitial for both kernel.org kernel and
Unionfs.

We should pass "wait_event_interruptible()" the wait-queue itself, not
the pointer to it. The magic macro will pointerize it internally.

Commit ca4aa09635 fixed waiting for the
structure to get initialised, but it is also possible to break out of
the loop while still in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE.
Replace the whole thing by wait_event_interruptible, which is much more
readable, and doesn't suffer from these problems.

NFS_CS_INITING > NFS_CS_READY, so instead of waiting for the structure to
get initialised, we currently immediately jump out of the loop without ever
sleeping.
