read response is returned on a forcedirectio mount.

The cifs session setup code has three cases, and a fourth for backlevel
LANMAN2 style session setup needed to be added. This new session setup
implmentation will eventually replace the other three and should be
easier to read while fixing a few minor problems (not setting
the LARGE READ/WRITEX flags when NTLMSSP was negotiated for example) and
adding support for NTLMv2 (which will be added with the next patch. In the
meantime, this code is marked in an CONFIG_CIFS_EXPERIMENTAL block and will
not be turned on by default until it is tested against more server types.

typically - header + 13 pages).
Forgetting to set wsize on the mount command costs more than 10% on large
write (can be much more) so this makes a saner default. We still shrink
this default smaller if server can not support it.

Fix Samba bugzilla bug 3301
In share mode encrypted password must be sent on tree connection (in our
case only the NTLM password is sent, not the older LANMAN one).

from server when mount forcedirectio.
Allowing update of file size with non forcedirectio mounts should be
allowed in the fiture but requires carefully writing out the
last page in the local file if it is a partial page in order to
avoid corruption and careful serialization
Thanks to Maximiliano Curia who suggested similar changes and provided
a testcase.

ICC likes to complain about storage class not being first, GCC doesn't
care much (except for cases like "inline static").

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.

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.

patch 2ea55c01e0 fixed CIFS clobbering the
global fops structure for some per mount setting, by duplicating and having
2 fops structs. However the write to the fops was left behind, which is a
NOP in practice (due to the fact that we KNOW the fops has that field set
to NULL already due to the duplication). So remove it... In addition, another
instance of the same bug was forgotten in november.
