There's currently an open Ubuntu bug[0], with the intent to compile NFS_FSCACHE
(and possibly AFS_FSCACHE, 9P_FSCACHE) into the standard Ubuntu kernel.
However, since *_FSCACHE still depends on EXPERIMENTAL, this won't happen.
As Arjan van de Ven pointed out[1], the EXPERIMENTAL flag doesn't mean that
much any more, I propose the following patch to fs/nfs/Kconfig. I'd do the
same for fs/9p/Kconfig and fs/afs/Kconfig, but as I did not test 9p or AFS, I
feel it would not be appropriate for me to remove the flag.

The bast mode that appears in the debugfs output should be
useful on both master and process nodes. lkb_highbast is
currently printed, and is only useful on the master node.
lkb_bastmode is only useful on the process node. This
patch sets lkb_bastmode on the master node as well, and
uses that value in the debugfs print.

When the lock master processes a successful operation (request,
convert, cancel, or unlock), it will process the effects of the
change before sending the reply for the operation. The "effects"
of the operation are:
- blocking callbacks (basts) for any newly granted locks
- waiting or converting locks that can now be granted
The cast is queued on the local node when the reply from the lock
master is received. This means that a lock holder can receive a
bast for a lock mode that is doesn't yet know has been granted.

When both blocking and completion callbacks are queued for lock,
the dlm would always deliver the completion callback (cast) first.
In some cases the blocking callback (bast) is queued before the
cast, though, and should be delivered first. This patch keeps
track of the order in which they were queued and delivers them
in that order.
This patch also keeps track of the granted mode in the last cast
and eliminates the following bast if the bast mode is compatible
with the preceding cast mode. This happens when a remotely mastered
lock is demoted, e.g. EX->NL, in which case the local node queues
a cast immediately after sending the demote message. In this way
a cast can be queued for a mode, e.g. NL, that makes an in-transit
bast extraneous.

cachefiles_delete_object() can race with rename. It gets the parent directory
of the object it's asked to delete, then locks it - but rename may have changed
the object's parent between the get and the completion of the lock.
However, if such a circumstance is detected, we abandon our attempt to delete
the object - since it's no longer in the index key path, it won't be seen
again by lookups of that key. The assumption is that cachefilesd may have
culled it by renaming it to the graveyard for later destruction.

There is currently a bug in sysfs_sd_setattr inherited from
sysfs_setattr in 2.6.32 where the first time we set the attributes
on a sysfs file we allocate backing store but do not set the
backing store attributes. Resulting in overly restrictive
permissions on sysfs files.
The fix is to simply modify the code so that it always executes
when we update the sysfs attributes, as we did in 2.6.31 and earlier.

The cached read and write paths initialize fattr->time_start in their
setup procedures. The value of fattr->time_start is propagated to
read_cache_jiffies by nfs_update_inode(). Subsequent calls to
nfs_attribute_timeout() will then use a good time stamp when
computing the attribute cache timeout, and squelch unneeded GETATTR
calls.
Since the direct I/O paths erroneously leave the inode's
fattr->time_start field set to zero, read_cache_jiffies for that inode
is set to zero after any direct read or write operation. This
triggers an otw GETATTR or ACCESS call to update the file's attribute
and access caches properly, even when the NFS READ or WRITE replies
have usable post-op attributes.
Make sure the direct read and write setup code performs the same fattr
initialization as the cached I/O paths to prevent unnecessary GETATTR
calls.
This was likely introduced by commit 0e574af1 in 2.6.15, which appears
to add new nfs_fattr_init() call sites in the cached read and write
paths, but not in the equivalent places in fs/nfs/direct.c. A
subsequent commit in the same series, 33801147, introduces the
fattr->time_start field.
Interestingly, the direct write reschedule path already has a call to
nfs_fattr_init() in the right place.

When we wait for an inode through reiserfs_iget(), we hold
the reiserfs lock. And waiting for an inode may imply waiting
for its writeback. But the inode writeback path may also require
the reiserfs lock, which leads to a deadlock.
We just need to release the reiserfs lock from reiserfs_iget()
to fix this.

Commit e22f628395 introduced a build
breakage for ARM devtree work: the THIS_MODULE macro was added, but we
don't have module.h
This change adds the necessary #include to get THIS_MODULE defined.
While we could just replace it with NULL (PROC_FS is a bool, not a
tristate), using THIS_MODULE will prevent unexpected breakage if we
ever do compile this as a module.

My test do: fallocate a big file and do write. The file is 512M, but
after file write is done btrfs-debug-tree shows:

extent data disk byte 1103101952 nr 536870912

If we have a pinned inode it must have a log item attached to it.
Usually that log item will have ili_last_lsn already set, in which
case we only need to flush the log up to that LSN instead of doing a
full log force. This gives speedups of about 5% in some fsync heavy
workloads.

file_remove_suid already calls into ->setattr to clear the suid and
sgid bits if needed, no need to start a second transaction to do it
ourselves.
Note that xfs_write_clear_setuid issues a sync transaction while the
path through ->setattr doesn't, but that is consistant with the
other filesystems.
