Thanks to Roland who pointed out de_thread() issues.
Currently we add sub-threads to ->real_parent->children list. This buys
nothing but slows down do_wait().
With this patch ->children contains only main threads (group leaders).
The only complication is that forget_original_parent() should iterate over
sub-threads by hand, and de_thread() needs another list_replace() when it
changes ->group_leader.
Henceforth do_wait_thread() can never see task_detached() && !EXIT_DEAD
tasks, we can remove this check (and we can unify do_wait_thread() and
ptrace_do_wait()).
This change can confuse the optimistic search in mm_update_next_owner(),
but this is fixable and minor.
Perhaps badness() and oom_kill_process() should be updated, but they
should be fixed in any case.

It can happen that write does not use all the blocks allocated in
write_begin either because of some filesystem error (like ENOSPC) or
because page with data to write has been removed from memory. We truncate
these blocks so that we don't have dangling blocks beyond i_size.

This reverts commit e4c570c4cb, as
requested by Alexey:
"I think I gave a good enough arguments to not merge it.
To iterate:
* patch makes impossible to start using ext3 on EXT3_FS=n kernels
without reboot.
* this is done only for one pointer on task_struct"
None of config options which define task_struct are tristate directly
or effectively."

This reverts commit e9496ff46a. Quoth Al:
"it's dependent on a lot of other stuff not currently in mainline
and badly broken with current fs/namespace.c. Sorry, badly
out-of-order cherry-pick from old queue.
PS: there's a large pending series reworking the refcounting and
lifetime rules for vfsmounts that will, among other things, allow to
rip a subtree away _without_ dissolving connections in it, to be
garbage-collected when all active references are gone. It's
considerably saner wrt "is the subtree busy" logics, but it's nowhere
near being ready for merge at the moment; this changeset is one of the
things becoming possible with that sucker, but it certainly shouldn't
have been picked during this cycle. My apologies..."

We recently go rid of all callers of do_sync_file_range as they're better
served with vfs_fsync or the filemap_write_and_wait. Now that
do_sync_file_range is down to a single caller fold it into it so that people
don't start using it again accidentally. While at it also switch it from
using __filemap_fdatawrite_range(..., WB_SYNC_ALL) to the more clear
filemap_fdatawrite_range().

Filesystems outside the regular namespace do not have to clear DCACHE_UNHASHED
in order to have a working /proc/$pid/fd/XXX. Nothing in proc prevents the
fd link from being used if its dentry is not in the hash.
Also, it does not get put into the dcache hash if DCACHE_UNHASHED is clear;
that depends on the filesystem calling d_add or d_rehash.
So delete the misleading comments and needless code.

XFS: Free buffer pages array unconditionally

Commit 3d1e4631 ("get rid of init_file()") removed the export of
alloc_file() -- possibly inadvertently, since that commit mainly
consisted of deleting the lines between the end of alloc_file() and
the start of the code in init_file().
There is in fact one modular use of alloc_file() in the tree, in
drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c, so re-add the export to fix:
ERROR: "alloc_file" [drivers/infiniband/core/ib_uverbs.ko] undefined!

Trivial conflicts in fs/direct-io.c
The code in xfs_free_buf() only attempts to free the b_pages array if the
buffer is a page cache backed or page allocated buffer. The extra log buffer
that is used when the log wraps uses pages that are allocated to a different
log buffer, but it still has a b_pages array allocated when those pages
are associated to with the extra buffer in xfs_buf_associate_memory.
Hence we need to always attempt to free the b_pages array when tearing
down a buffer, not just on buffers that are explicitly marked as page bearing
buffers. This fixes a leak detected by the kernel memory leak code.

Change all async metadata buffers to use [READ|WRITE]_META I/O types
so that the I/O doesn't get issued immediately. This allows merging of
adjacent metadata requests but still prioritises them over bulk data.
This shows a 10-15% improvement in sequential create speed of small
files.
Don't include the log buffers in this classification - leave them as
sync types so they are issued immediately.
