We cannot rely on buffer dirty bits during fsync because pdflush can come
before fsync is called and clear dirty bits without forcing a transaction
commit. What we do is that we track which transaction has last changed
the inode and which transaction last changed allocation and force it to
disk on fsync.

On a 256M 4k block filesystem, doing this in a loop:
dd if=/dev/zero of=test oflag=direct bs=1M count=64
rm -f test
eventually leads to spurious ENOSPC:
dd: writing `test': No space left on device
As with other block allocation callers, it looks like we need to
potentially retry the allocations on the initial ENOSPC.
A similar patch went into ext4 (commit
fbbf694566)

The icache may also contain aliases so we must account for them just
like we do when manipulating the dcache. We usually get away with
aliases in the icache because the instructions that are read from memory
are read-only, i.e. they never change. However, the place where this
bites us is when the code has been modified.

This fixes an -rc1 regression brought by the commit:
1cf58fa840 ("nilfs2: shorten freeze
period due to GC in write operation v3").
Although the patch moved out a function call of
nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() to nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments() from
nilfs_ioctl_prepare_clean_segments(), it didn't move corresponding
cleanup job needed for the error case.
This will move the missing cleanup job to the destination function.

This fixes a kernel oops reported by Markus Trippelsdorf in the email
titled "[NILFS users] kernel Oops while running nilfs_cleanerd".
The oops was caused by a bug of error path in
nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks() function, which was inlined in
nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments().
nilfs_ioctl_move_blocks checks duplication of blocks which will be
moved in garbage collection. But, the check should have be done
within nilfs_ioctl_move_inode_block() to prevent list corruption among
buffers storing the target blocks.
To fix the kernel oops, this moves forward the duplication check
before the list insertion.
I also tested this for stable trees [2.6.30, 2.6.31].

On older kernels, e.g. 2.6.27, a WARN_ON dump in rtmsg_ifinfo()
is thrown when the CAN device is registered due to insufficient
skb space, as reported by various users. This patch adds the
rtnl_link_ops "get_size" to fix the problem. I think this patch
is required for more recent kernels as well, even if no WARN_ON
dumps are triggered. Maybe we also need "get_xstats_size" for
the CAN xstats.

bcm_proc_getifname() is called with RTNL and dev_base_lock
not held. It calls __dev_get_by_index() without locks, and
this is illegal (might crash)
Close the race by holding dev_base_lock and copying dev->name
in the protected section.
