The retry block in ecryptfs_readdir() has been in the eCryptfs code base
for a while, apparently for no good reason. This loop could potentially
run without terminating. This patch removes the loop, instead erroring
out if vfs_readdir() on the lower file fails.

This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser
tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in
all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst
exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble.
This was posted for review some time ago and I believe its been in -mm
since then.

With SLUB debugging turned on in 2.6.26, I was getting memory corruption
when testing eCryptfs. The root cause turned out to be that eCryptfs was
doing kmalloc(PAGE_CACHE_SIZE); virt_to_page() and treating that as a nice
page-aligned chunk of memory. But at least with SLUB debugging on, this
is not always true, and the page we get from virt_to_page does not
necessarily match the PAGE_CACHE_SIZE worth of memory we got from kmalloc.
My simple testcase was 2 loops doing "rm -f fileX; cp /tmp/fileX ." for 2
different multi-megabyte files. With this change I no longer see the
corruption.

Kmem cache passed to constructor is only needed for constructors that are
themselves multiplexeres. Nobody uses this "feature", nor does anybody uses
passed kmem cache in non-trivial way, so pass only pointer to object.
Non-trivial places are:

There is no good reason to immediately open the lower file, and that can
cause problems with files that the user does not intend to immediately
open, such as device nodes.
This patch removes the persistent file open from the interpose step and
pushes that to the locations where eCryptfs really does need the lower
persistent file, such as just before reading or writing the metadata
stored in the lower file header.
Two functions are jumping to out_dput when they should just be jumping to
out on error paths. This patch also fixes these.

When creating device nodes, eCryptfs needs to delay actually opening the lower
persistent file until an application tries to open. Device handles may not be
backed by anything when they first come into existence.

The userspace eCryptfs daemon sends HELO and QUIT messages to the kernel
for per-user daemon (un)registration. These messages are required when
netlink is used as the transport, but (un)registration is handled by
opening and closing the device file when miscdev is the transport. These
messages should be discarded in the miscdev transport so that a daemon
isn't registered twice.

eCryptfs would really like to have read-write access to all files in the
lower filesystem. Right now, the persistent lower file may be opened
read-only if the attempt to open it read-write fails. One way to keep
from having to do that is to have a privileged kthread that can open the
lower persistent file on behalf of the user opening the eCryptfs file;
this patch implements this functionality.
This patch will properly allow a less-privileged user to open the eCryptfs
file, followed by a more-privileged user opening the eCryptfs file, with
the first user only being able to read and the second user being able to
both read and write. eCryptfs currently does this wrong; it will wind up
calling vfs_write() on a file that was opened read-only. This is fixed in
this patch.

The page decrypt calls in ecryptfs_write() are both pointless and buggy.
Pointless because ecryptfs_get_locked_page() has already brought the page
up to date, and buggy because prior mmap writes will just be blown away by
the decrypt call.
This patch also removes the declaration of a now-nonexistent function
ecryptfs_write_zeros().
Thanks to Eric Sandeen and David Kleikamp for helping to track this
down.
