The LAYOUTCOMMIT operation means different things to different layout types.
For blocks and objects, it is both a data and metadata consistency operation.
For files and flexfiles, it is only a metadata consistency operation.
This patch separates out the 2 cases, allowing the files/flexfiles layout
drivers to optimise away the data consistency calls to layoutcommit.

Use of synchronize_rcu() when unmounting and potentially freeing a lot
of deviceids is problematic. There really is no reason why we can't just
use kfree_rcu() here.

Let it return current nfs_pgio_mirror in use depending on pg_mirror_count.
For read, we always use pg_mirrors[0], so this effectively gives us freedom
to use pg_mirror_idx to track the actual mirror to read from through out the
IO stack.

This patch adds mirrored write support to the pgio layer. The default
is to use one mirror, but pgio callers may define callbacks to change
this to any value up to the (arbitrarily selected) limit of 16.
The basic idea is to break out members of nfs_pageio_descriptor that cannot
be shared between mirrored DSes and put them in a new structure.

This is needed to support mirrored writes - the first write can't just
trash the lseg, we need to keep it around until all mirrors have
written.

The kbuild test robot complained about a new sparse warning in
objio_alloc_deviceid_node, but it turns out that this was just a moved
reference to an existing variable. Fix it to have the right big endian
annotated type.
Note that there are some other endianess issues in this file that I didn't
bother to sort out as they involve global headers.

Add support to the common pNFS core to issue GETDEVICEINFO calls on
a device ID cache miss. The code is taken from the well debugged
file layout implementation and calls out to the layoutdriver through
a new alloc_deviceid_node method. The calling conventions for
nfs4_find_get_deviceid are changed so that all information needed to
send a GETDEVICEINFO request is passed to the common code.

Remove duplicate writeverf structure from merge of nfs_pgio_header and

struct nfs_pgio_data only exists as a member of nfs_pgio_header, but is
passed around everywhere, because there used to be multiple _data structs
per _header. Many of these functions then use the _data to find a pointer
to the _header. This patch cleans this up by merging the nfs_pgio_data
structure into nfs_pgio_header and passing nfs_pgio_header around instead.

Now that pg_test can change the size of the request (by returning a non-zero
size smaller than the request), pg_test functions that call other
pg_test functions must return the minimum of the result - or 0 if any fail.
Also clean up the logic of some pg_test functions so that all checks are
for contitions where coalescing is not possible.

This is a step toward allowing pg_test to inform the the
coalescing code to reduce the size of requests so they may fit in
whatever scheme the pg_test callback wants to define.
For now, just return the size of the request if there is space, or 0
if there is not. This shouldn't change any behavior as it acts
the same as when the pg_test functions returned bool.

For buffer write, block layout client scan inode mapping to find
next hole and use offset-to-hole as layoutget length. Object
layout client uses offset-to-isize as layoutget length.
For direct write, both block layout and object layout use dreq->bytes_left.

Depending on layout and ARCH, ORE has some limits on max IO sizes
which is communicated on (what else) ore_layout->max_io_length,
which is always stripe aligned.
This was considered as the pg_test boundary for splitting and starting
a new IO.
But in the case of a long IO where the start offset is not aligned
what would happen is that both end of IO[N] and start of IO[N+1]
would be unaligned, causing each IO boundary parity unit to be
calculated and written twice.
So what we do in this patch is split the very start of an unaligned
IO, up to a stripe boundary, and then next IO's can continue fully
aligned til the end.
We might be sacrificing the case where the full unaligned IO would
fit within a single max_io_length, but the sacrifice is well worth
the elimination of double calculation and parity units IO.
Actually the sacrificing is marginal and is almost unmeasurable.
TODO:
If we know the total expected linear segment that will
be received, at pg_init, we could use that information
in many places:
1. blocks-layout get_layout write segment size
2. Better mds-threshold
3. In above situation for a better clean split
I will do this in future submission.

It is very common for the end of the file to be unaligned on
stripe size. But since we know it's beyond file's end then
the XOR should be preformed with all zeros.
Old code used to just read zeros out of the OSD devices, which is a great
waist. But what scares me more about this situation is that, we now have
pages attached to the file's mapping that are beyond i_size. I don't
like the kind of bugs this calls for.
Fix both birds, by returning a global zero_page, if offset is beyond
i_size.
TODO:
Change the API to ->__r4w_get_page() so a NULL can be
returned without being considered as error, since XOR API
treats NULL entries as zero_pages.
[Bug since 3.2. Should apply the same way to all Kernels since]
