Al Viro pointed out that I broke some acl functionality...
* ACLs could not be fully removed
* posix_acl_chmod would be called while the old ACL was still cached
* new mode propagated to orangefs server before ACL.
... when I tried to make sure that modes that got changed as a
result of ACL-sets would be sent back to the orangefs server.
Not wanting to try and change the code without having some cases to
test it with, I began to hunt for setfacl examples that were expressible
in pure mode. Along the way I found examples like the following
which confused me:
user A had a file (/home/A/asdf) with mode 740
user B was in user A's group
user C was not in user A's group
setfacl -m u:C:rwx /home/A/asdf
The above setfacl caused ls -l /home/A/asdf to show a mode of 770,
making it appear that all users in user A's group now had full access
to /home/A/asdf, however, user B still only had read acces. Madness.
Anywho, I finally found that the above (whacky as it is) appears to
be "posixly on purpose" and explained in acl(5):
If the ACL has an ACL_MASK entry, the group permissions correspond
to the permissions of the ACL_MASK entry.

orangefs: convert get_user_pages() --> pin_user_pages()
orangefs: remove redundant assignment to variable ret
This code was using get_user_pages*(), in a "Case 1" scenario
(Direct IO), using the categorization from [1]. That means that it's
time to convert the get_user_pages*() + put_page() calls to
pin_user_pages*() + unpin_user_pages() calls.
There is some helpful background in [2]: basically, this is a small
part of fixing a long-standing disconnect between pinning pages, and
file systems' use of those pages.

Christoph Hellwig noticed that we were doing some unnecessary
work in orangefs_flush:
orangefs_flush just writes out data on every close(2) call. There is
no need to change anything about the dirty state, especially as
orangefs doesn't treat I_DIRTY_TIMES special in any way. The code
seems to come from partially open coding vfs_fsync.
He sent in a patch with the above commit message and also a
patch that was a reversion of another Orangefs patch I had
sent upstream a while ago. I had to fix his reversion patch
so that it would compile which caused his "don't mess with
I_DIRTY_TIMES" patch to fail to apply. So here I have just
remade his patch and applied it after the fixed reversion patch.

Christoph Hellwig sent in a reversion of "orangefs: remember count
when reading." because:
->read_iter calls can race with each other and one or
more ->flush calls. Remove the the scheme to store the read
count in the file private data as is is completely racy and
can cause use after free or double free conditions
Christoph's reversion caused Orangefs not to work or to compile. I
added a patch that fixed that, but intel's kbuild test robot pointed
out that sending Christoph's patch followed by my patch upstream, it
would break bisection because of the failure to compile. So I have
combined the reversion plus my patch... here's the commit message
that was in my patch:
Logically, optimal Orangefs "pages" are 4 megabytes. Reading
large Orangefs files 4096 bytes at a time is like trying to
kick a dead whale down the beach. Before Christoph's "Revert
orangefs: remember count when reading." I tried to give users
a knob whereby they could, for example, use "count" in
read(2) or bs with dd(1) to get whatever they considered an
appropriate amount of bytes at a time from Orangefs and fill
as many page cache pages as they could at once.
Without the racy code that Christoph reverted Orangefs won't
even compile, much less work. So this replaces the logic that
used the private file data that Christoph reverted with
a static number of bytes to read from Orangefs.
I ran tests like the following to determine what a
reasonable static number of bytes might be:
dd if=/pvfsmnt/asdf of=/dev/null count=128 bs=4194304
dd if=/pvfsmnt/asdf of=/dev/null count=256 bs=2097152
dd if=/pvfsmnt/asdf of=/dev/null count=512 bs=1048576
.
.
.
dd if=/pvfsmnt/asdf of=/dev/null count=4194304 bs=128
Reads seem faster using the static number, so my "knob code"
wasn't just racy, it wasn't even a good idea...

Orangefs has no open, and orangefs checks file permissions
on each file access. Posix requires that file permissions
be checked on open and nowhere else. Orangefs-through-the-kernel
needs to seem posix compliant.
The VFS opens files, even if the filesystem provides no
method. We can see if a file was successfully opened for
read and or for write by looking at file->f_mode.
When writes are flowing from the page cache, file is no
longer available. We can trust the VFS to have checked
file->f_mode before writing to the page cache.
The mode of a file might change between when it is opened
and IO commences, or it might be created with an arbitrary mode.
We'll make sure we don't hit EACCES during the IO stage by
using UID 0. Some of the time we have access without changing
to UID 0 - how to check?

Pull orangefs updates from Mike Marshall:
"A fix and a cleanup.
The fix: way back in the stone age (2003) mode was set to the magic
number "755" in what is now fs/orangefs/namei.c(orangefs_symlink).
Łukasz Wrochna reported it and Artur Świgoń sent in a patch to change
it to octal. Maybe it shouldn't be a magic number at all but rather
something like "S_IRWXU | S_IRGRP | S_IXGRP | S_IROTH | S_IXOTH"...
cleanup: Colin Ian King found a redundant assignment and sent in a
patch to remove it"
[ And no, octal numbers for permissions are a lot more legible than a
binary 'or' of some line noise macros. So 0755 is preferred over
trying to spell it out using "helpful" macros - Linus ]

This file has its own proper style, except that, after a while,
the coding style gets violated and whitespaces are placed on
different ways.
As Sphinx and ReST are very sentitive to whitespace differences,
I had to opt if each entry after required/mandatory/... fields
should start with zero spaces or with a tab. I opted to start them
all from the zero position, in order to avoid needing to break lines
with more than 80 columns, with would make harder for review.
Most of the other changes at porting.rst were made to use an unified
notation with works nice as a text file while also produce a good html
output after being parsed.

Create a generic function to check incoming FS_IOC_SETFLAGS flag values
and later prepare the inode for updates so that we can standardize the
implementations that follow ext4's flag values.
Note that the efivarfs implementation no longer fails a no-op SETFLAGS
without CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE since that's the behavior in ext*.
