In cache_defer_req, 'dreq' is used for two significantly different
values that happen to be of the same type.
This is both confusing, and makes it hard to extend the range of one of
the values as we will in the next patch.
So introduce 'discard' to take one of the values.

Using list_del_init is generally safer than list_del, and it will
allow us, in a subsequent patch, to see if an entry has already been
processed or not.

The extra call to cache_revisit_request in cache_fresh_unlocked is not
needed, as should have been fairly clear at the time of
commit 4013edea9a
If there are requests to be revisited, then we can be sure that
CACHE_PENDING is set, so the second call is sufficient.
So remove the first call.
Then remove the 'new' parameter,
then remove the return value for cache_fresh_locked which is only used
to provide the value for 'new'.

As "cache_defer_req" does not sound like a predicate, having it return
a boolean value can be confusing. It is more consistent to return
0 for success and negative for error.
Exactly what error code to return is not important as we don't
differentiate between reasons why the request wasn't deferred,
we only care about whether it was deferred or not.

Otherwise we Oops if the module containing the cache detail is removed
before all cache readers have closed the file.

For events that are rare, such as referral DNS lookups, it makes limited
sense to have a daemon constantly listening for upcalls on a channel. An
alternative in those cases might simply be to run the app that fills the
cache using call_usermodehelper_exec() and friends.
The following patch allows the cache_detail to specify alternative upcall
mechanisms for these particular cases.

While we do want to protect against multiple concurrent readers and writers
on each upcall/downcall pipe, we don't want to limit concurrent reading and
writing to separate caches.
This patch therefore replaces the static buffer 'write_buf', which can only
be used by one writer at a time, with use of the page cache as the
temporary buffer for downcalls. We still fall back to using the the old
global buffer if the downcall is larger than PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, since this is
apparently needed by the SPKM security context initialisation.
It then replaces the use of the global 'queue_io_mutex' with the
inode->i_mutex in cache_read() and cache_write().

Also ensure that we destroy those files before we destroy the cache_detail.
Otherwise, user processes might attempt to write into uninitialised caches.

If cache_defer_req did not leave the request on a queue, then it could
possibly have waited long enough that the cache became valid. So check the
status after the call.

While deferred requests normally get revisited quite quickly,
it is possible for a request to remain in the deferral queue
when the cache item is discarded. We can easily make sure that
doesn't happen by calling cache_revisit_request just before
the final 'put'.
Also there is a small chance that a race would cause one thread to
defer a request against a cache item while another thread is failing
to queue an upcall for that item. So when the upcall fails, make
sure to revisit all deferred requests.

'loose' was a mis-spelling of 'lose', and even that wasn't a good
word choice.

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.
We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.
But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.
->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.
rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.
Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
So, let's nuke it.
Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

Newer server features such as nfsv4 and gss depend on proc to work, so a
failure to initialize the proc files they need should be treated as
fatal.
Thanks to Andrew Morton for style fix and compile fix in case where
CONFIG_NFSD_V4 is undefined.

Just some minor cleanup.
Also I don't see much point in trying to register further proc entries
if initial entries fail; so just stop trying in that case.
