Pekka Enberg pointed out that double error handlings found after
nilfs_transaction_end() can be avoided by separating abort operation:

 OK, I don't understand this. The only way nilfs_transaction_end() can
 fail is if we have NILFS_TI_SYNC set and we fail to construct the
 segment. But why do we want to construct a segment if we don't commit?

 I guess what I'm asking is why don't we have a separate
 nilfs_transaction_abort() function that can't fail for the erroneous
 case to avoid this double error value tracking thing?

This does the separation and renames nilfs_transaction_end() to
nilfs_transaction_commit() for clarification.

Since, some calls of these functions were used just for exclusion control
against the segment constructor, they are replaced with semaphore
operations.

This is another patch for fixing the following problems of a memory
copy function in nilfs2 ioctl:

(1) It tries to allocate 128KB size of memory even for small objects.

(2) Though the function repeatedly tries large memory allocations
    while reducing the size, GFP_NOWAIT flag is not specified.
    This increases the possibility of system memory shortage.

(3) During the retries of (2), verbose warnings are printed
    because _GFP_NOWARN flag is not used for the kmalloc calls.

The first patch was still doing large allocations by kmalloc which are
repeatedly tried while reducing the size.

Andi Kleen told me that using copy_from_user for large memory is not
good from the viewpoint of preempt latency:

He also advised me that:

For the function in question, the size of buffer memory can be reduced
since the buffer is repeatedly used for a number of small objects.  On
the other hand, it may incur large preempt latencies for larger buffer
because a copy_from_user (and a copy_to_user) was applied only once
each cycle.

With that, this revision uses the order 0 allocations with
__get_free_pages() to fix the original problems.

where WB_SYNC_NONE in do_sync_mapping_range() was replaced with
WB_SYNC_ALL by Nick's patch (commit:
ee53a891).

This fixes the problem by letting nilfs_writepages() write out the log of
file data within the range if sync_mode is WB_SYNC_ALL.

This involves removal of nilfs_file_aio_write() which was previously
needed to ensure O_SYNC sync writes.

This adds common routines for buffer/page operations used in B-tree
node caches, meta data files, or segment constructor (log writer).

NILFS uses copy functions for buffers and pages due to the following
reasons:

 1) Relocation required for COW
    Since NILFS changes address of on-disk blocks, moving buffers
    in page cache is needed for the buffers which are not addressed
    by a file offset.  If buffer size is smaller than page size,
    this involves partial copy of pages.

 2) Freezing mmapped pages
    NILFS calculates checksums for each log to ensure its validity.
    If page data changes after the checksum calculation, this validity
    check will not work correctly.  To avoid this failure for mmaped
    pages, NILFS freezes their data by copying.

 3) Copy-on-write for DAT pages
    NILFS makes clones of DAT page caches in a copy-on-write manner
    during GC processes, and this ensures atomicity and consistency
    of the DAT in the transient state.

In addition, NILFS uses two obsolete functions, nilfs_mark_buffer_dirty()
and nilfs_clear_page_dirty() respectively.

* nilfs_mark_buffer_dirty() was required to avoid NULL pointer
  dereference faults:

  Since the page cache of B-tree node pages or data page cache of pseudo
  inodes does not have a valid mapping->host, calling mark_buffer_dirty()
  for their buffers causes the fault; it calls __mark_inode_dirty(NULL)
  through __set_page_dirty().

* nilfs_clear_page_dirty() was needed in the two cases:

 1) For B-tree node pages and data pages of the dat/gcdat, NILFS2 clears
    page dirty flags when it copies back pages from the cloned cache
    (gcdat->{i_mapping,i_btnode_cache}) to its original cache
    (dat->{i_mapping,i_btnode_cache}).

 2) Some B-tree operations like insertion or deletion may dispose buffers
    in dirty state, and this needs to cancel the dirty state of their
    pages.  clear_page_dirty_for_io() caused faults because it does not
    clear the dirty tag on the page cache.
