This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about another 2% after the
first patch.

Before:
 avg = 462.286
 std = 5.46106

After:
 avg = 453.12
 std = 9.58257

(50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence)

It does this by introducing mnt_clone_write, which avoids some heavyweight
operations of mnt_want_write if called on a vfsmount which we know already
has a write count; and mnt_want_write_file, which can call mnt_clone_write
if the file is open for write.

After these two patches, mnt_want_write and mnt_drop_write go from 7% on
the profile down to 1.3% (including mnt_clone_write).

[AV: mnt_want_write_file() should take file alone and derive mnt from it;
not only all callers have that form, but that's the only mnt about which
we know that it's already held for write if file is opened for write]

This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about 8%. lat_mmap is set up
basically to mmap a 64MB file on tmpfs, fault in its pages, then unmap it.
A microbenchmark yes, but it exercises some important paths in the mm.

Before:
 avg = 501.9
 std = 14.7773

After:
 avg = 462.286
 std = 5.46106

(50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence, but there is quite
a bit of variation there still)

It does this by removing the complex per-cpu locking and counter-cache and
replaces it with a percpu counter in struct vfsmount. This makes the code
much simpler, and avoids spinlocks (although the msync is still pretty
costly, unfortunately). It results in about 900 bytes smaller code too. It
does increase the size of a vfsmount, however.

It should also give a speedup on large systems if CPUs are frequently operating
on different mounts (because the existing scheme has to operate on an atomic in
the struct vfsmount when switching between mounts). But I'm most interested in
the single threaded path performance for the moment.

[AV: minor cleanup]

New field: nd->root.  When pathname resolution wants to know the root,
check if nd->root.mnt is non-NULL; use nd->root if it is, otherwise
copy current->fs->root there.  After path_walk() is finished, we check
if we'd got a cached value in nd->root and drop it.  Before calling
path_walk() we should either set nd->root.mnt to NULL *or* copy (and
pin down) some path to nd->root.  In the latter case we won't be
looking at current->fs->root at all.

Split do_path_lookup(), opencode the call from do_filp_open()
do_filp_open() is the only caller of do_path_lookup() that
cares about root afterwards (it keeps resolving symlinks on
O_CREAT path after it'd done LOOKUP_PARENT walk).  So when
we start caching fs->root in path_walk(), it'll need a different
treatment.

fsnotify tells its listeners explicitly when an event happened on the given
inode verses on the child of the given inode.  (see __fsnotify_parent)
However, the semantics of fsnotify_move() are such that we deliver events
directly to the two parent directories in question (old_dir and new_dir)
directly without using the __fsnotify_parent() call.  fsnotify should be
adding FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD for the notifications to these parents.

This patch pins any inodes with an fsnotify mark in core.  The idea is that
as soon as the mark is removed from the inode->fsnotify_mark_entries list
the inode will be iput.  In reality is doesn't quite work exactly this way.
The igrab will happen when the mark is added to an inode, but the iput will
happen when the inode pointer is NULL'd inside the mark.

It's possible that 2 racing things will try to remove the mark from
different directions.  One may try to remove the mark because of an
explicit request and one might try to remove it because the inode was
deleted.  It's possible that the removal because of inode deletion will
remove the mark from the inode's list, but the removal by explicit request
will actually set entry->inode == NULL; and call the iput.  This is safe.

This patch creates a way for fsnotify groups to attach marks to inodes.
These marks have little meaning to the generic fsnotify infrastructure
and thus their meaning should be interpreted by the group that attached
them to the inode's list.

dnotify and inotify  will make use of these markings to indicate which
inodes are of interest to their respective groups.  But this implementation
has the useful property that in the future other listeners could actually
use the marks for the exact opposite reason, aka to indicate which inodes
it had NO interest in.

fsnotify is a backend for filesystem notification.  fsnotify does
not provide any userspace interface but does provide the basis
needed for other notification schemes such as dnotify.  fsnotify
can be extended to be the backend for inotify or the upcoming
fanotify.  fsnotify provides a mechanism for "groups" to register for
some set of filesystem events and to then deliver those events to
those groups for processing.

fsnotify has a number of benefits, the first being actually shrinking the size
of an inode.  Before fsnotify to support both dnotify and inotify an inode had

        unsigned long           i_dnotify_mask; /* Directory notify events */
        struct dnotify_struct   *i_dnotify; /* for directory notifications */
        struct list_head        inotify_watches; /* watches on this inode */
        struct mutex            inotify_mutex;  /* protects the watches list

But with fsnotify this same functionallity (and more) is done with just

        __u32                   i_fsnotify_mask; /* all events for this inode */
        struct hlist_head       i_fsnotify_mark_entries; /* marks on this inode */

That's right, inotify, dnotify, and fanotify all in 64 bits.  We used that
much space just in inotify_watches alone, before this patch set.

fsnotify object lifetime and locking is MUCH better than what we have today.
inotify locking is incredibly complex.  See 8f7b0ba1 as an example of
what's been busted since inception.  inotify needs to know internal semantics
of superblock destruction and unmounting to function.  The inode pinning and
vfs contortions are horrible.

no fsnotify implementers do allocation under locks.  This means things like
f04b30de which (due to an overabundance of caution) changes GFP_KERNEL to
GFP_NOFS can be reverted.  There are no longer any allocation rules when using
or implementing your own fsnotify listener.

fsnotify paves the way for fanotify.  In brief fanotify is a notification
mechanism that delivers the lisener both an 'event' and an open file descriptor
to the object in question.  This means that fanotify is pathname agnostic.
Some on lkml may not care for the original companies or users that pushed for
TALPA, but fanotify was designed with flexibility and input for other users in
mind.  The readahead group expressed interest in fanotify as it could be used
to profile disk access on boot without breaking the audit system.  The desktop
search groups have also expressed interest in fanotify as it solves a number
of the race conditions and problems present with managing inotify when more
than a limited number of specific files are of interest.  fanotify can provide
for a userspace access control system which makes it a clean interface for AV
vendors to hook without trying to do binary patching on the syscall table,
LSM, and everywhere else they do their things today.  With this patch series
fanotify can be implemented in less than 1200 lines of easy to review code.
Almost all of which is the socket based user interface.

This patch series builds fsnotify to the point that it can implement
dnotify and inotify_user.  Patches exist and will be sent soon after
acceptance to finish the in kernel inotify conversion (audit) and implement
fanotify.
