The problem.  When implementing a network namespace I need to be able
to have multiple network devices with the same name.  Currently this
is a problem for /sys/class/net/*, /sys/devices/virtual/net/*, and
potentially a few other directories of the form /sys/ ... /net/*.

What this patch does is to add an additional tag field to the
sysfs dirent structure.  For directories that should show different
contents depending on the context such as /sys/class/net/, and
/sys/devices/virtual/net/ this tag field is used to specify the
context in which those directories should be visible.  Effectively
this is the same as creating multiple distinct directories with
the same name but internally to sysfs the result is nicer.

I am calling the concept of a single directory that looks like multiple
directories all at the same path in the filesystem tagged directories.

For the networking namespace the set of directories whose contents I need
to filter with tags can depend on the presence or absence of hotplug
hardware or which modules are currently loaded.  Which means I need
a simple race free way to setup those directories as tagged.

To achieve a reace free design all tagged directories are created
and managed by sysfs itself.

Users of this interface:
- define a type in the sysfs_tag_type enumeration.
- call sysfs_register_ns_types with the type and it's operations
- sysfs_exit_ns when an individual tag is no longer valid

- Implement mount_ns() which returns the ns of the calling process
  so we can attach it to a sysfs superblock.
- Implement ktype.namespace() which returns the ns of a syfs kobject.

Everything else is left up to sysfs and the driver layer.

For the network namespace mount_ns and namespace() are essentially
one line functions, and look to remain that.

Tags are currently represented a const void * pointers as that is
both generic, prevides enough information for equality comparisons,
and is trivial to create for current users, as it is just the
existing namespace pointer.

The work needed in sysfs is more extensive.  At each directory
or symlink creating I need to check if the directory it is being
created in is a tagged directory and if so generate the appropriate
tag to place on the sysfs_dirent.  Likewise at each symlink or
directory removal I need to check if the sysfs directory it is
being removed from is a tagged directory and if so figure out
which tag goes along with the name I am deleting.

Currently only directories which hold kobjects, and
symlinks are supported.  There is not enough information
in the current file attribute interfaces to give us anything
to discriminate on which makes it useless, and there are
no potential users which makes it an uninteresting problem
to solve.

I had hopped to avoid this but the bonding driver adds a file
to /sys/class/net/  and the easiest way to handle that file is
to make it untagged and to register it only once.

It turns out that holding an active reference on a directory is
pointless.  The purpose of the active references are to allows us to
block when removing sysfs entries that have custom methods so we don't
remove modules while running modular code and to keep those custom
methods from accessing data structures after the files have been
removed.  Further sysfs_remove_dir remove all elements in the
directory before removing the directory itself, so there is no chance
we will remove a directory with active children.

Holding locks over device_del -> kobject_del -> sysfs_deactivate can
cause deadlocks if those same locks are grabbed in sysfs show or store
methods.

The I model s_active count + completion as a sleeping read/write lock.
I describe to lockdep sysfs_get_active as a read_trylock,
sysfs_put_active as a read_unlock, and sysfs_deactivate as a
write_lock and write_unlock pair.  This seems to capture the essence
for purposes of finding deadlocks, and in my testing gives finds real
issues and ignores non-issues.

This brings us back to holding locks over kobject_del is a problem
that ideally we should find a way of addressing, but at least lockdep
can tell us about the problems instead of requiring developers to debug
rare strange system deadlocks, that happen when sysfs files are removed
while being written to.

This patch adds a setxattr handler to the file, directory, and symlink
inode_operations structures for sysfs. The patch uses hooks introduced in the
previous patch to handle the getting and setting of security information for
the sysfs inodes. As was suggested by Eric Biederman the struct iattr in the
sysfs_dirent structure has been replaced by a structure which contains the
iattr, secdata and secdata length to allow the changes to persist in the event
that the inode representing the sysfs_dirent is evicted. Because sysfs only
stores this information when a change is made all the optional data is moved
into one dynamically allocated field.

This patch addresses an issue where SELinux was denying virtd access to the PCI
configuration entries in sysfs. The lack of setxattr handlers for sysfs
required that a single label be assigned to all entries in sysfs. Granting virtd
access to every entry in sysfs is not an acceptable solution so fine grained
labeling of sysfs is required such that individual entries can be labeled
appropriately.

Modify sysfs bin files so that we can remove the bin file while they are
still mapped.  When the kobject is removed we unmap the bin file and
arrange for future accesses to the mapping to receive SIGBUS.

Implementing this prevents a nasty DOS when pci devices are hot plugged
and unplugged.  Where if any of their resources were mmaped the kernel
could not free up their pci resources or release their pci data
structures.

sysfs: sysfs_add_one WARNs with full path to duplicate filename

As a debugging aid, it can be useful to know the full path to a
duplicate file being created in sysfs.

We now will display warnings such as:

	sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/foo'

when attempting to create multiple files named 'foo' in the sysfs
root, or:

	sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/bus/pci/slots/5/foo'

when attempting to create multiple files named 'foo' under a
given directory in sysfs.

The path displayed is always a relative path to sysfs_root. The
leading '/' in the path name refers to the sysfs_root mount
point, and should not be confused with the "real" '/'.

Support sysfs_notify from atomic context with new sysfs_notify_dirent

sysfs_notify currently takes sysfs_mutex.
This means that it cannot be called in atomic context.
sysfs_mutex  is sometimes held over a malloc (sysfs_rename_dir)
so it can block on low memory.

In md I want to be able to notify on a sysfs attribute from
atomic context, and I don't want to block on low memory because I
could be in the writeout path for freeing memory.

So:
 - export the "sysfs_dirent" structure along with sysfs_get, sysfs_put
   and sysfs_get_dirent so I can get the sysfs_dirent that I want to
   notify on and hold it in an md structure.
 - split sysfs_notify_dirent out of sysfs_notify so the sysfs_dirent
   can be notified on with no blocking (just a spinlock).

Also, to avoid possible races, the create link should be done before the

Sysfs file poll implementation is scattered over sysfs and kobject.
Event numbering is done in sysfs_dirent but wait itself is done on
kobject.  This not only unecessarily bloats both kobject and
sysfs_dirent but is also buggy - if a sysfs_dirent is removed while
there still are pollers, the associaton betwen the kobject and
sysfs_dirent breaks and kobject may be freed with the pollers still
sleeping on it.

This patch moves whole poll implementation into sysfs_open_dirent.
Each time a sysfs_open_dirent is created, event number restarts from 1
and pollers sleep on sysfs_open_dirent.  As event sequence number is
meaningless without any open file and pollers should have open file
and thus sysfs_open_dirent, this ephemeral event counting works and is
a saner implementation.

This patch fixes the dnagling sleepers bug and reduces the sizes of
kobject and sysfs_dirent by one pointer.
