POSIX requires that ctime and mtime, as reported by the stat(2) call,
reflect the activity of the most recent write(2).  To that end, nfs_getattr()
flushes pending dirty writes to a file before doing a GETATTR to allow the
NFS server to set the file's size, ctime, and mtime properly.

However, nfs_getattr() can be starved when a constant stream of application
writes to a file prevents nfs_wb_nocommit() from completing.  This usually
results in hangs of programs doing a stat against an NFS file that is being
written.  "ls -l" is a common victim of this behavior.

To prevent starvation, hold the file's i_mutex in nfs_getattr() to
freeze applications writes temporarily so the client can more quickly obtain
clean values for a file's size, mtime, and ctime.

The nfs_wcc_update_inode() function omits logic to convert the type of
the NFS on-the-wire value of a file's size (__u64) to the type of file
size value stored in struct inode (loff_t, which is signed).

Everywhere else in the NFS client I checked already correctly converts the
file size type.

This effects only very large files.

The transport layer should do that itself whenever appropriate.

xprt_disconnect in xprt_rdma_close().
For TCP sockets, we want to call xprt_disconnect() only after the
connection has been closed by both ends.

By using shutdown() rather than close() we allow the RPC client to wait
for the TCP close handshake to complete before we start trying to reconnect
using the same port.
We use shutdown(SHUT_WR) only instead of shutting down both directions,
however we wait until the server has closed the connection on its side.

Signed-off-by: NTrond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Currently the TCP rebinding logic assumes that if we're not using a
reserved port, then we don't need to reconnect on the same port if a
disconnection event occurs. This breaks most RPC duplicate reply cache
implementations.

Also take into account the fact that xprt_min_resvport and
xprt_max_resvport may change while we're reconnecting, since the user may
change them at any time via the sysctls. Ensure that we check the port
boundaries every time we loop in xs_bind4/xs_bind6. Also ensure that if the
boundaries change, we only scan the ports a maximum of 2 times.
