If we're only doing a single write, and there are no other unstable
writes being queued up, we might want to just flip to using a stable
write RPC call.

When a nfs_page is freed, nfs_free_request is called which also calls
nfs_clear_request to clean out the lock and open contexts and free the
pagecache page.

However, a couple of places in the nfs code call nfs_clear_request
themselves. What happens here if the refcount on the request is still high?
We'll be releasing contexts and freeing pointers while the request is
possibly still in use.

Remove those bare calls to nfs_clear_context. That should only be done when
the request is being freed.

Note that when doing this, we need to watch out for tests of req->wb_page.
Previously, nfs_set_page_tag_locked() and nfs_clear_page_tag_locked()
would check the value of req->wb_page to figure out if the page is mapped
into the nfsi->nfs_page_tree. We now indicate the page is mapped using
the new bit PG_MAPPED in req->wb_flags .

This patch fixes bugzilla entry 14501:
  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14501Signed-off-by: NTrond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Currently, if an unstable write completes, we cannot redirty the page in
order to reflect a new change in the page data until after we've sent a
COMMIT request.

This patch allows a page rewrite to proceed without the unnecessary COMMIT
step, putting it immediately back onto the dirty page list, undoing the
VM unstable write accounting, and removing the NFS_PAGE_TAG_COMMIT tag from
the NFS radix tree.

When processes are allowed to attempt to lock a non-contiguous range of nfs
write requests, it is possible for generic_writepages to 'wrap round' the
address space, and call writepage() on a request that is already locked by
the same process.

We avoid the deadlock by checking if the page index is contiguous with the
list of nfs write requests that is already held in our
nfs_pageio_descriptor prior to attempting to lock a new request.

Currently we do write coalescing in a very inefficient manner: one pass in
generic_writepages() in order to lock the pages for writing, then one pass
in nfs_flush_mapping() and/or nfs_sync_mapping_wait() in order to gather
the locked pages for coalescing into RPC requests of size "wsize".

In fact, it turns out there is actually a deadlock possible here since we
only start I/O on the second pass. If the user signals the process while
we're in nfs_sync_mapping_wait(), for instance, then we may exit before
starting I/O on all the requests that have been queued up.

If the writebacks are cancelled via nfs_cancel_dirty_list, or due to the
memory allocation failing in nfs_flush_one/nfs_flush_multi, then we must
ensure that the PG_writeback flag is cleared.

Also ensure that we actually own the PG_writeback flag whenever we
schedule a new writeback by making nfs_set_page_writeback() return the
value of test_set_page_writeback().
The PG_writeback page flag ends up replacing the functionality of the
PG_FLUSHING nfs_page flag, so we rip that out too.

We will want to allow nfs_writepage() to distinguish between pages that
have been marked as dirty by the VM, and those that have been marked as
dirty by nfs_updatepage().
In the former case, the entire page will want to be written out, and so any
requests that were pending need to be flushed out first.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
