Provide an internal interface for the removal of arbitrary file regions.

ocfs2_remove_inode_range() takes a byte range within a file and will remove
existing extents within that range. Partial clusters will be zeroed so that
any read from within the region will return zeros.
Signed-off-by: NMark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

The partial cluster zeroing code used during truncate usually assumes that
the rightmost byte in the range to be zeroed lies on a cluster boundary.
This makes sense for truncate, but punching holes might require zeroing on
non-aligned rightmost boundaries.

Add code to the btree paths to support the removal of arbitrary regions
within an existing extent. With proper higher level support this can be used
to "punch holes" in a file. Truncate (a special case of hole punching) could
also be converted to use these methods.

This can now be trivially supported with re-use of our existing extend code.

ocfs2_allocate_unwritten_extents() takes a start offset and a byte length
and iterates over the inode, adding extents (marked as unwritten) until len
is reached. Existing extents are skipped over.

Update the write code to detect when the user is asking to write to an
unwritten extent. Like writing to a hole, we must zero the region between
the write and the cluster boundaries. Most of the existing cluster zeroing
logic can be re-used with some additional checks for the unwritten flag on
extent records.

Writes to a region marked as unwritten might result in a record split or

Now that we have a method to deallocate blocks from them, each node should

Deallocation of suballocator blocks, most notably extent blocks, might
involve multiple suballocator inodes.

The locking for this can get extremely complicated, especially when the
suballocator inodes to delete from aren't known until deep within an
unrelated codepath.

Implement a simple scheme for recording the blocks to be unlinked so that
the actual deallocation can be done in a context which won't deadlock.

ocfs2 mounts require a heartbeat region.  Use the new configfs_depend_item()
facility to actually depend on them so they can't go away from under us.

First, teach cluster/nodemanager.c to depend an item on the o2cb subsystem.
Then teach o2hb_register_callbacks to take a UUID and depend on the
appropriate region.  Finally, teach all users of o2hb to pass a UUID or
NULL if they don't require a pin.

Sometimes other drivers depend on particular configfs items.  For
example, ocfs2 mounts depend on a heartbeat region item.  If that
region item is removed with rmdir(2), the ocfs2 mount must BUG or go
readonly.  Not happy.

This provides two additional API calls: configfs_depend_item() and
configfs_undepend_item().  A client driver can call
configfs_depend_item() on an existing item to tell configfs that it is
depended on.  configfs will then return -EBUSY from rmdir(2) for that
item.  When the item is no longer depended on, the client driver calls
configfs_undepend_item() on it.

These API cannot be called underneath any configfs callbacks, as
they will conflict.  They can block and allocate.  A client driver
probably shouldn't calling them of its own gumption.  Rather it should
be providing an API that external subsystems call.

How does this work?  Imagine the ocfs2 mount process.  When it mounts,
it asks for a heart region item.  This is done via a call into the
heartbeat code.  Inside the heartbeat code, the region item is looked
up.  Here, the heartbeat code calls configfs_depend_item().  If it
succeeds, then heartbeat knows the region is safe to give to ocfs2.
If it fails, it was being torn down anyway, and heartbeat can gracefully
pass up an error.

Add a notification callback, ops->disconnect_notify(). It has the same
prototype as ->drop_item(), but it will be called just before the item
linkage is broken. This way, configfs users who want to do work while
the object is still in the heirarchy have a chance.

Client drivers will still need to config_item_put() in their
->drop_item(), if they implement it.  They need do nothing in
->disconnect_notify().  They don't have to provide it if they don't
care.  But someone who wants to be notified before ci_parent is set to
NULL can now be notified.

Configfs being based upon sysfs code, config_group_find_obj() is probably
so named because of the similar kset_find_obj() in sysfs. However,
"kobject"s in sysfs become "config_item"s in configfs, so let's call it
config_group_find_item() instead, for sake of uniformity, and make
corresponding change in the users of this function.

BTW a crucial difference between kset_find_obj and config_group_find_item
is in locking expectations. kset_find_obj does its locking by itself, but
config_group_find_item expects the *caller* to do the locking. The reason
for this: kset's have their own locks, config_group's don't but instead
rely on the subsystem mutex. And, subsystem needn't necessarily be around
when config_group_find_item() is called.

So let's state these locking semantics explicitly, and rectify the comment,
otherwise bugs could continue to occur in future, as they did in the past
(refer commit d82b8191e238 in gfs2-2.6-fixes.git).

1. item.c:config_item_cleanup() is a private function (only called by
config_item_release() in same file). However, it is spuriously
exported in include/linux/configfs.h, so remove that export and make
it static in item.c. Also, it is no longer exported / interface
function, so no need to give comment for this function (the comment
was stating obvious thing, anyway).

2. Kernel-doc comment format does not allow empty line between end of
comment and start of function (declaration line). There were several
such spurious empty lines in item.c, so fix them.

The attribute store/show code currently limits attributes at PAGE_SIZE.
This code comes from sysfs, where it still works that way.

However, PAGE_SIZE is not constant.  A 16k attribute string works on
ia64 but not on x86.  Really a subsystem shouldn't allow different
attribute sizes based on platform.

As such, limit all simple attributes to 4k.  This works on all
platforms, and is consistent with all current code.

This patch removes xip_file_sendfile, the sendfile implementation for
xip without replacement. Those customers that use xip on s390 are not
using sendfile() as far as we know, and so far s390 is the only platform
this could potentially be used on so far.
Having sendfile is not a popular feature for execute in place file
systems, however we have a working implementation of splice_read() based
on fs/splice.c if anyone asks for it.
At this point in time, it does not seem preferable to merge
splice_read() for xip because it causes extra maintenence effort due to
code duplication and it requires struct page behind the xip memory
segment. We'd like to get rid of that in favor of supporting flash based
