This patch passes the file handle supplied in iattr to userspace, in case the
->setattr() was invoked from sys_ftruncate().  This solves the permission
checking (or lack thereof) in ftruncate() for the class of filesystems served
by an unprivileged userspace process.

This patch adds an atomic create+open operation.  This does not yet work if

Add a new access call, which will only be called if ->permission is invoked

This patch extends the iattr structure with a file pointer memeber, and adds
an ATTR_FILE validity flag for this member.

This is set if do_truncate() is invoked from ftruncate() or from
do_coredump().

The change is source and binary compatible.

AIO was adding a new context's max requests to the global total before
testing if that resulting total was over the global limit.  This let
innocent tasks get their new limit tested along with a racing guilty task
that was crossing the limit.  This serializes the _nr accounting with a
spinlock It also switches to using unsigned long for the global totals.
Individual contexts are still limited to an unsigned int's worth of
requests by the syscall interface.

The problem and fix were verified with a simple program that spun creating
and destroying a context while holding on to another long lived context.
Before the patch a task creating a tiny context could get a spurious EAGAIN
if it raced with a task creating a very large context that overran the
limit.

 RFC 3530 states that for OPEN_DOWNGRADE "The share_access and share_deny
 bits specified must be exactly equal to the union of the share_access and
 share_deny bits specified for some subset of the OPENs in effect for
 current openowner on the current file.

 Setattr is currently violating the NFSv4 rules for OPEN_DOWNGRADE in that
 it may cause a downgrade from OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_BOTH to
 OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE despite the fact that there exists no open file
 with O_WRONLY access mode.

Cannot build XFS filesystem support as module with quota support.  It
works only when the XFS filesystem support is compiled into the kernel.
Menuconfig prevents from setting CONFIG_XFS_FS=m and CONFIG_XFS_QUOTA=y.

How to reproduce: configure the XFS filesystem with quota support as
module.  The resulting kernel won't have quota support compiled into
xfs.ko.

Fix: Changing the fs/xfs/Kconfig file from tristate to bool lets you
configure the quota support to be compiled into the XFS module.  The
Makefile-linux-2.6 checks only for CONFIG_XFS_QUOTA=y.
