This bug could cause oopses and page state corruption, because ncpfs
used the generic page-cache symlink handlign functions. But those
functions only work if the page cache is guaranteed to be "stable", ie a
page that was installed when the symlink walk was started has to still
be installed in the page cache at the end of the walk.
We could have fixed ncpfs to not use the generic helper routines, but it
is in many ways much cleaner to instead improve on the symlink walking
helper routines so that they don't require that absolute stability.
We do this by allowing "follow_link()" to return a error-pointer as a
cookie, which is fed back to the cleanup "put_link()" routine. This
also simplifies NFS symlink handling.

Down the road we want to eliminate the use of the global kernel lock entirely
from the NFS client. To do this, we need to protect the fields in the
nfs_inode structure adequately. Start by serializing updates to the
"cache_validity" field.
Note this change addresses an SMP hang found by njw@osdl.org, where processes
deadlock because nfs_end_data_update and nfs_revalidate_mapping update the
"cache_validity" field without proper serialization.
Test plan:
Millions of fsx ops on SMP clients. Run Nick Wilson's breaknfs program on
large SMP clients.

Introduce atomic bitops to manipulate the bits in the nfs_inode structure's
"flags" field.
Using bitops means we can use a generic wait_on_bit call instead of an ad hoc
locking scheme in fs/nfs/inode.c, so we can remove the "nfs_i_wait" field from
nfs_inode at the same time.
The other new flags field will continue to use bitmask and logic AND and OR.
This permits several flags to be set at the same time efficiently. The
following patch adds a spin lock to protect these flags, and this spin lock
will later cover other fields in the nfs_inode structure, amortizing the cost
of using this type of serialization.

Certain bits in nfsi->flags can be manipulated with atomic bitops, and some
are better manipulated via logical bitmask operations.
This patch splits the flags field into two. The next patch introduces atomic
bitops for one of the fields.

When the client performs an exclusive create and opens the file for writing,
a Netapp filer will first create the file using the mode 01777. It does this
since an NFSv3/v4 exclusive create cannot immediately set the mode bits.
The 01777 mode then gets put into the inode->i_mode. After the file creation
is successful, we then do a setattr to change the mode to the correct value
(as per the NFS spec).
The problem is that nfs_refresh_inode() no longer updates inode->i_mode, so
the latter retains the 01777 mode. A bit later, the VFS notices this, and calls
remove_suid(). This of course now resets the file mode to inode->i_mode & 0777.
Hey presto, the file mode on the server is now magically changed to 0777. Duh...

The following patch removes the f_error field and all checks of f_error.
Trond said:
f_error was introduced for NFS, and made sense when we were guaranteed
always to have a file pointer around when write errors occurred. Since
then, we have (for various reasons) had to introduce the nfs_open_context in
order to track the file read/write state, and it made sense to move our
f_error tracking there too.

Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
Instead of looking at whether or not the file is open for writes before
we accept to update the length using the server value, we should rather
be looking at whether or not we are currently caching any writes.
Failure to do so means in particular that we're not updating the file
length correctly after obtaining a POSIX or BSD lock.

If we do not hold a valid stateid that is open for writes, there is little
point in doing an extra open of the file, as the RFC does not appear to
mandate this...
Make setattr use the correct stateid if we're holding mandatory byte
range locks.

NFSv3 currently returns the unsigned 64-bit cookie directly to
userspace. The following patch causes the kernel to generate
loff_t offsets for the benefit of userland.
The current server-generated READDIR cookie is cached in the
nfs_open_context instead of in filp->f_pos, so we still end up work
correctly under directory insertions/deletion.

NFSv3 has no concept of a umask on the server side: The client applies
the umask locally, and sends the effective permissions to the server.
This behavior is wrong when files are created in a directory that has a
default ACL. In this case, the umask is supposed to be ignored, and
only the default ACL determines the file's effective permissions.
Usually its the server's task to conditionally apply the umask. But
since the server knows nothing about the umask, we have to do it on the
client side. This patch tries to fetch the parent directory's default
ACL before creating a new file, computes the appropriate create mode to
send to the server, and finally sets the new file's access and default
acl appropriately.
