For loosely coupled pNFS/flexfiles systems, there is often no advantage
at all in going through the MDS for I/O, since the MDS is subject to
the same limitations as all other clients when talking to DSes. If a
DS is unresponsive, I/O through the MDS will fail.
For such systems, the only scalable solution is to have the pNFS clients
retry doing pNFS, and so the protocol now provides a flag that allows
the pNFS server to signal this.
If LAYOUTGET returns FF_FLAGS_NO_IO_THRU_MDS, then we should assume that
the MDS wants the client to retry using these devices, even if they were
previously marked as being unavailable. To do so, we add a helper,
ff_layout_mark_devices_valid() that will be called from layoutget.

If the pNFS/flexfiles file is mirrored, and a read to one mirror fails,
then we should bump the mirror index, so that we retry to a different
mirror. Once we've iterated through all mirrors and all failed, we can
return the layout and issue a new LAYOUTGET.

If a read-write layout has an invalid mirror, then we should
mark it as invalid, and return it.
If a read-only layout has an invalid mirror, then mark it as invalid
and check if there is still at least one valid mirror before we return
it.
Note: Also fix incorrect use of pnfs_generic_mark_devid_invalid().

Mirrors are now shared objects, so we should not be freeing them directly
inside ff_layout_free_lseg(). We should already be doing the right thing
in _ff_layout_free_lseg(), so just let it handle things.
Also ensure that ff_layout_free_mirror() frees the RPC credential if it
is set.

If the file was fenced and/or has been deleted on the DS, then we want
to retry pNFS after a layoutreturn with error report. If the server
cannot fix the problem, then we rely on it to tell us so in the
response to the LAYOUTGET.

According to the flexfiles protocol, the layoutreturn should specify an
array of errors in the following format:
struct ff_ioerr4 {
offset4 ffie_offset;
length4 ffie_length;
stateid4 ffie_stateid;
device_error4 ffie_errors<>;
};
This patch fixes up the code to ensure that our ffie_errors is indeed
encoded as an array (albeit with only a single entry).

This patch ensures that we record the value of 'ffl_flags' from
the layout, and then checks for the presence of the

call pnfs_set_layoutcommit().
The effect is that servers now can decide whether or not they want
the client to call layoutcommit before returning a writeable layout.

A ds can be associated with more than one mirror, but we currently skip
setting a mirror's credentials if we find that it's already set up with
a connected client.
The upshot is that we can end up sending DS writes with MDS credentials
instead of properly setting them up. Fix nfs4_ff_layout_prepare_ds to
always verify that the mirror's credentials are set up, even when we
have a DS that's already connected.

If we have two tasks racing to update a mirror's credentials, then they
can end up leaking one (or more) sets of credentials. The first task
will set mirror->cred and then the second task will just overwrite it.
Use a cmpxchg to ensure that the creds are only set once. If we get to
the point where we would set mirror->cred and find that they're already
set, then we just release the creds that were just found.

The LAYOUTCOMMIT operation means different things to different layout types.
For blocks and objects, it is both a data and metadata consistency operation.
For files and flexfiles, it is only a metadata consistency operation.

drivers to optimise away the data consistency calls to layoutcommit.

Pull backing device changes from Jens Axboe:
"This contains a cleanup of how the backing device is handled, in
preparation for a rework of the life time rules. In this part, the
most important change is to split the unrelated nommu mmap flags from

address_space (and inode), and a cleanup of other various minor bits.
Christoph did all the work here, I just fixed an oops with pages that
have a swap backing. Arnd fixed a missing export, and Oleg killed the
