The purpose of this patch is to improve the remote mount path lookup
support for distributed filesystems such as the NFSv4 client.
When given a mount command of the form "mount server:/foo/bar /mnt", the
NFSv4 client is required to look up the filehandle for "server:/", and
then look up each component of the remote mount path "foo/bar" in order
to find the directory that is actually going to be mounted on /mnt.
Following that remote mount path may involve following symlinks,
crossing server-side mount points and even following referrals to
filesystem volumes on other servers.
Since the standard VFS path lookup code already supports walking paths
that contain all these features (using in-kernel automounts for
following referrals) we would like to be able to reuse that rather than
duplicate the full path traversal functionality in the NFSv4 client code.
This patch therefore defines a VFS helper function create_mnt_ns(), that
sets up a temporary filesystem namespace and attaches a root filesystem to
it. It exports the create_mnt_ns() and put_mnt_ns() function for use by
filesystem modules.

This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about another 2% after the
first patch.
Before:
avg = 462.286
std = 5.46106
After:
avg = 453.12
std = 9.58257
(50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence)
It does this by introducing mnt_clone_write, which avoids some heavyweight
operations of mnt_want_write if called on a vfsmount which we know already
has a write count; and mnt_want_write_file, which can call mnt_clone_write
if the file is open for write.
After these two patches, mnt_want_write and mnt_drop_write go from 7% on
the profile down to 1.3% (including mnt_clone_write).
[AV: mnt_want_write_file() should take file alone and derive mnt from it;
not only all callers have that form, but that's the only mnt about which
we know that it's already held for write if file is opened for write]

This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about 8%. lat_mmap is set up
basically to mmap a 64MB file on tmpfs, fault in its pages, then unmap it.
A microbenchmark yes, but it exercises some important paths in the mm.
Before:
avg = 501.9
std = 14.7773
After:
avg = 462.286
std = 5.46106
(50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence, but there is quite
a bit of variation there still)
It does this by removing the complex per-cpu locking and counter-cache and
replaces it with a percpu counter in struct vfsmount. This makes the code
much simpler, and avoids spinlocks (although the msync is still pretty
costly, unfortunately). It results in about 900 bytes smaller code too. It
does increase the size of a vfsmount, however.
It should also give a speedup on large systems if CPUs are frequently operating
on different mounts (because the existing scheme has to operate on an atomic in
the struct vfsmount when switching between mounts). But I'm most interested in
the single threaded path performance for the moment.

Since commit 0a1c01c947 ("Make relatime
default") when a file system is mounted explicitely with noatime it gets
both the MNT_RELATIME and MNT_NOATIME bits set.
This shows up like this in /proc/mounts:
/dev/xxx /yyy ext3 rw,noatime,relatime,errors=continue,data=writeback 0 0
That looks strange. The VFS uses noatime in this case, but both flags
are set. So it's more a cosmetic issue, but still better to fix.

simple_set_mnt() is defined as returning 'int' but always returns 0.
Callers assume simple_set_mnt() never fails and don't properly cleanup if
it were to _ever_ fail. For instance, get_sb_single() and get_sb_nodev()
should:
up_write(sb->s_unmount);
deactivate_super(sb);
if simple_set_mnt() fails.
Since simple_set_mnt() never fails, would be cleaner if it did not
return anything.

due to optimistically checking cpu_writer->mnt outside the spinlock.
Here's what we really want:
* we know that nobody will set cpu_writer->mnt to mnt from now on
* all changes to that sucker are done under cpu_writer->lock
* we want the laziest equivalent of
spin_lock(&cpu_writer->lock);
if (likely(cpu_writer->mnt != mnt)) {
spin_unlock(&cpu_writer->lock);
continue;
}
/* do stuff */
that would make sure we won't miss earlier setting of ->mnt done by
another CPU.
Anyway, for now we just move the spin_lock() earlier and move the test
into the properly locked region.

Without this if you attempt to mount an nfs mount that has both automatic

succeed when it should not.

[mszeredi@suse.cz] rewrite and split big patch into managable chunks
/proc/mounts in its current form lacks important information:
- propagation state
- root of mount for bind mounts
- the st_dev value used within the filesystem
- identifier for each mount and it's parent
It also suffers from the following problems:
- not easily extendable
- ambiguity of mountpoints within a chrooted environment
- doesn't distinguish between filesystem dependent and independent options
- doesn't distinguish between per mount and per super block options
This patch introduces /proc/<pid>/mountinfo which attempts to address
all these deficiencies.
Code shared between /proc/<pid>/mounts and /proc/<pid>/mountinfo is
extracted into separate functions.
Thanks to Al Viro for the help in getting the design right.

Add a unique ID to each peer group using the IDR infrastructure. The
identifiers are reused after the peer group dissolves.
The IDR structures are protected by holding namepspace_sem for write
while allocating or deallocating IDs.
IDs are allocated when a previously unshared vfsmount becomes the
first member of a peer group. When a new member is added to an
existing group, the ID is copied from one of the old members.
IDs are freed when the last member of a peer group is unshared.
Setting the MNT_SHARED flag on members of a subtree is done as a
separate step, after all the IDs have been allocated. This way an
allocation failure can be cleaned up easilty, without affecting the
propagation state.
Based on design sketch by Al Viro.
