new method: ->get_link(); replacement of ->follow_link(). The differences
are:
* inode and dentry are passed separately
* might be called both in RCU and non-RCU mode;
the former is indicated by passing it a NULL dentry.
* when called that way it isn't allowed to block
and should return ERR_PTR(-ECHILD) if it needs to be called
in non-RCU mode.
It's a flagday change - the old method is gone, all in-tree instances
converted. Conversion isn't hard; said that, so far very few instances
do not immediately bail out when called in RCU mode. That'll change
in the next commits.

seeing that "fast" symlinks still get allocation + copy, we might as
well simply switch them to pagecache-based variant of ->follow_link();
just need an appropriate ->readpage() for them...

mlog_exit is used to record the exit status of a function.
But because it is added in so many functions, if we enable it,
the system logs get filled up quickly and cause too much I/O.
So actually no one can open it for a production system or even
for a test.
This patch just try to remove it or change it. So:
1. if all the error paths already use mlog_errno, it is just removed.
Otherwise, it will be replaced by mlog_errno.
2. if it is used to print some return value, it is replaced with
mlog(0,...).
mlog_exit_ptr is changed to mlog(0.
All those mlog(0,...) will be replaced with trace events later.

ENTRY is used to record the entry of a function.
But because it is added in so many functions, if we enable it,
the system logs get filled up quickly and cause too much I/O.
So actually no one can open it for a production system or even
for a test.
So for mlog_entry_void, we just remove it.
for mlog_entry(...), we replace it with mlog(0,...), and they
will be replace by trace event later.

ocfs2 fast symlinks are NUL terminated strings stored inline in the
inode data area. However, disk corruption or a local attacker could, in
theory, remove that NUL. Because we're using strlen() (my fault,
introduced in a731d1 when removing vfs_follow_link()), we could walk off
the end of that string.

If ->follow_link handler returns an error, it should decrement
nd->path refcnt. But ocfs2_fast_follow_link() doesn't decrement.
This patch fixes the problem by using nd_set_link() style error handling
instead of playing with nd->path.

For fast symlink, it can be treated the same as inlined files since
the data extent we want to return of both case all were stored in
metadata block. For symlink, it can be simply treated the same as we
did for regular files.

* remove linux/utsname.h inclusion from files which do not need it

The ocfs2 code currently reads inodes off disk with a simple
ocfs2_read_block() call. Each place that does this has a different set
of sanity checks it performs. Some check only the signature. A couple
validate the block number (the block read vs di->i_blkno). A couple
others check for VALID_FL. Only one place validates i_fs_generation. A
couple check nothing. Even when an error is found, they don't all do
the same thing.
We wrap inode reading into ocfs2_read_inode_block(). This will validate
all the above fields, going readonly if they are invalid (they never
should be). ocfs2_read_inode_block_full() is provided for the places
that want to pass read_block flags. Every caller is passing a struct
inode with a valid ip_blkno, so we don't need a separate blkno argument
either.
We will remove the validation checks from the rest of the code in a
later commit, as they are no longer necessary.

More than 30 callers of ocfs2_read_block() pass exactly OCFS2_BH_CACHED.
Only six pass a different flag set. Rather than have every caller care,
let's make ocfs2_read_block() take no flags and always do a cached read.
The remaining six places can call ocfs2_read_blocks() directly.

Now that synchronous readers are using ocfs2_read_blocks_sync(), all
callers of ocfs2_read_blocks() are passing an inode. Use it
unconditionally. Since it's there, we don't need to pass the
ocfs2_super either.

This patch implements storing extended attributes both in inode or a single
external block. We only store EA's in-inode when blocksize > 512 or that
inode block has free space for it. When an EA's value is larger than 80
bytes, we will store the value via b-tree outside inode or block.

Ensure pages are uptodate after returning from read_cache_page, which allows
us to cut out most of the filesystem-internal PageUptodate calls.
I didn't have a great look down the call chains, but this appears to fixes 7
possible use-before uptodate in hfs, 2 in hfsplus, 1 in jfs, a few in
ecryptfs, 1 in jffs2, and a possible cleared data overwritten with readpage in
block2mtd. All depending on whether the filler is async and/or can return
with a !uptodate page.

Many struct inode_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.
