Rationale: kmemcheck needs to be able to schedule a tasklet without
touching any dynamically allocated memory _at_ _all_ (since that would
lead to a recursive page fault). This tasklet is used for writing the
error reports to the kernel log.
The new scheduling function avoids touching any other tasklets by
inserting the new tasklist as the head of the "tasklet_hi" list instead
of on the tail.
Also don't wake up the softirq thread lest the scheduler access some
tracked memory and we go down with a recursive page fault.
In this case, we'd better just wait for the maximum time of 1/HZ for the
message to appear.

This will help kmemcheck (and possibly other debugging tools) since we
can now simply pass regs->bp to the stack tracer instead of specifying
the number of stack frames to skip, which is unreliable if gcc decides
to inline functions, etc.
Note that this makes the API incomplete for other architectures, but I
expect that those can be updated lazily, e.g. when they need it.

This will remove every bd_mount_sem use in nilfs.
The intended exclusion control was replaced by the previous patch
("nilfs2: correct exclusion control in nilfs_remount function") for
nilfs_remount(), and this patch will replace remains with a new mutex
that this inserts in nilfs object.

nilfs_remount() changes mount state of a superblock instance. Even
though nilfs accesses other superblock instances during mount or
remount, the mount state was not properly protected in
nilfs_remount().
Moreover, nilfs_remount() has a lock order reversal problem;
nilfs_get_sb() holds:
1. bdev->bd_mount_sem
2. sb->s_umount (sget acquires)
and nilfs_remount() holds:
1. sb->s_umount (locked by the caller in vfs)
2. bdev->bd_mount_sem
To avoid these problems, this patch divides a semaphore protecting
super block instances from nilfs->ns_sem, and applies it to the mount
state protection in nilfs_remount().
With this change, bd_mount_sem use is removed from nilfs_remount() and
the lock order reversal will be resolved. And the new rw-semaphore,
nilfs->ns_super_sem will properly protect the mount state except the
modification from nilfs_error function.

This simplifies the test function passed on the remaining sget()
callsite in nilfs.
Instead of checking mount type (i.e. ro-mount/rw-mount/snapshot mount)
in the test function passed to sget(), this patch first looks up the
nilfs_sb_info struct which the given mount type matches, and then
acquires the super block instance holding the nilfs_sb_info.

This will change the way to obtain nilfs object in nilfs_get_sb()
function.
Previously, a preliminary sget() call was performed, and the nilfs
object was acquired from a super block instance found by the sget()
call.
This patch, instead, instroduces a new dedicated function
find_or_create_nilfs(); as the name implies, the function finds an
existent nilfs object from a global list or creates a new one if no
object is found on the device.

The following EBUSY case in nilfs_get_sb() is meaningless. Indeed,
this error code is never returned to the caller.
if (!s->s_root) {
...
} else if (!(s->s_flags & MS_RDONLY)) {
err = -EBUSY;
}
This simply removes the else case.

Now that all filesystems provide ->sync_fs methods we can change
__sync_filesystem to only call ->sync_fs.
This gives us a clear separation between periodic writeouts which
are driven by ->write_super and data integrity syncs that go
through ->sync_fs. (modulo file_fsync which is also going away)

I think the block_dump output in __mark_inode_dirty is missing dentry locking.
Surely the i_dentry list can change any time, so we may not even *get* a
dentry there. If we do get one by chance, then it would appear to be able to
go away or get renamed at any time...

Some filesystems can call in to sync an inode that is still in the
I_NEW state (eg. ext family, when mounted with -osync). This is OK
because the filesystem has sole access to the new inode, so it can
modify i_state without races (because no other thread should be
modifying it, by definition of I_NEW). Ie. a false positive, so
remove the warnings.
The races are described here 7ef0d7377cb287e08f3ae94cebc919448e1f5dff,
which is also where the warnings were introduced.

the write_super method is used for
(1) writing back the superblock periodically from pdflush
(2) called just before ->sync_fs for data integerity syncs
We don't need (1) because we have our own peridoc writeout through xfssyncd,
and we don't need (2) because xfs_fs_sync_fs performs a proper synchronous
superblock writeout after all other data and metadata has been written out.
Also remove ->s_dirt tracking as it's only used to decide when too call
->write_super.

The only user of the i_cindex element in the inode structure is used
is by the firewire drivers. As part of an attempt to slim down the
inode structure to save memory --- since a typical Linux system will
have hundreds of thousands if not millions of inodes cached, a
reduction in the size inode has high leverage.
The firewire driver does not need i_cindex in any fast path, so it's
simple enough to calculate when it is needed, instead of wasting space
in the inode structure.
