fs: push rcu_barrier() from deactivate_locked_super() to filesystems

There's no reason to call rcu_barrier() on every
deactivate_locked_super(). We only need to make sure that all delayed rcu
free inodes are flushed before we destroy related cache.

Removing rcu_barrier() from deactivate_locked_super() affects some fast
paths. E.g. on my machine exit_group() of a last process in IPC
namespace takes 0.07538s. rcu_barrier() takes 0.05188s of that time.

isofs: Remove global fs lock

sbi->s_mutex isn't needed for isofs at all so we can just remove it. Generally,
since isofs is always mounted read-only, filesystem structure cannot change
under us. So buffer_head contents stays constant after it's filled in. That
leaves us with possible changes of global data structures. Superblock changes
only during filesystem mount (even remount does not change it), inodes are only
filled in during reading from disk. So there are no changes of these structures
to bother about.

Arguments why sbi->s_mutex can be removed at each place:
isofs_readdir: Accesses sb, inode, filp, local variables => s_mutex not needed
isofs_lookup: Protected by directory's i_mutex. Accesses sb, inode, dentry,
local variables => s_mutex not needed
rock_ridge_symlink_readpage: Protected by page lock. Accesses sb, inode,
local variables => s_mutex not needed.

fs: dcache reduce branches in lookup path

Reduce some branches and memory accesses in dcache lookup by adding dentry
flags to indicate common d_ops are set, rather than having to check them.
This saves a pointer memory access (dentry->d_op) in common path lookup
situations, and saves another pointer load and branch in cases where we
have d_op but not the particular operation.

Patched with:

git grep -E '[.>]([[:space:]])*d_op([[:space:]])*=' | xargs sed -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)->d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\1, \2);/' -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)\.d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\&\1, \2);/' -i

fs: icache RCU free inodes

RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:

- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
page lock to follow page->mapping.

The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.

In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.

The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.

Change d_compare so it may be called from lock-free RCU lookups. This
does put significant restrictions on what may be done from the callback,
however there don't seem to have been any problems with in-tree fses.
If some strange use case pops up that _really_ cannot cope with the
rcu-walk rules, we can just add new rcu-unaware callbacks, which would
cause name lookup to drop out of rcu-walk mode.

For in-tree filesystems, this is just a mechanical change.

BKL: Remove BKL from isofs

As in other file systems, we can replace the big kernel lock
with a private mutex in isofs. This means we can now access
multiple file systems concurrently, but it also means that
we serialize readdir and lookup across sleeping operations
which previously released the big kernel lock. This should
not matter though, as these operations are in practice
serialized through the hardware access.

The isofs_get_blocks functions now does not take any lock
any more, it used to recursively get the BKL. After looking
at the code for hours, I convinced myself that it was never
needed here anyway, because it only reads constant fields
of the inode and writes to a buffer head array that is
at this time only visible to the caller.

The get_sb and fill_super operations do not need the locking
at all because they operate on a file system that is either
about to be created or to be destroyed but in either case
is not visible to other threads.

BKL: Explicitly add BKL around get_sb/fill_super

This patch is a preparation necessary to remove the BKL from do_new_mount().
It explicitly adds calls to lock_kernel()/unlock_kernel() around
get_sb/fill_super operations for filesystems that still uses the BKL.

I've read through all the code formerly covered by the BKL inside
do_kern_mount() and have satisfied myself that it doesn't need the BKL
any more.

do_kern_mount() is already called without the BKL when mounting the rootfs
and in nfsctl. do_kern_mount() calls vfs_kern_mount(), which is called
from various places without BKL: simple_pin_fs(), nfs_do_clone_mount()
through nfs_follow_mountpoint(), afs_mntpt_do_automount() through
afs_mntpt_follow_link(). Both later functions are actually the filesystems
follow_link inode operation. vfs_kern_mount() is calling the specified
get_sb function and lets the filesystem do its job by calling the given
fill_super function.

Therefore I think it is safe to push down the BKL from the VFS to the
low-level filesystems get_sb/fill_super operation.

[arnd: do not add the BKL to those file systems that already
don't use it elsewhere]

isofs: Fix lseek() to position beyond 4 GB

isofs supports files larger than 4 GB by using multi-extent files.
However an lseek() to a position beyond 4 GB in such a file will
fail with EINVAL, because s_maxbytes in the isofs superblock is
initialized to 2^32-1, and generic_file_llseek() checks against
that value.

I therefore suggest increasing the value of s_maxbytes to have
full support for large files in isofs. With multi-extent files, file
size is only limited by the maximum size of the file system (8 TB),
so this seems a reasonable value for s_maxbytes.
