The per-inode locking can be made more fine-grained to surround just the

protecting reads during a write, since concurrent writes are barred with
inode->i_mutex at the vfs level.

reiserfs: Clean up xattrs when REISERFS_FS_XATTR is unset

The current reiserfs xattr implementation will not clean up old xattr
files if files are deleted when REISERFS_FS_XATTR is unset. This
results in inaccessible lost files, wasting space.

This patch compiles in basic xattr knowledge, such as how to delete them
and change ownership for quota tracking. If the file system has never
used xattrs, then the operation is quite fast: it returns immediately
when it sees there is no .reiserfs_priv directory.

reiserfs: rework reiserfs_warning

ReiserFS warnings can be somewhat inconsistent.
In some cases:
* a unique identifier may be associated with it
* the function name may be included
* the device may be printed separately

This patch aims to make warnings more consistent. reiserfs_warning() prints
the device name, so printing it a second time is not required. The function
name for a warning is always helpful in debugging, so it is now automatically
inserted into the output. Hans has stated that every warning should have
a unique identifier. Some cases lack them, others really shouldn't have them.
reiserfs_warning() now expects an id associated with each message. In the
rare case where one isn't needed, "" will suffice.

[PATCH] reiserfs: eliminate private use of struct file in xattr

After several posts and bug reports regarding interaction with the NULL
nameidata, here's a patch to clean up the mess with struct file in the
reiserfs xattr code.

As observed in several of the posts, there's really no need for struct file
to exist in the xattr code. It was really only passed around due to the
f_op->readdir() and a_ops->{prepare,commit}_write prototypes requiring it.

reiserfs_prepare_write() and reiserfs_commit_write() don't actually use the
struct file passed to it, and the xattr code uses a private version of
reiserfs_readdir() to enumerate the xattr directories.

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.

reiserfs: fix xattr root locking/refcount bug

The listxattr() and getxattr() operations are only protected by a read
lock. As a result, if either of these operations run in parallel, a race
condition exists where the xattr_root will end up being cached twice, which
results in the leaking of a reference and a BUG() on umount.

This patch refactors get_xa_root(), __get_xa_root(), and create_xa_root(),
into one get_xa_root() function that takes the appropriate locking around
the entire critical section.
