Revert "sysfs: drop kobj_ns_type handling"

This reverts commit cb26a311578e67769e92a39a0a63476533cb7e12.

It mysteriously causes NetworkManager to not find the wireless device
for me. As far as I can tell, Tejun *meant* for this commit to not make
any semantic changes, but there clearly are some. So revert it, taking
into account some of the calling convention changes that happened in
this area in subsequent commits.

"Here's the big driver core / sysfs update for 3.13-rc1.

There's lots of dev_groups updates for different subsystems, as they
all get slowly migrated over to the safe versions of the attribute
groups (removing userspace races with the creation of the sysfs
files.) Also in here are some kobject updates, devres expansions, and
the first round of Tejun's sysfs reworking to enable it to be used by
other subsystems as a backend for an in-kernel filesystem.

All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"

sysfs: rename sysfs_assoc_lock and explain what it's about

sysfs_assoc_lock is an odd piece of locking. In general, whoever owns
a kobject is responsible for synchronizing sysfs operations and sysfs
proper assumes that, for example, removal won't race with any other
operation; however, this doesn't work for symlinking because an entity
performing symlink doesn't usually own the target kobject and thus has
no control over its removal.

sysfs_assoc_lock synchronizes symlink operations against kobj->sd
disassociation so that symlink code doesn't end up dereferencing
already freed sysfs_dirent by racing with removal of the target
kobject.

This is quite obscure and the generic name of the lock and lack of
comments make it difficult to understand its role. Let's rename it to
sysfs_symlink_target_lock and add comments explaining what's going on.

sysfs: remove sysfs_addrm_cxt->parent_sd

sysfs_addrm_start/finish() enclose sysfs_dirent additions and
deletions and sysfs_addrm_cxt is used to record information necessary
to finish the operations. Currently, sysfs_addrm_start() takes
@parent_sd, records it in sysfs_addrm_cxt, and assumes that all
operations in the block are performed under that @parent_sd.

This assumption has been fine until now but we want to make some
operations behave recursively and, while having @parent_sd recorded in
sysfs_addrm_cxt doesn't necessarily prevents that, it becomes
confusing.

This patch removes sysfs_addrm_cxt->parent_sd and makes
sysfs_add_one() take an explicit @parent_sd parameter. Note that
sysfs_remove_one() doesn't need the extra argument as its parent is
always known from the target @sd.

While at it, add __acquires/releases() notations to
sysfs_addrm_start/finish() respectively.

This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

Some internal sysfs functions which take explicit namespace argument
are weird in that they place the optional @ns in front of @name which

causing compilation warning.

sysfs: clean up sysfs_get_dirent()

The pre-existing sysfs interfaces which take explicit namespace
argument are weird in that they place the optional @ns in front of
@name which is contrary to the established convention. For example,
we end up forcing vast majority of sysfs_get_dirent() users to do
sysfs_get_dirent(parent, NULL, name), which is silly and error-prone
especially as @ns and @name may be interchanged without causing
compilation warning.

This renames sysfs_get_dirent() to sysfs_get_dirent_ns() and swap the
positions of @name and @ns, and sysfs_get_dirent() is now a wrapper
around sysfs_get_dirent_ns(). This makes confusions a lot less
likely.

There are other interfaces which take @ns before @name. They'll be
updated by following patches.

This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.

v2: EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() wasn't updated leading to undefined symbol
error on module builds. Reported by build test robot. Fixed.

sysfs: drop kobj_ns_type handling

The way namespace tags are implemented in sysfs is more complicated
than necessary. As each tag is a pointer value and required to be
non-NULL under a namespace enabled parent, there's no need to record
separately what type each tag is or where namespace is enabled.

If multiple namespace types are needed, which currently aren't, we can
simply compare the tag to a set of allowed tags in the superblock
assuming that the tags, being pointers, won't have the same value
across multiple types. Also, whether to filter by namespace tag or
not can be trivially determined by whether the node has any tagged
children or not.

This patch rips out kobj_ns_type handling from sysfs. sysfs no longer
cares whether specific type of namespace is enabled or not. If a
sysfs_dirent has a non-NULL tag, the parent is marked as needing
namespace filtering and the value is tested against the allowed set of
tags for the superblock (currently only one but increasing this number
isn't difficult) and the sysfs_dirent is ignored if it doesn't match.

This removes most kobject namespace knowledge from sysfs proper which
will enable proper separation and layering of sysfs. The namespace
sanity checks in fs/sysfs/dir.c are replaced by the new sanity check
in kobject_namespace(). As this is the only place ktype->namespace()
is called for sysfs, this doesn't weaken the sanity check
significantly. I omitted converting the sanity check in
sysfs_do_create_link_sd(). While the check can be shifted to upper
layer, mistakes there are well contained and should be easily visible
anyway.

sysfs: remove ktype->namespace() invocations in symlink code

There's no reason for sysfs to be calling ktype->namespace(). It is
backwards, obfuscates what's going on and unnecessarily tangles two
separate layers.

There are two places where symlink code calls ktype->namespace().

* sysfs_do_create_link_sd() calls it to find out the namespace tag of
the target directory. Unless symlinking races with cross-namespace
renaming, this equals @target_sd->s_ns.

* sysfs_rename_link() uses it to find out the new namespace to rename
to and the new namespace can be different from the existing one.
The function is renamed to sysfs_rename_link_ns() with an explicit
@ns argument and the ktype->namespace() invocation is shifted to the
device layer.

While this patch replaces ktype->namespace() invocation with the
recorded result in @target_sd, this shouldn't result in any behvior
difference.
