H A Ddirect.cdiff fedb595c66e1fbd5acafe0d43b7e95c13c936d61 Tue Jun 20 11:55:45 CDT 2006 Chuck Lever <cel@netapp.com> NFS: "open code" the NFS direct write rescheduler

An NFSv3/v4 client must reschedule on-the-wire writes if the writes are
UNSTABLE, and the server reboots before the client can complete a
subsequent COMMIT request.

To support direct asynchronous scatter-gather writes, the write
rescheduler in fs/nfs/direct.c must not depend on the I/O parameters
in the controlling nfs_direct_req structure. iovecs can be somewhat
arbitrarily complex, so there could be an unbounded amount of information
to save for a rarely encountered requirement.

Refactor the direct write rescheduler so it uses information from each
nfs_write_data structure to reschedule writes, instead of caching that
information in the controlling nfs_direct_req structure.
