There can be a case, when on MOUNT event RPC client (after it's dentries were
created) is not longer hold by anyone except notification callback.
I.e. on release this client will be destoroyed. And it's dentries have to be
destroyed as well. Which in turn requires per-net PipeFS superblock to be set.

Highlights:
- Benny Halevy and Tigran Mkrtchyan implemented some more 4.1 features,
moving us closer to a complete 4.1 implementation.
- Bernd Schubert fixed a long-standing problem with readdir cookies on
ext2/3/4.
- Jeff Layton performed a long-overdue overhaul of the server reboot
recovery code which will allow us to deprecate the current code (a
rather unusual user of the vfs), and give us some needed flexibility
for further improvements.
- Like the client, we now support numeric uid's and gid's in the
auth_sys case, allowing easier upgrades from NFSv2/v3 to v4.x.
Plus miscellaneous bugfixes and cleanup.
Thanks to everyone!
There are also some delegation fixes waiting on vfs review that I
suppose will have to wait for 3.5. With that done I think we'll finally
turn off the "EXPERIMENTAL" dependency for v4 (though that's mostly
symbolic as it's been on by default in distro's for a while).
And the list of 4.1 todo's should be achievable for 3.5 as well:
http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Server_4.0_and_4.1_issues
though we may still want a bit more experience with it before turning it
on by default.

Currently, wait queue, used for polling of RPC pipe changes from user-space,
is a part of RPC pipe. But the pipe data itself can be released on NFS umount
prior to dentry-inode pair, connected to it (is case of this pair is open by
some process).
This is not a problem for almost all pipe users, because all PipeFS file
operations checks pipe reference prior to using it.
Except evenfd. This thing registers itself with "poll" file operation and thus
has a reference to pipe wait queue. This leads to oopses on destroying eventfd
after NFS umount (like rpc_idmapd do) since not pipe data left to the point
already.
The solution is to wait queue from pipe data to internal RPC inode data. This
looks more logical, because this wiat queue used only for user-space processes,
which already holds inode reference.
Note: upcalls have to get pipe->dentry prior to dereferecing wait queue to make
sure, that mount point won't disappear from underneath us.

There are 2 tightly bound objects: pipe data (created for kernel needs, has
reference to dentry, which depends on PipeFS mount/umount) and PipeFS
dentry/inode pair (created on mount for user-space needs). They both
independently may have or have not a valid reference to each other.
This means, that we have to make sure, that pipe->dentry reference is valid on
upcalls, and dentry->pipe reference is valid on downcalls. The latter check is
absent - my fault.
IOW, PipeFS dentry can be opened by some process (rpc.idmapd for example), but
it's pipe data can belong to NFS mount, which was unmounted already and thus
pipe data was destroyed.
To fix this, pipe reference have to be set to NULL on rpc_unlink() and checked
on PipeFS file operations instead of pipe->dentry check.
Note: PipeFS "poll" file operation will be updated in next patch, because it's
logic is more complicated.

v2:
1) Added "nfs_idmap_init" and "nfs_idmap_quit" definitions for kernels built
without CONFIG_NFS_V4 option set.
This patch subscribes NFS clients to RPC pipefs notifications. Idmap notifier
is registering on NFS module load. This notifier callback is responsible for
creation/destruction of PipeFS idmap pipe dentry for NFS4 clients.
Since ipdmap pipe is created in rpc client pipefs directory, we have make sure,
that this directory has been created already. IOW RPC client notifier callback
has been called already. To achive this, PipeFS notifier priorities has been
introduced (RPC clients notifier priority is greater than NFS idmap one).
But this approach gives another problem: unlink for RPC client directory will
be called before NFS idmap pipe unlink on UMOUNT event and will fail, because
directory is not empty.
The solution, introduced in this patch, is to try to remove client directory
once again after idmap pipe was unlinked. This looks like ugly hack, so
probably it should be replaced in some more elegant way.
Note that no locking required in notifier callback because PipeFS superblock
pointer is passed as an argument from it's creation or destruction routine and
thus we can be sure about it's validity.

This patch looks late due to GSS AUTH patches sent already. But it fixes a flaw
in RPC PipeFS pipes handling.
I've added this patch in the series, because this series related to pipes. But
it should be a part of previous series named "SUNPRC: cleanup PipeFS for
network-namespace-aware users".
Pipe dentry can be created and destroyed many times during pipe life cycle.
This actually means, that we can't set pipe->ops to NULL in rpc_close_pipes()
and use this variable as a flag, indicating, that pipe's dentry is unlinking.
To follow this restriction, this patch replaces "pipe->ops = NULL" assignment
and checks for NULL with "pipe->dentry = NULL" assignment and checks for
NULL respectively.
This patch also removes check for non-NULL pipe->ops (or pipe->dentry) in
rpc_close_pipes() because it always non-NULL now.

During per-net pipes creation and destruction we have to make sure, that pipefs
sb exists for the whole creation/destruction cycle. This is done by using
special mutex which controls pipefs sb reference on network namespace context.
Helper consists of two parts: first of them (rpc_get_dentry_net) searches for
dentry with specified name and returns with mutex taken on success. When pipe
creation or destructions is completed, caller should release this mutex by
rpc_put_dentry_net call.

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.

Instead of always assigning an increasing inode number in new_inode
move the call to assign it into those callers that actually need it.
For now callers that need it is estimated conservatively, that is
the call is added to all filesystems that do not assign an i_ino
by themselves. For a few more filesystems we can avoid assigning
any inode number given that they aren't user visible, and for others
it could be done lazily when an inode number is actually needed,
but that's left for later patches.

The sunrpc cache_ioctl function does not need the big kernel lock
because it uses its own queue_lock already.
rpc_pipe_ioctl apparently should be using i_lock like the other
operations on the pipe file descriptor do.

There is a race between rpc_info_open and rpc_release_client()
in that nothing stops a process from opening the file after
the clnt->cl_kref goes to zero.
Fix this by using atomic_inc_unless_zero()...

If rpc_queue_upcall() adds a new upcall to the rpci->pipe list just
after rpc_pipe_release calls rpc_purge_list(), but before it calls
gss_pipe_release (as rpci->ops->release_pipe(inode)), then the latter
will free a message without deleting it from the rpci->pipe list.
We will be left with a freed object on the rpc->pipe list. Most
frequent symptoms are kernel crashes in rpc.gssd system calls on the
pipe in question.
