Later, we'll fix the code to not require a unc= option, but for now we
need this to at least clarify why people are getting errors about DFS

The block device access simplification that avoided accessing the (racy)
block size information (commit bbec0270bd: "blkdev_max_block: make
private to fs/buffer.c") no longer checks the maximum block size in the
block mapping path.
That was _almost_ as simple as just removing the code entirely, because
the readers and writers all check the size of the device anyway, so
under normal circumstances it "just worked".
However, the block size may be such that the end of the device may
straddle one single buffer_head. At which point we may still want to
access the end of the device, but the buffer we use to access it
partially extends past the end.
The 'bd_set_size()' function intentionally sets the block size to avoid
this, but mounting the device - or setting the block size by hand to
some other value - can modify that block size.
So instead, teach 'submit_bh()' about the special case of the buffer
head straddling the end of the device, and turning such an access into a
smaller IO access, avoiding the problem.
This, btw, also means that unlike before, we can now access the whole
device regardless of device block size setting. So now, even if the
device size is only 512-byte aligned, we can read and write even the
last sector even when having a much bigger block size for accessing the
rest of the device.
So with this, we could now get rid of the 'bd_set_size()' block size
code entirely - resulting in faster IO for the common case - but that
would be a separate patch.

Merge 'block-dev' branch.
I was going to just mark everything here for stable and leave it to the
3.8 merge window, but having decided on doing another -rc, I migth as
well merge it now.
This removes the bd_block_size_semaphore semaphore that was added in
this release to fix a race condition between block size changes and
block IO, and replaces it with atomicity guaratees in fs/buffer.c
instead, along with simplifying fs/block-dev.c.
This removes more lines than it adds, makes the code generally simpler,
and avoids the latency/rt issues that the block size semaphore
introduced for mount.
I'm not happy with the timing, but it wouldn't be much better doing this
during the merge window and then having some delayed back-port of it
into stable.

We really don't want to look at the block size for the raw block device

Since directio can work on a raw block device, and the block size of the
device can change under it, we need to do the same thing that
fs/buffer.c now does: read the block size a single time, using
ACCESS_ONCE().
Reading it multiple times can get different results, which will then
confuse the code because it actually encodes the i_blksize in
relationship to the underlying logical blocksize.
Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
This reverts the block-device direct access code to the previous

Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
This makes the buffer size handling be a per-page thing, which allows us
to not have to worry about locking too much when changing the buffer
size. If a page doesn't have buffers, we still need to read the block
size from the inode, but we can do that with ACCESS_ONCE(), so that even
if the size is changing, we get a consistent value.
This doesn't convert all functions - many of the buffer functions are
used purely by filesystems, which in turn results in the buffer size
being fixed at mount-time. So they don't have the same consistency
issues that the raw device access can have.

Commit eddb079deb created a regression in the writepages codepath.
Previously, whenever it needed to check the size of the file, it did so
by consulting the inode->i_size field directly. With that patch, the
i_size was fetched once on entry into the writepages code and that value
was used henceforth.
If the file is changing size though (for instance, if someone is writing
to it or has truncated it), then that value is likely to be wrong. This
can lead to data corruption. Pages past the EOF at the time that the
writepages call was issued may be silently dropped and ignored because
cifs_writepages wrongly assumes that the file must have been truncated
in the interim.
Fix cifs_writepages to properly fetch the size from the inode->i_size
field instead to properly account for this possibility.

jbd: Fix lock ordering bug in journal_unmap_buffer()
Commit 169ebd9013 ("writeback: Avoid iput() from flusher thread")
removed iget-iput pair from inode writeback. As a side effect, inodes
that are dirty during iput_final() call won't be ever added to inode LRU
(iput_final() doesn't add dirty inodes to LRU and later when the inode
is cleaned there's noone to add the inode there). Thus inodes are
effectively unreclaimable until someone looks them up again.
The practical effect of this bug is limited by the fact that inodes are
pinned by a dentry for long enough that the inode gets cleaned. But
still the bug can have nasty consequences leading up to OOM conditions
under certain circumstances. Following can easily reproduce the
problem:
for (( i = 0; i < 1000; i++ )); do
mkdir $i
for (( j = 0; j < 1000; j++ )); do
touch $i/$j
echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
done
done
then one needs to run 'sync; ls -lR' to make inodes reclaimable again.
We fix the issue by inserting unused clean inodes into the LRU after
writeback finishes in inode_sync_complete().

Commit 09e05d48 introduced a wait for transaction commit into
journal_unmap_buffer() in the case we are truncating a buffer undergoing commit
in the page stradding i_size on a filesystem with blocksize < pagesize. Sadly
we forgot to drop buffer lock before waiting for transaction commit and thus
deadlock is possible when kjournald wants to lock the buffer.
Fix the problem by dropping the buffer lock before waiting for transaction
commit. Since we are still holding page lock (and that is OK), buffer cannot

xfs: drop buffer io reference when a bad bio is built
xfs: fix broken error handling in xfs_vm_writepage
xfs: fix attr tree double split corruption
Error handling in xfs_buf_ioapply_map() does not handle IO reference
counts correctly. We increment the b_io_remaining count before
building the bio, but then fail to decrement it in the failure case.
This leads to the buffer never running IO completion and releasing
the reference that the IO holds, so at unmount we can leak the
buffer. This leak is captured by this assert failure during unmount:
XFS: Assertion failed: atomic_read(&pag->pag_ref) == 0, file: fs/xfs/xfs_mount.c, line: 273
This is not a new bug - the b_io_remaining accounting has had this
problem for a long, long time - it's just very hard to get a
zero length bio being built by this code...
Further, the buffer IO error can be overwritten on a multi-segment
buffer by subsequent bio completions for partial sections of the
buffer. Hence we should only set the buffer error status if the
buffer is not already carrying an error status. This ensures that a
partial IO error on a multi-segment buffer will not be lost. This
part of the problem is a regression, however.
