use d_alloc_parallel() for sillyunlink/lookup exclusion and
explicit rwsem (nfs_rmdir() being a writer and nfs_call_unlink() -
a reader) for rmdir/sillyunlink one.
That ought to make lookup/readdir/!O_CREAT atomic_open really
parallel on NFS.

Lift IS_DEADDIR handling up into the part common with atomic_open(),
remove it from the latter. Collapse permission checks into the

ta-da!
The main issue is the lack of down_write_killable(), so the places
like readdir.c switched to plain inode_lock(); once killable
variants of rwsem primitives appear, that'll be dealt with.
lockdep side also might need more work

If we *do* run into an in-lookup match, we need to wait for it to
cease being in-lookup. Fortunately, we do have unused space in
in-lookup dentries - d_lru is never looked at until it stops being
in-lookup.
So we can stash a pointer to wait_queue_head from stack frame of
the caller of ->lookup(). Some precautions are needed while
waiting, but it's not that hard - we do hold a reference to dentry
we are waiting for, so it can't go away. If it's found to be
in-lookup the wait_queue_head is still alive and will remain so
at least while ->d_lock is held. Moreover, the condition we
are waiting for becomes true at the same point where everything
on that wq gets woken up, so we can just add ourselves to the
queue once.
d_alloc_parallel() gets a pointer to wait_queue_head_t from its
caller; lookup_slow() adjusted, d_add_ci() taught to use
d_alloc_parallel() if the dentry passed to it happens to be
in-lookup one (i.e. if it's been called from the parallel lookup).
That's pretty much it - all that remains is to switch ->i_mutex
to rwsem and have lookup_slow() take it shared.

We will need to be able to check if there is an in-lookup
dentry with matching parent/name. Right now it's impossible,
but as soon as start locking directories shared such beasts
will appear.
Add a secondary hash for locating those. Hash chains go through
the same space where d_alias will be once it's not in-lookup anymore.
Search is done under the same bitlock we use for modifications -
with the primary hash we can rely on d_rehash() into the wrong
chain being the worst that could happen, but here the pointers are
buggered once it's removed from the chain. On the other hand,
the chains are not going to be long and normally we'll end up
adding to the chain anyway. That allows us to avoid bothering with
->d_lock when doing the comparisons - everything is stable until
removed from chain.
New helper: d_alloc_parallel(). Right now it allocates, verifies
that no hashed and in-lookup matches exist and adds to in-lookup
hash.
Returns ERR_PTR() for error, hashed match (in the unlikely case it's
been found) or new dentry. In-lookup matches trigger BUG() for
now; that will change in the next commit when we introduce waiting
for ongoing lookup to finish. Note that in-lookup matches won't be
possible until we actually go for shared locking.
lookup_slow() switched to use of d_alloc_parallel().
Again, these commits are separated only for making it easier to
review. All this machinery will start doing something useful only
when we go for shared locking; it's just that the combination is
too large for my taste.

We'll need to verify that there's neither a hashed nor in-lookup
dentry with desired parent/name before adding to in-lookup set.
One possible solution would be to hold the parent's ->d_lock through
both checks, but while the in-lookup set is relatively small at any
time, dcache is not. And holding the parent's ->d_lock through
something like __d_lookup_rcu() would suck too badly.
So we leave the parent's ->d_lock alone, which means that we watch
out for the following scenario:
* we verify that there's no hashed match
* existing in-lookup match gets hashed by another process
* we verify that there's no in-lookup matches and decide
that everything's fine.
Solution: per-directory kinda-sorta seqlock, bumped around the times
we hash something that used to be in-lookup or move (and hash)
something in place of in-lookup. Then the above would turn into
* read the counter
* do dcache lookup
* if no matches found, check for in-lookup matches
* if there had been none of those either, check if the
counter has changed; repeat if it has.
The "kinda-sorta" part is due to the fact that we don't have much spare
space in inode. There is a spare word (shared with i_bdev/i_cdev/i_pipe),
so the counter part is not a problem, but spinlock is a different story.
We could use the parent's ->d_lock, and it would be less painful in
terms of contention, for __d_add() it would be rather inconvenient to
grab; we could do that (using lock_parent()), but...
Fortunately, we can get serialization on the counter itself, and it
might be a good idea in general; we can use cmpxchg() in a loop to
get from even to odd and smp_store_release() from odd to even.
This commit adds the counter and updating logics; the readers will be
added in the next commit.

marked as such when (would be) parallel lookup is about to pass them
to actual ->lookup(); unmarked when
* __d_add() is about to make it hashed, positive or not.
* __d_move() (from d_splice_alias(), directly or via
__d_unalias()) puts a preexisting dentry in its place
* in caller of ->lookup() if it has escaped all of the
above. Bug (WARN_ON, actually) if it reaches the final dput()
or d_instantiate() while still marked such.
As the result, we are guaranteed that for as long as the flag is
set, dentry will
* remain negative unhashed with positive refcount
* never have its ->d_alias looked at
* never have its ->d_lru looked at
* never have its ->d_parent and ->d_name changed
Right now we have at most one such for any given parent directory.
With parallel lookups that restriction will weaken to
* only exist when parent is locked shared
* at most one with given (parent,name) pair (comparison of
names is according to ->d_compare())
* only exist when there's no hashed dentry with the same
(parent,name)
Transition will take the next several commits; unfortunately, we'll
only be able to switch to rwsem at the end of this series. The
reason for not making it a single patch is to simplify review.
New primitives: d_in_lookup() (a predicate checking if dentry is in
the in-lookup state) and d_lookup_done() (tells the system that
we are done with lookup and if it's still marked as in-lookup, it
should cease to be such).

Right now ext2_get_page() (and its analogues in a bunch of other filesystems)
relies upon the directory being locked - the way it sets and tests Checked and
Error bits would be racy without that. Switch to a slightly different scheme,
_not_ setting Checked in case of failure. That way the logics becomes
if Checked => OK
else if Error => fail
else if !validate => fail
else => OK
with validation setting Checked or Error on success and failure resp. and
returning which one had happened. Equivalent to the current logics, but unlike
the current logics not sensitive to the order of set_bit, test_bit getting
reordered by CPU, etc.

* if we have a hashed negative dentry and either CREAT|EXCL on
r/o filesystem, or CREAT|TRUNC on r/o filesystem, or CREAT|EXCL
with failing may_o_create(), we should fail with EROFS or the
error may_o_create() has returned, but not ENOENT. Which is what
the current code ends up returning.
* if we have CREAT|TRUNC hitting a regular file on a read-only
filesystem, we can't fail with EROFS here. At the very least,
not until we'd done follow_managed() - we might have a writable
file (or a device, for that matter) bound on top of that one.
Moreover, the code downstream will see that O_TRUNC and attempt
to grab the write access (*after* following possible mount), so
if we really should fail with EROFS, it will happen. No need
to do that inside atomic_open().
The real logics is much simpler than what the current code is
trying to do - if we decided to go for simple lookup, ended
up with a negative dentry *and* had create_error set, fail with
create_error. No matter whether we'd got that negative dentry
from lookup_real() or had found it in dcache.
