We limit the number of 'defer' requests to DFR_MAX.
The imposition of this limit is spread about a bit - sometime we don't
add new things to the list, sometimes we remove old things.
Also it is currently applied to requests which we are 'waiting' for
rather than 'deferring'. This doesn't seem ideal as 'waiting'
requests are naturally limited by the number of threads.
So gather the DFR_MAX handling code to one place and only apply it to
requests that are actually being deferred.
This means that not all 'cache_deferred_req' structures go on the
'cache_defer_list, so we need to be careful when adding and removing
things.

The return value from cache_defer_req is somewhat confusing.
Various different error codes are returned, but the single caller is
only interested in success or failure.
In fact it can measure this success or failure itself by checking
CACHE_PENDING, which makes the point of the code more explicit.
So change cache_defer_req to return 'void' and test CACHE_PENDING
after it completes, to see if the request was actually deferred or
not.
Similarly setup_deferral and cache_wait_req don't need a return value,
so make them void and remove some code.
The call to cache_revisit_request (to guard against a race) is only
needed for the second call to setup_deferral, so move it out of
setup_deferral to after that second call. With the first call the
race is handled differently (by explicitly calling
'wait_for_completion').

Commit 78155ed75f "nfsd4: distinguish
expired from stale stateids" attempted to distinguish expired and stale
stateid's using time information that may not have been completely
reliable, so I reverted it.
That was throwing out the baby with the bathwater; we still do want to
return expired, but let's do that using the simpler approach of just
assuming any stateid is expired if it looks like it was given out by the
current server instance, but we can't find it any more.
This may help clients that are recovering from network partitions.

Instead of creating the new rpc client from a regular server thread,
set a flag, kick off a null call, and allow the null call to do the work
of setting up the client on the callback workqueue.
Use a spinlock to ensure the callback work gets a consistent view of the
callback parameters.
This allows, for example, changing the callback from contexts where
sleeping is not allowed. I hope it will also keep the locking simple as
we add more session and trunking features, by serializing most of the
callback-specific work.
This also closes a small race where the the new cb_ident could be used
with an old connection (or vice-versa).

Unfortunately, spkm3 never got very far; while interoperability with one
other implementation was demonstrated at some point, problems were found
with the spec that were deemed not worth fixing.
The kernel code is useless on its own without nfs-utils patches which
were never merged into nfs-utils, and were only ever available from
citi.umich.edu. They appear not to have been updated since 2005.
Therefore it seems safe to assume that this code has no users, and never
will.

If we set up to wait for a cache item to be filled in, and then find
that it is no longer pending, it could be that some other thread is
in 'cache_revisit_request' and has moved our request to its 'pending' list.
So when our setup_deferral calls cache_revisit_request it will find nothing to
put on the pending list, and do nothing.
We then return from cache_wait_req, thus leaving the 'sleeper'
on-stack structure open to being corrupted by subsequent stack usage.
However that 'sleeper' could still be on the 'pending' list that the
other thread is looking at and so any corruption could cause it to behave badly.
To avoid this race we simply take the same path as if the
'wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout' was interrupted and if the
sleeper is no longer on the list (which it won't be) we wait on the
completion - which will ensure that any other cache_revisit_request
will have let go of the sleeper.
