In nfs4_callback_devicenotify(), if we don't find a matching entry for
the deviceid, we're left with a pointer to 'struct nfs_server' that
actually points to the list of super blocks associated with our struct
nfs_client.
Furthermore, even if we have a valid pointer, nothing pins the super
block, and so the struct nfs_server could end up getting freed while
we're using it.
Since all we want is a pointer to the struct pnfs_layoutdriver_type,
let's skip all the iteration over super blocks, and just use APIs to
find the layout driver directly.

To move the list iterator variable into the list_for_each_entry_*()
macro in the future it should be avoided to use the list iterator
variable after the loop body.
To *never* use the list iterator variable after the loop it was
concluded to use a separate iterator variable instead of a
found boolean [1].
This removes the need to use a found variable and simply checking if
the variable was set, can determine if the break/goto was hit.

xprt_destory() claims XPRT_LOCKED and then calls del_timer_sync().
Both xprt_unlock_connect() and xprt_release() call
->release_xprt()
which drops XPRT_LOCKED and *then* xprt_schedule_autodisconnect()
which calls mod_timer().
This may result in mod_timer() being called *after* del_timer_sync().
When this happens, the timer may fire long after the xprt has been freed,
and run_timer_softirq() will probably crash.
The pairing of ->release_xprt() and xprt_schedule_autodisconnect() is
always called under ->transport_lock. So if we take ->transport_lock to
call del_timer_sync(), we can be sure that mod_timer() will run first
(if it runs at all).

The commit handling code is not safe against memory-pressure deadlocks
when writing to swap. In particular, nfs_commitdata_alloc() blocks
indefinitely waiting for memory, and this can consume all available
workqueue threads.
swap-out most likely uses STABLE writes anyway as COND_STABLE indicates
that a stable write should be used if the write fits in a single
request, and it normally does. However if we ever swap with a small
wsize, or gather unusually large numbers of pages for a single write,
this might change.
For safety, make it explicit in the code that direct writes used for swap
must always use FLUSH_STABLE.

1/ Taking the i_rwsem for swap IO triggers lockdep warnings regarding

eventuate if a buffered read on the swapfile was attempted.
We don't need coherence with the page cache for a swap file, and
buffered writes are forbidden anyway. There is no other need for
i_rwsem during direct IO. So never take it for swap_rw()
2/ generic_write_checks() explicitly forbids writes to swap, and

rpc tasks can be marked as RPC_TASK_SWAPPER. This causes GFP_MEMALLOC
to be used for some allocations. This is needed in some cases, but not
in all where it is currently provided, and in some where it isn't
provided.
Currently *all* tasks associated with a rpc_client on which swap is
enabled get the flag and hence some GFP_MEMALLOC support.
GFP_MEMALLOC is provided for ->buf_alloc() but only swap-writes need it.
However xdr_alloc_bvec does not get GFP_MEMALLOC - though it often does
need it.
xdr_alloc_bvec is called while the XPRT_LOCK is held. If this blocks,
then it blocks all other queued tasks. So this allocation needs
GFP_MEMALLOC for *all* requests, not just writes, when the xprt is used
for any swap writes.
Similarly, if the transport is not connected, that will block all
requests including swap writes, so memory allocations should get
GFP_MEMALLOC if swap writes are possible.
So with this patch:
1/ we ONLY set RPC_TASK_SWAPPER for swap writes.
2/ __rpc_execute() sets PF_MEMALLOC while handling any task
with RPC_TASK_SWAPPER set, or when handling any task that
holds the XPRT_LOCKED lock on an xprt used for swap.
This removes the need for the RPC_IS_SWAPPER() test
in ->buf_alloc handlers.
3/ xprt_prepare_transmit() sets PF_MEMALLOC after locking
any task to a swapper xprt. __rpc_execute() will clear it.
3/ PF_MEMALLOC is set for all the connect workers.

NFS_RPC_SWAPFLAGS is only used for READ requests.
It sets RPC_TASK_SWAPPER which gives some memory-allocation priority to
requests. This is not needed for swap READ - though it is for writes
where it is set via a different mechanism.
RPC_TASK_ROOTCREDS causes the 'machine' credential to be used.
This is not needed as the root credential is saved when the swap file is
opened, and this is used for all IO.
So NFS_RPC_SWAPFLAGS isn't needed, and as it is the only user of
RPC_TASK_ROOTCREDS, that isn't needed either.

Currently, tasks marked as "swapper" tasks get put to the front of
non-priority rpc_queues, and are sorted earlier than non-swapper tasks on
the transport's ->xmit_queue.
This is pointless as currently *all* tasks for a mount that has swap
enabled on *any* file are marked as "swapper" tasks. So the net result
is that the non-priority rpc_queues are reverse-ordered (LIFO).
This scheduling boost is not necessary to avoid deadlocks, and hurts
fairness, so remove it. If there were a need to expedite some requests,
the tk_priority mechanism is a more appropriate tool.

Instead of using a linear index to address the pages, use the cookie of

This allows us to avoid re-reading the entire cache on a seekdir() type
of operation. The latter is very common when re-exporting NFS, and is a
major performance drain.
The change does affect our duplicate cookie detection, since we can no
longer rely on the page index as a linear offset for detecting whether
we looped backwards. However since we no longer do a linear search
through all the pages on each call to nfs_readdir(), this is less of a
concern than it was previously.
The other downside is that invalidate_mapping_pages() no longer can use
the page index to avoid clearing pages that have been read. A subsequent
patch will restore the functionality this provides to the 'ls -l'
heuristic.
