<content type='text'>
Fix afs_invalidatepage() to adjust the dirty region recorded in
page-&gt;private when truncating a page.  If the dirty region is entirely
removed, then the private data is cleared and the page dirty state is
cleared.

Without this, if the page is truncated and then expanded again by truncate,
zeros from the expanded, but no-longer dirty region may get written back to
the server if the page gets laundered due to a conflicting 3rd-party write.

It mustn't, however, shorten the dirty region of the page if that page is
still mmapped and has been marked dirty by afs_page_mkwrite(), so a flag is
stored in page-&gt;private to record this.

<content type='text'>
Fix afs to take a ref on a page when it sets PG_private on it and to drop
the ref when removing the flag.

Note that in afs_write_begin(), a lot of the time, PG_private is already
set on a page to which we're going to add some data.  In such a case, we
leave the bit set and mustn't increment the page count.

As suggested by Matthew Wilcox, use attach/detach_page_private() where
possible.

The prevention of splice-write without explicit ops made the

Fix by using iter_file_splice_write() for afs.

<title>afs: Fix use of afs_check_for_remote_deletion()</title>

afs_check_for_remote_deletion() checks to see if error ENOENT is returned
by the server in response to an operation and, if so, marks the primary
vnode as having been deleted as the FID is no longer valid.

However, it's being called from the operation success functions, where no
abort has happened - and if an inline abort is recorded, it's handled by
afs_vnode_commit_status().

Fix this by actually calling the operation aborted method if provided and
having that point to afs_check_for_remote_deletion().

Turn the afs_operation struct into the main way that most fileserver
operations are managed.  Various things are added to the struct, including
the following:

 (1) All the parameters and results of the relevant operations are moved
     into it, removing corresponding fields from the afs_call struct.
     afs_call gets a pointer to the op.

 (2) The target volume is made the main focus of the operation, rather than
     the target vnode(s), and a bunch of op-&gt;vnode-&gt;volume are made
     op-&gt;volume instead.

 (3) Two vnode records are defined (op-&gt;file[]) for the vnode(s) involved
     in most operations.  The vnode record (struct afs_vnode_param)
     contains:

	- The vnode pointer.

	- The fid of the vnode to be included in the parameters or that was
          returned in the reply (eg. FS.MakeDir).

	- The status and callback information that may be returned in the
     	  reply about the vnode.

	- Callback break and data version tracking for detecting
          simultaneous third-parth changes.

 (4) Pointers to dentries to be updated with new inodes.

 (5) An operations table pointer.  The table includes pointers to functions
     for issuing AFS and YFS-variant RPCs, handling the success and abort
     of an operation and handling post-I/O-lock local editing of a
     directory.

To make this work, the following function restructuring is made:

 (A) The rotation loop that issues calls to fileservers that can be found
     in each function that wants to issue an RPC (such as afs_mkdir()) is
     extracted out into common code, in a new file called fs_operation.c.

 (B) The rotation loops, such as the one in afs_mkdir(), are replaced with
     a much smaller piece of code that allocates an operation, sets the
     parameters and then calls out to the common code to do the actual
     work.

 (C) The code for handling the success and failure of an operation are
     moved into operation functions (as (5) above) and these are called
     from the core code at appropriate times.

 (D) The pseudo inode getting stuff used by the dynamic root code is moved
     over into dynroot.c.

 (E) struct afs_iget_data is absorbed into the operation struct and
     afs_iget() expects to be given an op pointer and a vnode record.

 (F) Point (E) doesn't work for the root dir of a volume, but we know the
     FID in advance (it's always vnode 1, unique 1), so a separate inode
     getter, afs_root_iget(), is provided to special-case that.

 (G) The inode status init/update functions now also take an op and a vnode
     record.

 (H) The RPC marshalling functions now, for the most part, just take an
     afs_operation struct as their only argument.  All the data they need
     is held there.  The result delivery functions write their answers
     there as well.

 (I) The call is attached to the operation and then the operation core does
     the waiting.

And then the new operation code is, for the moment, made to just initialise
the operation, get the appropriate vnode I/O locks and do the same rotation
loop as before.

This lays the foundation for the following changes in the future:

 (*) Overhauling the rotation (again).

 (*) Support for asynchronous I/O, where the fileserver rotation must be
     done asynchronously also.
