The attached patch makes the kAFS filesystem in fs/afs/ use FS-Cache, and
through it any attached caches.  The kAFS filesystem will use caching
automatically if it's available.

<title>vfs: Add 64 bit i_version support</title>

<id>7a224228ed79d587ece2304869000aad1b8e97dd</id>
<content type='text'>
The i_version field of the inode is changed to be a 64-bit counter that
is set on every inode creation and that is incremented every time the
inode data is modified (similarly to the "ctime" time-stamp).
The aim is to fulfill a NFSv4 requirement for rfc3530.
This first part concerns the vfs, it converts the 32-bit i_version in
the generic inode to a 64-bit, a flag is added in the super block in
order to check if the feature is enabled and the i_version is
incremented in the vfs.

<title>Detach sched.h from mm.h</title>

<id>e8edc6e03a5c8562dc70a6d969f732bdb355a7e7</id>
<content type='text'>
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

Cross-compile tested on

	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
	alpha alpha-up
	arm
	i386 i386-up i386-defconfig i386-allnoconfig
	ia64 ia64-up

	sparc64 sparc64-up
	um-x86_64
	x86_64 x86_64-up x86_64-defconfig x86_64-allnoconfig

as well as my two usual configs.

Fix a couple of problems with unlinking AFS files.

 (1) The parent directory wasn't being updated properly between unlink() and
     the following lookup().

     It seems that, for some reason, invalidate_remote_inode() wasn't
     discarding the directory contents correctly, so this patch calls
     invalidate_inode_pages2() instead on non-regular files.

 (2) afs_vnode_deleted_remotely() should handle vnodes that don't have a
     source server recorded without oopsing.

<title>AFS: implement basic file write support</title>

<content type='text'>
Implement support for writing to regular AFS files, including:

 (1) write

 (2) truncate

 (3) fsync, fdatasync

 (4) chmod, chown, chgrp, utime.

AFS writeback attempts to batch writes into as chunks as large as it can manage
up to the point that it writes back 65535 pages in one chunk or it meets a
locked page.

Furthermore, if a page has been written to using a particular key, then should
another write to that page use some other key, the first write will be flushed
before the second is allowed to take place.  If the first write fails due to a
security error, then the page will be scrapped and reread before the second
write takes place.

If a page is dirty and the callback on it is broken by the server, then the
dirty data is not discarded (same behaviour as NFS).

Shared-writable mappings are not supported by this patch.

 (1) Assert RCU barriers on module exit to make sure RCU has finished with
     callbacks in this module.

 (2) Correctly handle the AFS server returning a zero-length read.

 (3) Split out data zapping calls into one function (afs_zap_data).

 (4) Rename some afs_file_*() functions to afs_*() where they apply to
     non-regular files too.

 (5) Be consistent about the presentation of volume ID:vnode ID in debugging

Also:

 (1) Fix dentry and inode revalidation.  d_revalidate should only look at
