Pull Ceph updates for 3.4-rc1 from Sage Weil:
 "Alex has been busy.  There are a range of rbd and libceph cleanups,
  especially surrounding device setup and teardown, and a few critical
  fixes in that code.  There are more cleanups in the messenger code,
  virtual xattrs, a fix for CRC calculation/checks, and lots of other
  miscellaneous stuff.

  There's a patch from Amon Ott to make inos behave a bit better on
  32-bit boxes, some decode check fixes from Xi Wang, and network
  throttling fix from Jim Schutt, and a couple RBD fixes from Josh
  Durgin.

  No new functionality, just a lot of cleanup and bug fixing."

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sage/ceph-client: (65 commits)
  rbd: move snap_rwsem to the device, rename to header_rwsem
  ceph: fix three bugs, two in ceph_vxattrcb_file_layout()
  libceph: isolate kmap() call in write_partial_msg_pages()
  libceph: rename "page_shift" variable to something sensible
  libceph: get rid of zero_page_address
  libceph: only call kernel_sendpage() via helper
  libceph: use kernel_sendpage() for sending zeroes
  libceph: fix inverted crc option logic
  libceph: some simple changes
  libceph: small refactor in write_partial_kvec()
  libceph: do crc calculations outside loop
  libceph: separate CRC calculation from byte swapping
  libceph: use "do" in CRC-related Boolean variables
  ceph: ensure Boolean options support both senses
  libceph: a few small changes

In ceph_vxattrcb_file_layout(), there is a check to determine
whether a preferred PG should be formatted into the output buffer.
That check assumes that a preferred PG number of 0 indicates "no
preference," but that is wrong.  No preference is indicated by a
negative (specifically, -1) PG number.

In addition, if that condition yields true, the preferred value
is formatted into a sized buffer, but the size consumed by the
earlier snprintf() call is not accounted for, opening up the
possibilty of a buffer overrun.

Finally, in ceph_vxattrcb_dir_rctime() where the nanoseconds part of
the time displayed did not include leading 0's, which led to
erroneous (sub-second portion of) time values being shown.

This fixes these three issues:

Many ceph-related Boolean options offer the ability to both enable
and disable a feature.  For all those that don't offer this, add
a new option so that they do.

Note that ceph_show_options()--which reports mount options currently
in effect--only reports the option if it is different from the
default value.

ceph_parse_options() takes the address of a pointer as an argument
and uses it to return the address of an allocated structure if
successful.  With this interface is not evident at call sites that
the pointer is always initialized.  Change the interface to return
the address instead (or a pointer-coded error code) to make the
validity of the returned pointer obvious.

All names defined in the directory and file virtual extended
attribute tables are constant, and the size of each is known at
compile time.  So there's no need to compute their length every
time any file's attribute is listed.

Record the length of each string and use it when needed to determine
the space need to represent them.  In addition, compute the
aggregate size of strings in each table just once at initialization
time.

<title>ceph: encode type in vxattr callback routines</title>

The names of the callback functions used for virtual extended
attributes are based only on the last component of the attribute
name.  Because of the way these are defined, this precludes allowing
a single (lowest) attribute name for different callbacks, dependent
on the type of file being operated on.  (For example, it might be
nice to support both "ceph.dir.layout" and "ceph.file.layout".)

Just change the callback names to avoid this problem.

Entries in the ceph virtual extended attribute tables all follow a
distinct pattern in their definition.  Enforce this pattern through
the use of a macro.

Also, a null name field signals the end of the table, so make that
be the first field in the ceph_vxattr_cb structure.
