__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
could not sleep.  Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
context and callers that are not willing to sleep.  The latter should
clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake.  As clearing
__GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
wrong flags.  This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
them prevents it.

Add a new metadata file function, nilfs_mdt_find_block(), which finds
an existent block on a metadata file in a given range of blocks.  This
function skips continuous hole blocks efficiently by using
nilfs_bmap_seek_key().

This replaces all references of NILFS_I_NILFS(inode)-&gt;ns_bdev with
inode-&gt;i_sb-&gt;s_bdev and unfolds remaining uses of NILFS_I_NILFS inline
function.

Before 2.6.37, referring to a nilfs object from inodes needed a
conditional judgement, and NILFS_I_NILFS was helpful to simplify it.
But now we can simply do it by going through a super block instance
like inode-&gt;i_sb-&gt;s_fs_info.

This directly uses sb-&gt;s_fs_info to keep a nilfs filesystem object and
fully removes the intermediate nilfs_sb_info structure.  With this
change, the hierarchy of on-memory structures of nilfs will be
simplified as follows:

Before:
  super_block
       -&gt; nilfs_sb_info
             -&gt; the_nilfs
                   -&gt; cptree --+-&gt; nilfs_root (current file system)
                               +-&gt; nilfs_root (snapshot A)
                               +-&gt; nilfs_root (snapshot B)
                               :
             -&gt; nilfs_sc_info (log writer structure)
After:
  super_block
       -&gt; the_nilfs
             -&gt; cptree --+-&gt; nilfs_root (current file system)
                         +-&gt; nilfs_root (snapshot A)
                         +-&gt; nilfs_root (snapshot B)
                         :
             -&gt; nilfs_sc_info (log writer structure)

The reason why we didn't design so from the beginning is because the
initial shape also differed from the above.  The early hierachy was
composed of "per-mount-point" super_block -&gt; nilfs_sb_info pairs and a
shared nilfs object.  On the kernel 2.6.37, it was changed to the
current shape in order to unify super block instances into one per
device, and this cleanup became applicable as the result.
