This patch makes UFS stop using the VFS '-&gt;write_super()' method along with
the 's_dirt' superblock flag, because they are on their way out.

The way we implement this is that we schedule a delay job instead relying on
's_dirt' and '-&gt;write_super()'.

The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the
'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds and
writes out all dirty superblocks using the '-&gt;write_super()' call-back.  But the
problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every
5 seconds, even if there are no diry superblocks, or there are no client
file-systems which would need this (e.g., btrfs does not use
'-&gt;write_super()'). So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to make
file-systems to stop using the '-&gt;write_super()' VFS service, and then remove
it together with the kernel thread.

Tested using fsstress from the LTP project.

<title>ufs: fix truncated values handling 64 bit metadata</title>

Originally i_lastfrag was 32 bits but then we added support for handling
64 bit metadata and it became a 64 bit variable.  That was during 2007, in
54fb996ac15c "[PATCH] ufs2 write: block allocation update".  Unfortunately
these casts got left behind so the value got truncated to 32 bit again.

<title>remove SWRITE* I/O types</title>

These flags aren't real I/O types, but tell ll_rw_block to always
lock the buffer instead of giving up on a failed trylock.

Instead add a new write_dirty_buffer helper that implements this semantic
and use it from the existing SWRITE* callers.  Note that the ll_rw_block
code had a bug where it didn't promote WRITE_SYNC_PLUG properly, which
this patch fixes.

In the ufs code clean up the helper that used to call ll_rw_block
to mirror sync_dirty_buffer, which is the function it implements for
compound buffers.

UFS quota is non-functional at least since 2.6.12 because dq_op was set
to NULL. Since the filesystem exists mainly to allow cooperation with Solaris
and quota format isn't standard, just remove the dead code.

<title>dquot: cleanup space allocation / freeing routines</title>

Get rid of the alloc_space, free_space, reserve_space, claim_space and
release_rsv dquot operations - they are always called from the filesystem
and if a filesystem really needs their own (which none currently does)
it can just call into it's own routine directly.

Move shared logic into the common __dquot_alloc_space,
dquot_claim_space_nodirty and __dquot_free_space low-level methods,
and rationalize the wrappers around it to move as much as possible
code into the common block for CONFIG_QUOTA vs not.  Also rename
all these helpers to be named dquot_* instead of vfs_dq_*.

Per previous discussions about cleaning up ufs_fs.h, people just want
this straight up dropped from userspace export.  The only remaining
consumer (silo) has been fixed a while ago to not rely on this header.
This allows use to move it completely from include/linux/ to fs/ufs/
seeing as how the only in-kernel consumer is fs/ufs/.
