As long as the directory contents haven't changed, we should just let the
path walk proceed to cross the mountpoint. Apart from being an optimisation
in the case of 'nohide' mountpoint traversals, it also fixes an issue with
referrals: referral inodes don't have valid filehandles, so calling
nfs_revalidate_inode() on them is a bug.

When we detect that we've crossed a mountpoint on the remote server, we
must take care not to use that inode to revalidate the fsid on our
current superblock. To do so, we label the inode as a remote mountpoint,
and check for that in nfs_update_inode().

If the radix_tree_preload() fails, we need to destroy the inode we just
read in before trying again. This could leak xfs_vnode structures when
there is memory pressure. Noticed by Christoph Hellwig.

wakeups

Idle state is not being detected properly by the xfsaild push code. The
current idle state is detected by an empty list which may never happen
with mostly idle filesystem or one using lazy superblock counters. A
single dirty item in the list that exists beyond the push target can
result repeated looping attempting to push up to the target because it
fails to check if the push target has been acheived or not.

Fix by considering a dirty list with everything past the target as an idle
state and set the timeout appropriately.

<title>NFS: use new LSM interfaces to explicitly set mount options</title>

NFS and SELinux worked together previously because SELinux had NFS
specific knowledge built in.  This design was approved by both groups
back in 2004 but the recent NFS changes to use nfs_parsed_mount_data and
the usage of nfs_clone_mount_data showed this to be a poor fragile
solution.  This patch fixes the NFS functionality regression by making
use of the new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to explicitly set its own
mount options.

The explicit setting of mount options is done in the nfs get_sb
functions which are called before the generic vfs hooks try to set mount
options for filesystems which use text mount data.

This does not currently support NFSv4 as that functionality did not
exist in previous kernels and thus there is no regression.  I will be
adding the needed code, which I believe to be the exact same as the v3
code, in nfs4_get_sb for 2.6.26.

<title>LSM/SELinux: Interfaces to allow FS to control mount options</title>

Introduce new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to deal with their own mount
options.  This includes a new string parsing function exported from the
LSM that an FS can use to get a security data blob and a new security
data blob.  This is particularly useful for an FS which uses binary
mount data, like NFS, which does not pass strings into the vfs to be
handled by the loaded LSM.  Also fix a BUG() in both SELinux and SMACK
when dealing with binary mount data.  If the binary mount data is less
than one page the copy_page() in security_sb_copy_data() can cause an
illegal page fault and boom.  Remove all NFSisms from the SELinux code
since they were broken by past NFS changes.
