If an attempt to do pNFS fails, and we have to fall back to writing through
the MDS, then we may want to re-coalesce the requests that we already have
since the block size for the MDS read/writes may be different to that of
the DS read/writes.

<title>NFS: Cleanup of the nfs_pageio code in preparation for a pnfs bugfix</title>

We need to ensure that the layouts are set up before we can decide to
coalesce requests. To do so, we want to further split up the struct
nfs_pageio_descriptor operations into an initialisation callback, a
coalescing test callback, and a 'do i/o' callback.

This patch cleans up the existing callback methods before adding the
'initialisation' callback.

<title>NFS: Fix a hang in the writeback path</title>

Now that the inode scalability patches have been merged, it is no longer
safe to call igrab() under the inode-&gt;i_lock.
Now that we no longer call nfs_clear_request() until the nfs_page is
being freed, we know that we are always holding a reference to the
nfs_open_context, which again holds a reference to the path, and so
the inode cannot be freed until the last nfs_page has been removed
from the radix tree and freed.

We can therefore skip the igrab()/iput() altogether.

<title>NFSv4.1: add generic layer hooks for pnfs COMMIT</title>

<id>a861a1e1c398fe34701569fd8ac9225dfe0a9a7e</id>
<content type='text'>
We create three major hooks for the pnfs code.

pnfs_mark_request_commit() is called during writeback_done from
nfs_mark_request_commit, which gives the driver an opportunity to
claim it wants control over commiting a particular req.

pnfs_choose_commit_list() is called from nfs_scan_list
to choose which list a given req should be added to, based on
where we intend to send it for COMMIT.  It is up to the driver
to have preallocated list headers for each destination it may need.

pnfs_commit_list() is how the driver actually takes control, it is
used instead of nfs_commit_list().

In order to pass information between the above functions, we create
a union in nfs_page to hold a lseg (which is possible because the req is
not on any list while in transition), and add some flags to indicate
if we need to use the pnfs code.
