When the last thread of nfsd exits, it shuts down all related sockets.
It currently uses svc_close_socket to do this, but that only is
immediately effective if the socket is not SK_BUSY.

If the socket is busy - i.e. if a request has arrived that has not yet
been processes - svc_close_socket is not effective and the shutdown
process spins.

So create a new svc_force_close_socket which removes the SK_BUSY flag
is set and then calls svc_close_socket.

Also change some open-codes loops in svc_destroy to use
list_for_each_entry_safe.

<title>knfsd: Fix a race in closing NFSd connections.</title>

If you lose this race, it can iput a socket inode twice and you
get a BUG in fs/inode.c

When I added the option for user-space to close a socket,
I added some cruft to svc_delete_socket so that I could call
that function when closing a socket per user-space request.

This was the wrong thing to do.  I should have just set SK_CLOSE
and let normal mechanisms do the work.

Not only wrong, but buggy.  The locking is all wrong and it openned
up a race where-by a socket could be closed twice.

So this patch:
  Introduces svc_close_socket which sets SK_CLOSE then either leave
  the close up to a thread, or calls svc_delete_socket if it can
  get SK_BUSY.

  Adds a bias to sk_busy which is removed when SK_DEAD is set,
  This avoid races around shutting down the socket.

  Changes several 'spin_lock' to 'spin_lock_bh' where the _bh 
  was missing.

<title>[PATCH] knfsd: fix an NFSD bug with full sized, non-page-aligned reads</title>

NFSd assumes that largest number of pages that will be needed for a
request+response is 2+N where N pages is the size of the largest permitted
read/write request.  The '2' are 1 for the non-data part of the request, and 1
for the non-data part of the reply.

However, when a read request is not page-aligned, and we choose to use
-&gt;sendfile to send it directly from the page cache, we may need N+1 pages to
hold the whole reply.  This can overflow and array and cause an Oops.

This patch increases size of the array for holding pages by one and makes sure
that entry is NULL when it is not in use.

Clean-up: eliminate xs_tcp_copy_data -- it's exactly the same logic as the
common routine skb_read_bits.  The UDP and TCP socket read code now share
the same routine for copying data into an xdr_buf.

Now that skb_read_bits() is exported, rename it to avoid confusing it with
a generic skb_* function.  As these functions are XDR-specific, they should
not have names that suggest they are of generic use.  Also rename
skb_read_and_csum_bits() to be consistent.
