====================
rxrpc, afs: Fix probing issues

Here are some fixes for rxrpc and afs to fix issues in the RTT measuring in
rxrpc and thence the Volume Location server probing in afs:

 (1) Move the serial number of a received ACK into a local variable to
     simplify the next patch.

 (2) Fix the loss of RTT samples due to extra interposed ACKs causing
     baseline information to be discarded too early.  This is a particular
     problem for afs when it sends a single very short call to probe a
     server it hasn't talked to recently.

 (3) Fix rxrpc_kernel_get_srtt() to indicate whether it actually has seen
     any valid samples or not.

 (4) Remove a field that's set/woken, but never read/waited on.

 (5) Expose the RTT and other probe information through procfs to make
     debugging of this stuff easier.

 (6) Fix VL rotation in afs to only use summary information from VL probing
     and not the probe running state (which gets clobbered when next a
     probe is issued).

 (7) Fix VL rotation to actually return the error aggregated from the probe
     errors.

 "Improvements to ext4's block allocator performance for very large file

  Beyond that, a lot of bug fixes and cleanups. In particular, a number

The Rx protocol has a mechanism to help generate RTT samples that works by
a client transmitting a REQUESTED-type ACK when it receives a DATA packet
that has the REQUEST_ACK flag set.

The peer, however, may interpose other ACKs before transmitting the
REQUESTED-ACK, as can be seen in the following trace excerpt:

 rxrpc_tx_data: c=00000044 DATA d0b5ece8:00000001 00000001 q=00000001 fl=07
 rxrpc_rx_ack: c=00000044 00000001 PNG r=00000000 f=00000002 p=00000000 n=0
 rxrpc_rx_ack: c=00000044 00000002 REQ r=00000001 f=00000002 p=00000001 n=0
 ...

DATA packet 1 (q=xx) has REQUEST_ACK set (bit 1 of fl=xx).  The incoming
ping (labelled PNG) hard-acks the request DATA packet (f=xx exceeds the
sequence number of the DATA packet), causing it to be discarded from the Tx
ring.  The ACK that was requested (labelled REQ, r=xx references the serial
of the DATA packet) comes after the ping, but the sk_buff holding the
timestamp has gone and the RTT sample is lost.

This is particularly noticeable on RPC calls used to probe the service
offered by the peer.  A lot of peers end up with an unknown RTT because we
only ever sent a single RPC.  This confuses the server rotation algorithm.

Fix this by caching the information about the outgoing packet in RTT
calculations in the rxrpc_call struct rather than looking in the Tx ring.

A four-deep buffer is maintained and both REQUEST_ACK-flagged DATA and
PING-ACK transmissions are recorded in there.  When the appropriate
response ACK is received, the buffer is checked for a match and, if found,
an RTT sample is recorded.

If a received ACK refers to a packet with a later serial number than an
entry in the cache, that entry is presumed lost and the entry is made
available to record a new transmission.

ACKs types other than REQUESTED-type and PING-type cause any matching
sample to be cancelled as they don't necessarily represent a useful
measurement.

If there's no space in the buffer on ping/data transmission, the sample
base is discarded.

In the scenario of writing sparse files, the per-inode prealloc list may
be very long, resulting in high overhead for ext4_mb_use_preallocated().
To circumvent this problem, we limit the maximum length of per-inode
prealloc list to 512 and allow users to modify it.

After patching, we observed that the sys ratio of cpu has dropped, and
the system throughput has increased significantly. We created a process
to write the sparse file, and the running time of the process on the
fixed kernel was significantly reduced, as follows:

Running time on unfixed kernel：
[root@TENCENT64 ~]# time taskset 0x01 ./sparse /data1/sparce.dat
real    0m2.051s
user    0m0.008s
sys     0m2.026s

Running time on fixed kernel：
[root@TENCENT64 ~]# time taskset 0x01 ./sparse /data1/sparce.dat
real    0m0.471s
user    0m0.004s
