[ Upstream commit 5175a5e76bbdf20a614fb47ce7a38f0f39e70226 ]

This is the revised patch for fixing rds-ping spinlock recursion
according to Venkat's suggestions.

RDS ping/pong over TCP feature has been broken for years(2.6.39 to
3.6.0) since we have to set TCP cork and call kernel_sendmsg() between
ping/pong which both need to lock "struct sock *sk". However, this
lock has already been hold before rds_tcp_data_ready() callback is
triggerred. As a result, we always facing spinlock resursion which
would resulting in system panic.

Given that RDS ping is only used to test the connectivity and not for
serious performance measurements, we can queue the pong transmit to
rds_wq as a delayed response.

These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using

These files were getting access to these two via the implicit
presence of module.h everywhere.  They aren't modules, so they
don't need the full module.h inclusion though.

<title>RDS: Let rds_message_alloc_sgs() return NULL</title>

Even with the previous fix, we still are reading the iovecs once
to determine SGs needed, and then again later on. Preallocating
space for sg lists as part of rds_message seemed like a good idea
but it might be better to not do this. While working to redo that
code, this patch attempts to protect against userspace rewriting
the rds_iovec array between the first and second accesses.

The consequences of this would be either a too-small or too-large
sg list array. Too large is not an issue. This patch changes all
callers of message_alloc_sgs to handle running out of preallocated
sgs, and fail gracefully.

<title>rds: fix rds_send_xmit() serialization</title>

rds_send_xmit() was changed to hold an interrupt masking spinlock instead of a
mutex so that it could be called from the IB receive tasklet path.  This broke
the TCP transport because its xmit method can block and masks and unmasks
interrupts.

This patch serializes callers to rds_send_xmit() with a simple bit instead of
the current spinlock or previous mutex.  This enables rds_send_xmit() to be
called from any context and to call functions which block.  Getting rid of the
c_send_lock exposes the bare c_lock acquisitions which are changed to block
interrupts.

A waitqueue is added so that rds_conn_shutdown() can wait for callers to leave
rds_send_xmit() before tearing down partial send state.  This lets us get rid
of c_senders.

rds_send_xmit() is changed to check the conn state after acquiring the
RDS_IN_XMIT bit to resolve races with the shutdown path.  Previously both
worked with the conn state and then the lock in the same order, allowing them
to race and execute the paths concurrently.

rds_send_reset() isn't racing with rds_send_xmit() now that rds_conn_shutdown()
properly ensures that rds_send_xmit() can't start once the conn state has been
changed.  We can remove its previous use of the spinlock.

Finally, c_send_generation is redundant.  Callers can race to test the c_flags
bit by simply retrying instead of racing to test the c_send_generation atomic.
