transaction within each such operation may involve multiple locking of AGF
buffer. While the freeing extent function has sorted the extents based on
AGF number before entering into transaction, however, when the file system
space is very limited, the allocation of space would try every AGF to get
space allocated, this could potentially cause out-of-order locking, thus
deadlock could happen. This fix mitigates the scarce space for allocation
by setting aside a few blocks without reservation, and avoid deadlock by
maintaining ascending order of AGF locking.

xfs_swap_extents() via the ioops vector. Change all calls that may modify
the in-core extent map for the data fork to go through the ioops vector.
This allows a cache of extent map data to be kept in sync.

Looking at the reiser4 crash, I found a leak in debugfs. In
debugfs_mknod(), we create the inode before checking if the dentry
already has one attached. We don't free it if that is the case.
These bugs happen quite often, I'm starting to think we should disallow
such coding in CodingStyle.

NTLMv2 authentication (stronger authentication than default NTLM) which
many servers support now works. There was a problem with the construction
of the security blob in the older code. Currently requires
/proc/fs/cifs/Experimental to be set to 2
and
/proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags to be set to 0x4004 (to require using
NTLMv2 instead of default of NTLM)
Next we will check signing to make sure optional NTLMv2 packet signing also
works.

We're presently running lock_kernel() under fs_lock via nfs's ->permission

problem was introduced in the openat() patchset.
We should not need to hold the current->fs->lock for a codepath that doesn't
use current->fs.

It's used from the initfunc in case of failure too. We could actually do
with an '__initexit' for this kind of thing -- when built in to the
kernel, it could do with being dropped with the init text. We _could_
actually just use __init for it, but that would break if/when we start
dropping init text from modules. So let's just leave it as it was for now,
and mutter a little more about random 'janitorial' fixes from people who
aren't paying attention to what they're doing.

the old mapping of this was to ENODEV (instead of ENXIO) - but
ENODEV is what mount returns when the cifs driver will not load
so change this to map to ENXIO (which was what the equivalent
condition returned for mapping errors from more modern servers)

cifs should not be overwriting an element of the aops structure, since the
structure is shared by all cifs inodes. Instead define a separate aops
structure to suit each purpose.

Wasn't able to reproduce a hard hang, but was able to get an oops if
suspended the machine during a copy to the cifs mount. This led to some
things hanging, including a "sync". Also got I/O errors when trying to
access the mount afterwards (even when didn't see the oops), and had
to unmount and remount in order to access the filesystem.
This patch fixed the oops.

Hopefully the last iteration on this!
The handling of out of band data on NAND was accompanied by tons of fruitless
discussions and halfarsed patches to make it work for a particular
problem. Sufficiently annoyed by I all those "I know it better" mails and the
resonable amount of discarded "it solves my problem" patches, I finally decided
to go for the big rework. After removing the _ecc variants of mtd read/write
functions the solution to satisfy the various requirements was to refactor the
read/write _oob functions in mtd.
The major change is that read/write_oob now takes a pointer to an operation
descriptor structure "struct mtd_oob_ops".instead of having a function with at
least seven arguments.
read/write_oob which should probably renamed to a more descriptive name, can do
the following tasks:
- read/write out of band data
- read/write data content and out of band data
- read/write raw data content and out of band data (ecc disabled)
struct mtd_oob_ops has a mode field, which determines the oob handling mode.
Aside of the MTD_OOB_RAW mode, which is intended to be especially for
diagnostic purposes and some internal functions e.g. bad block table creation,
the other two modes are for mtd clients:
MTD_OOB_PLACE puts/gets the given oob data exactly to/from the place which is
described by the ooboffs and ooblen fields of the mtd_oob_ops strcuture. It's
up to the caller to make sure that the byte positions are not used by the ECC
placement algorithms.
MTD_OOB_AUTO puts/gets the given oob data automaticaly to/from the places in
the out of band area which are described by the oobfree tuples in the ecclayout
data structre which is associated to the devicee.
The decision whether data plus oob or oob only handling is done depends on the
setting of the datbuf member of the data structure. When datbuf == NULL then
the internal read/write_oob functions are selected, otherwise the read/write
data routines are invoked.
Tested on a few platforms with all variants. Please be aware of possible
regressions for your particular device / application scenario
Disclaimer: Any whining will be ignored from those who just contributed "hot
air blurb" and never sat down to tackle the underlying problem of the mess in
the NAND driver grown over time and the big chunk of work to fix up the
existing users. The problem was not the holiness of the existing MTD
interfaces. The problems was the lack of time to go for the big overhaul. It's
easy to add more mess to the existing one, but it takes alot of effort to go
for a real solution.
Improvements and bugfixes are welcome!
