This patch is a preparation necessary to remove the BKL from do_new_mount().
It explicitly adds calls to lock_kernel()/unlock_kernel() around
get_sb/fill_super operations for filesystems that still uses the BKL.
I've read through all the code formerly covered by the BKL inside
do_kern_mount() and have satisfied myself that it doesn't need the BKL
any more.
do_kern_mount() is already called without the BKL when mounting the rootfs
and in nfsctl. do_kern_mount() calls vfs_kern_mount(), which is called
from various places without BKL: simple_pin_fs(), nfs_do_clone_mount()
through nfs_follow_mountpoint(), afs_mntpt_do_automount() through
afs_mntpt_follow_link(). Both later functions are actually the filesystems
follow_link inode operation. vfs_kern_mount() is calling the specified
get_sb function and lets the filesystem do its job by calling the given
fill_super function.
Therefore I think it is safe to push down the BKL from the VFS to the
low-level filesystems get_sb/fill_super operation.
[arnd: do not add the BKL to those file systems that already
don't use it elsewhere]

We currently use struct backing_dev_info for various different purposes.
Originally it was introduced to describe a backing device which includes
an unplug and congestion function and various bits of readahead information
and VM-relevant flags. We're also using for tracking dirty inodes for
writeback.
To make writeback properly find all inodes we need to only access the
per-filesystem backing_device pointed to by the superblock in ->s_bdi
inside the writeback code, and not the instances pointeded to by
inode->i_mapping->backing_dev which can be overriden by special devices
or might not be set at all by some filesystems.
Long term we should split out the writeback-relevant bits of struct
backing_device_info (which includes more than the current bdi_writeback)
and only point to it from the superblock while leaving the traditional
backing device as a separate structure that can be overriden by devices.
The one exception for now is the block device filesystem which really
wants different writeback contexts for it's different (internal) inodes
to handle the writeout more efficiently. For now we do this with
a hack in fs-writeback.c because we're so late in the cycle, but in
the future I plan to replace this with a superblock method that allows
for multiple writeback contexts per filesystem.

cifs_reconnect_tcon is called from smb_init. After a successful
reconnect, cifs_reconnect_tcon will call reset_cifs_unix_caps. That
function will, in turn call CIFSSMBQFSUnixInfo and CIFSSMBSetFSUnixInfo.
Those functions also call smb_init.
It's possible for the session and tcon reconnect to succeed, and then
for another cifs_reconnect to occur before CIFSSMBQFSUnixInfo or
CIFSSMBSetFSUnixInfo to be called. That'll cause those functions to call
smb_init and cifs_reconnect_tcon again, ad infinitum...
Break the infinite recursion by having those functions use a new
smb_init variant that doesn't attempt to perform a reconnect.

Most of the extent handling code already does proper SMP locking, but
hfsplus_write_inode was calling into hfsplus_ext_write_extent without
taking the extents_lock. Fix this by splitting hfsplus_ext_write_extent
into an internal helper that expects the lock, and a public interface
that first acquires it.
Also add a few locking asserts and document the locking rules in
hfsplus_fs.h.

This patch fixes a GFS2 problem whereby the first rename after a
mount can result in a file system consistency error being flagged
improperly and cause the file system to withdraw. The problem is
that the rename code tries to run the rgrp list with function
gfs2_blk2rgrpd before the rgrp list is guaranteed to be read in
from disk. The patch makes the rename function hold the rindex
glock (as the gfs2_unlink code does today) which reads in the rgrp
list if need be. There were a total of three places in the rename
code that improperly referenced the rgrp list without the rindex
glock and this patch fixes all three.

ocfs2 fast symlinks are NUL terminated strings stored inline in the

Get a reference to the file early so we can eventually base the decision
about signing on the correct tcon. If that doesn't work for some reason,
then fall back to generic_writepages. That's just as likely to fail, but
it simplifies the error handling.
In truth, I'm not sure how that could occur anyway, so maybe a NULL
open_file here ought to be a BUG()?
After that, we drop the reference to the open_file and then we re-get
one prior to each WriteAndX call. This helps ensure that the filehandle
isn't held open any longer than necessary and that open files are
reclaimed prior to each write call.
