91c6cc9b5c mm: zcache/tmem/cleancache: s/flush/invalidate/
Complete the renaming from "flush" to "invalidate" across
both tmem frontends (cleancache and frontswap) and both tmem backends
(Xen and zcache), as required by akpm.

This change is completely cosmetic.

7ada4db886 vfs: count unlinked inodes
Add a new counter to the superblock that keeps track of unlinked but
not yet deleted inodes.

Do not WARN_ON if set_nlink is called with zero count, just do a
ratelimited printk.  This happens on xfs and probably other
filesystems after an unclean shutdown when the filesystem reads inodes
which already have zero i_nlink.  Reported by Christoph Hellwig.

4ed5e82fe7 vfs: protect remounting superblock read-only
Currently remouting superblock read-only is racy in a major way.

With the per mount read-only infrastructure it is now possible to
prevent most races, which this patch attempts.

Before starting the remount read-only, iterate through all mounts
belonging to the superblock and if none of them have any pending
writes, set sb->s_readonly_remount.  This indicates that remount is in
progress and no further write requests are allowed.  If the remount
succeeds set MS_RDONLY and reset s_readonly_remount.

If the remounting is unsuccessful just reset s_readonly_remount.
This can result in transient EROFS errors, despite the fact the
remount failed.  Unfortunately hodling off writes is difficult as
remount itself may touch the filesystem (e.g. through load_nls())
which would deadlock.

A later patch deals with delayed writes due to nlink going to zero.

07d106d0a3 vfs: fix up ENOIOCTLCMD error handling
We're doing some odd things there, which already messes up various users
(see the net/socket.c code that this removes), and it was going to add
yet more crud to the block layer because of the incorrect error code
translation.

ENOIOCTLCMD is not an error return that should be returned to user mode
from the "ioctl()" system call, but it should *not* be translated as
EINVAL ("Invalid argument").  It should be translated as ENOTTY
("Inappropriate ioctl for device").

That EINVAL confusion has apparently so permeated some code that the
block layer actually checks for it, which is sad.  We continue to do so
for now, but add a big comment about how wrong that is, and we should
remove it entirely eventually.  In the meantime, this tries to keep the
changes localized to just the EINVAL -> ENOTTY fix, and removing code
that makes it harder to do the right thing.

nr_frags can be 8 bits since 256 is plenty of fragments. This allows it to be
packed with tx_flags.

Also by moving ip6_frag_id and dataref (both 4 bytes) next to each other we can
avoid a hole between ip6_frag_id and frag_list on 64 bit systems.

eeca6688d6 net_sched: red: split red_parms into parms and vars
This patch splits the red_parms structure into two components.

One holding the RED 'constant' parameters, and one containing the
variables.

This permits a size reduction of GRED qdisc, and is a preliminary step
to add an optional RED unit to SFQ.

SFQRED will have a single red_parms structure shared by all flows, and a
private red_vars per flow.

18cb809850 net_sched: sfq: extend limits
SFQ as implemented in Linux is very limited, with at most 127 flows
and limit of 127 packets. [ So if 127 flows are active, we have one
packet per flow ]

This patch brings to SFQ following features to cope with modern needs.

- Ability to specify a smaller per flow limit of inflight packets.
    (default value being at 127 packets)

- Ability to have up to 65408 active flows (instead of 127)

- Ability to have head drops instead of tail drops
  (to drop old packets from a flow)

Example of use : No more than 20 packets per flow, max 8000 flows, max
20000 packets in SFQ qdisc, hash table of 65536 slots.

tc qdisc add ... sfq \
        flows 8000 \
        depth 20 \
        headdrop \
        limit 20000 \
	divisor 65536

Ram usage :

2 bytes per hash table entry (instead of previous 1 byte/entry)
32 bytes per flow on 64bit arches, instead of 384 for QFQ, so much
better cache hit ratio.
