85d1da67f7 [GFS2] Move glock hash table out of superblock
There are several reasons why we want to do this:
 - Firstly its large and thus we'll scale better with multiple
   GFS2 fs mounted at the same time
 - Secondly its easier to scale its size as required (thats a plan
   for later patches)
 - Thirdly, we can use kzalloc rather than vmalloc when allocating
   the superblock (its now only 4888 bytes)
 - Fourth its all part of my plan to eventually be able to use RCU
   with the glock hash.

e9fc2aa091 [GFS2] Update copyright, tidy up incore.h
As per comments from Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@linux01.gwdg.de> this
updates the copyright message to say "version" in full rather than
"v.2". Also incore.h has been updated to remove forward structure
declarations which are not required.

The gfs2_quota_lvb structure has now had endianess annotations added
to it. Also quota.c has been updated so that we now store the
lvb data locally in endian independant format to avoid needing
a structure in host endianess too. As a result the endianess
conversions are done as required at various points and thus the
conversion routines in lvb.[ch] are no longer required. I've
moved the one remaining constant in lvb.h thats used into lm.h
and removed the unused lvb.[ch].

I have not changed the HIF_ constants. That is left to a later patch
which I hope will unify the gh_flags and gh_iflags fields of the
struct gfs2_holder.

ec45d9f583 [GFS2] Use slab properly with glocks
We can take advantage of the slab allocator to ensure that all the list
heads and the spinlock (plus one or two other fields) are initialised
by slab to speed up allocation of glocks.

feaa7bba02 [GFS2] Fix unlinked file handling
This patch fixes the way we have been dealing with unlinked,
but still open files. It removes all limits (other than memory
for inodes, as per every other filesystem) on numbers of these
which we can support on GFS2. It also means that (like other
fs) its the responsibility of the last process to close the file
to deallocate the storage, rather than the person who did the
unlinking. Note that with GFS2, those two events might take place
on different nodes.

Also there are a number of other changes:

 o We use the Linux inode subsystem as it was intended to be
used, wrt allocating GFS2 inodes
 o The Linux inode cache is now the point which we use for
local enforcement of only holding one copy of the inode in
core at once (previous to this we used the glock layer).
 o We no longer use the unlinked "special" file. We just ignore it
completely. This makes unlinking more efficient.
 o We now use the 4th block allocation state. The previously unused
state is used to track unlinked but still open inodes.
 o gfs2_inoded is no longer needed
 o Several fields are now no longer needed (and removed) from the in
core struct gfs2_inode
 o Several fields are no longer needed (and removed) from the in core
superblock

There are a number of future possible optimisations and clean ups
which have been made possible by this patch.

320dd101e2 [GFS2] glock debugging and inode cache changes
This adds some extra debugging to glock.c and changes
inode.c's deallocation code to call the debugging code
at a suitable moment. I'm chasing down a particular bug
to do with deallocation at the moment and the code can
go again once the bug is fixed.

Also this includes the first part of some changes to unify
the Linux struct inode and GFS2's struct gfs2_inode. This
transformation will happen in small parts over the next short
period.

bd8968010a [GFS2] Remove semaphore.h from C files
We no longer use semaphores, everything has been converted to
mutex or rwsem, so we don't need to include this header any more.

419c93e0b6 [GFS2] Add gfs2meta filesystem
In order to separate out the filesystem's metadata from "normal"
files and directories, a new filesystem type has been created.
It is called gfs2meta and mounting it gives access to the files
that were previously under .gfs2_admin (well still are until mkfs
is altered, which is next on the adgenda).

Its not currently possible to mount both gfs2 and gfs2meta on the
same block device at the same time. A future patch will allow that
to happen.

5c676f6d35 [GFS2] Macros removal in gfs2.h
As suggested by Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>.

The DIV_RU macro is renamed DIV_ROUND_UP and and moved to kernel.h
The other macros are gone from gfs2.h as (although not requested
by Pekka Enberg) are a number of included header file which are now
included individually. The inode number comparison function is
now an inline function.

The DT2IF and IF2DT may be addressed in a future patch.
