NFS: Fix up the dirty page accounting
There is now no reason to account for the dirty pages in the NFS code,
since the VM code will now do it for us via __set_page_dirty_nobuffers(),
and set_page_writeback().
We still need to keep the accounting of stable writes, though.

NFS: Add nfs_set_page_dirty()
We will want to allow nfs_writepage() to distinguish between pages that
have been marked as dirty by the VM, and those that have been marked as
dirty by nfs_updatepage().
In the former case, the entire page will want to be written out, and so any
requests that were pending need to be flushed out first.

NFS: Fix asynchronous read error handling
We must always call ->read_done() before we truncate the page data, or
decide to flag an error. The reasons are that
in NFSv2, ->read_done() is where the eof flag gets set.
in NFSv3/v4 ->read_done() handles EJUKEBOX-type errors, and
v4 state recovery.
However, we need to mark the pages as uptodate before we deal with short
read errors, since we may need to modify the nfs_read_data arguments.
We therefore split the current nfs_readpage_result() into two parts:
nfs_readpage_result(), which calls ->read_done() etc, and
nfs_readpage_retry(), which subsequently handles short reads.
Note: Removing the code that retries in case of a short read also fixes a
bug in nfs_direct_read_result(), which used to return a corrupted number of
bytes.

NFS Exclusive open not supported bug
When trying to open a file with the O_EXCL flag over NFS on a server that does
not support exclusive mode, the file does not open. The reason,
rpc_call_sync returns a errno number, and not the nfs error number. I fixed
it by changing the status check in nfs3proc.c. Either this is how it should
be fixed, or rpc_call_sync should be fixed to return the NFS error.

SUNRPC: Fix a potential race in rpc_wake_up_task()
Use RCU to ensure that we can safely call rpc_finish_wakeup after we've
called __rpc_do_wake_up_task. If not, there is a theoretical race, in which
the rpc_task finishes executing, and gets freed first.
The sunrpc scheduler contains a race condition that can let an RPC
task end up being neither running nor on any wait queue. The race takes
place between rpc_make_runnable (called from rpc_wake_up_task) and
__rpc_execute under the following condition:
First __rpc_execute calls tk_action which puts the task on some wait
queue. The task is dequeued by another process before __rpc_execute
continues its execution. While executing rpc_make_runnable exactly after
setting the task `running' bit and before clearing the `queued' bit
__rpc_execute picks up execution, clears `running' and subsequently
both functions fall through, both under the false assumption somebody
else took the job.
Swapping rpc_test_and_set_running with rpc_clear_queued in
rpc_make_runnable fixes that hole. This introduces another possible
race condition that can be handled by checking for `queued' after
setting the `running' bit.
Bug noticed on a 4-way x86_64 system under XEN with an NFSv4 server
on the same physical machine, apparently one of the few ways to hit
this race condition at all.

megaraid's MMIO RD*/WR* macros directly call readl() and writel() with

setup is also OK because the variable can hold an ioremap cookie /or/ a

However, to fix the warning thrown when readl() and writel() are passed
an unsigned long cookie, I introduce 'void __iomem *mmio_base', holding

cause an oops whenever these MMIO-only functions are ever accidentally

s->functions needs to be initialized earlier, for the "let's see
how high it increases" approach means that pcmcia_request_irq()
(which makes use of this value) is confused, and might request
an exclusive IRQ first even though it is not supposed to.
Also, a CIS override autoloaded using the firmware loader may
allow for the use of more or less functions in a multifunction
card. Therefore, we may need to schedule a call to add this
second function later on, or simply remove the other function
(it's always the first -valid- function which reaches this
codepath).
