SUNRPC client: add interface for binding to a local address
In addition to binding to a local privileged port the NFS client should
allow binding to a specific local address. This is used by the server
for callbacks. The patch adds the necessary interface.

NFSv4: Make the NFS state model work with the nosharedcache mount option
Consider the case where the user has mounted the remote filesystem
server:/foo on the two local directories /bar and /baz using the
nosharedcache mount option. The files /bar/file and /baz/file are
represented by different inodes in the local namespace, but refer to the
same file /foo/file on the server.
Consider the case where a process opens both /bar/file and /baz/file, then
closes /bar/file: because the nfs4_state is not shared between /bar/file
and /baz/file, the kernel will see that the nfs4_state for /bar/file is no
longer referenced, so it will send off a CLOSE rpc call. Unless the
open_owners differ, then that CLOSE call will invalidate the open state on
/baz/file too.
Conclusion: we cannot share open state owners between two different
non-shared mount instances of the same filesystem.

NFS: Error when mounting the same filesystem with different options
Unless the user sets the NFS_MOUNT_NOSHAREDCACHE mount flag, we should
return EBUSY if the filesystem is already mounted on a superblock that
has set conflicting mount options.

NFS: Add the mount option "nosharecache"
Prior to David Howell's mount changes in 2.6.18, users who mounted
different directories which happened to be from the same filesystem on the
server would get different super blocks, and hence could choose different
mount options. As long as there were no hard linked files that crossed from
one subtree to another, this was quite safe.
Post the changes, if the two directories are on the same filesystem (have
the same 'fsid'), they will share the same super block, and hence the same
mount options.
Add a flag to allow users to elect not to share the NFS super block with
another mount point, even if the fsids are the same. This will allow
users to set different mount options for the two different super blocks, as
was previously possible. It is still up to the user to ensure that there
are no cache coherency issues when doing this, however the default
behaviour will be to share super blocks whenever two paths result in
the same fsid.

NFSv4: Don't call OPEN if we already have an open stateid for a file
If we already have a stateid with the correct open mode for a given file,
then we can reuse that stateid instead of re-issuing an OPEN call without
violating the close-to-open caching semantics.
NFSv4: Defer inode revalidation when setting up a delegation
Currently we force a synchronous call to __nfs_revalidate_inode() in
nfs_inode_set_delegation(). This not only ensures that we cannot call
nfs_inode_set_delegation from an asynchronous context, but it also slows
down any call to open().
There appear to be some rogue servers out there that issue multiple
delegations with different stateids for the same file. Ensure that when we
return delegations, we do so on a per-stateid basis rather than a per-file
basis.
NFSv4: set the delegation in nfs4_opendata_to_nfs4_state
This ensures that nfs4_open_release() and nfs4_open_confirm_release()
can now handle an eventual delegation that was returned with out open.
As such, it fixes a delegation "leak" when the user breaks out of an open
call.
The test for state->state == 0 does not tell you that the stateid is in the
process of being freed. It really tells you that the stateid is not yet
initialised...
Currently we do not check for the FMODE_EXEC flag as we should. For that
particular case, we need to perform an ACCESS call to the server in order
to check that the file is executable.

SUNRPC: fix hang due to eventd deadlock...
Brian Behlendorf writes:
The root cause of the NFS hang we were observing appears to be a rare
deadlock between the kernel provided usermodehelper API and the linux NFS
client. The deadlock can arise because both of these services use the
generic linux work queues. The usermodehelper API run the specified user
application in the context of the work queue. And NFS submits both cleanup
and reconnect work to the generic work queue for handling. Normally this
is fine but a deadlock can result in the following situation.
- NFS client is in a disconnected state
- [events/0] runs a usermodehelper app with an NFS dependent operation,
this triggers an NFS reconnect.
- NFS reconnect happens to be submitted to [events/0] work queue.
- Deadlock, the [events/0] work queue will never process the
reconnect because it is blocked on the previous NFS dependent
operation which will not complete.`
The solution is simply to run reconnect requests on rpciod.
