This adds an increment of the link count when we add a new directory
entry, if that entry is itself a directory. This means that we no
longer need separate code to perform this operation.
Now that both adding and removing directory entries automatically
update the parent directory's link count if required, that makes
the code shorter and simpler than before.

When we remove an entry from a directory, we can save ourselves
some trouble if we know the type of the entry in question, since
if it is itself a directory, we can update the link count of the
parent at the same time as removing the directory entry.
In addition this patch also merges the rmdir and unlink code which
was almost identical anyway. This eliminates the calls to remove
the . and .. directory entries on each rmdir (not needed since the
directory will be deallocated, anyway) which was the only thing preventing
passing the dentry to gfs2_dir_del(). The passing of the dentry
rather than just the name allows us to figure out the type of the entry
which is being removed, and thus adjust the link count when required.

Rather than calculating the qstrs for . and .. each time
we need them, its better to keep a constant version of
these and just refer to them when required.

gfs2_lock_fs_check_clean() should not be calling gfs2_jindex_hold()
since it doesn't work like rindex hold, despite the comment. That
allows gfs2_jindex_hold() to be moved into ops_fstype.c where it
can be made static.

This patch cleans up the inode number handling code. The main difference
is that instead of looking up the inodes using a struct gfs2_inum_host
we now use just the no_addr member of this structure. The tests relating
to no_formal_ino can then be done by the calling code. This has
advantages in that we want to do different things in different code
paths if the no_formal_ino doesn't match. In the NFS patch we want to
return -ESTALE, but in the ->lookup() path, its a bug in the fs if the
no_formal_ino doesn't match and thus we can withdraw in this case.
In order to later fix bz #201012, we need to be able to look up an inode
without knowing no_formal_ino, as the only information that is known to
us is the on-disk location of the inode in question.
This patch will also help us to fix bz #236099 at a later date by
cleaning up a lot of the code in that area.
There are no user visible changes as a result of this patch and there
are no changes to the on-disk format either.

This removes the extra filldir callback which gfs2 was using to
enclose an attempt at readahead for inodes during readdir. The
code was too complicated and also hurts performance badly in the
case that the getdents64/readdir call isn't being followed by
stat() and it wasn't even getting it right all the time when it
was.
As a result, on my test box an "ls" of a directory containing 250000
files fell from about 7mins (freshly mounted, so nothing cached) to
between about 15 to 25 seconds. When the directory content was cached,
the time taken fell from about 3mins to about 4 or 5 seconds.
Interestingly in the cached case, running "ls -l" once reduced the time
taken for subsequent runs of "ls" to about 6 secs even without this
patch. Now it turns out that there was a special case of glocks being
used for prefetching the metadata, but because of the timeouts for these
locks (set to 10 secs) the metadata was being timed out before it was
being used and this the prefetch code was constantly trying to prefetch
the same data over and over.
Calling "ls -l" meant that the inodes were brought into memory and once
the inodes are cached, the glocks are not disposed of until the inodes
are pushed out of the cache, thus extending the lifetime of the glocks,
and thus bringing down the time for subsequent runs of "ls"
considerably.

As per Jan Engelhardt's comments, this should make all the headers
compile on their own by including and/or declaring structures

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.

This reduces the size of the directory code by about 3k and gets
readdir() to use the functions which were introduced in the previous
directory code update.
Two memory allocations are merged into one. Eliminates zeroing of some
buffers which were never used before they were initialised by
other data.
There is still scope for further improvement in the directory code.
On the logging side, a hand created mutex has been replaced by a
standard Linux mutex in the log allocation code.

Due to a typo, the dir leaf split operation was (for the first
split in a directory) writing the new hash vaules at the
wrong offset. This is now fixed.
Also some other tidy ups are included:
- We use GFS2's hash function for dentries (see ops_dentry.c) so that
we don't have to keep recalculating the hash values.
- A lot of common code is eliminated between the various directory
lookup routines.
- Better error checking on directory lookup (previously different
routines checked for different errors)
- The leaf split operation has a couple of redundant operations
removed from it, so it should be faster.
There is still further scope for further clean ups in the directory
code, and readdir in particular could do with slimming down a bit.

This is a very large patch, with a few still to be resolved issues
so you might want to check out the previous head of the tree since
this is known to be unstable. Fixes for the various bugs will be
forthcoming shortly.
This patch removes the special data format which has been used
up till now for journaled data files. Directories still retain the
old format so that they will remain on disk compatible with earlier
releases. As a result you can now do the following with journaled
data files:
1) mmap them
2) export them over NFS
3) convert to/from normal files whenever you want to (the zero length
restriction is gone)
In addition the level at which GFS' locking is done has changed for all
files (since they all now use the page cache) such that the locking is
done at the page cache level rather than the level of the fs operations.
This should mean that things like loopback mounts and other things which
touch the page cache directly should now work.
Current known issues:
1. There is a lock mode inversion problem related to the resource
group hold function which needs to be resolved.
2. Any significant amount of I/O causes an oops with an offset of hex 320
(NULL pointer dereference) which appears to be related to a journaled data
buffer appearing on a list where it shouldn't be.
3. Direct I/O writes are disabled for the time being (will reappear later)
4. There is probably a deadlock between the page lock and GFS' locks under
certain combinations of mmap and fs operation I/O.
5. Issue relating to ref counting on internally used inodes causes a hang
on umount (discovered before this patch, and not fixed by it)
6. One part of the directory metadata is different from GFS1 and will need
to be resolved before next release.
