For nfs exporting, ocfs2_get_dentry() returns the dentry for fh.
ocfs2_get_dentry() may read from disk when the inode is not in memory,
without any cross cluster lock. this leads to the file system loading a
stale inode.
This patch fixes above problem.
Solution is that in case of inode is not in memory, we get the cluster
lock(PR) of alloc inode where the inode in question is allocated from (this
causes node on which deletion is done sync the alloc inode) before reading
out the inode itsself. then we check the bitmap in the group (the inode in
question allcated from) to see if the bit is clear. if it's clear then it's
stale. if the bit is set, we then check generation as the existing code
does.
We have to read out the inode in question from disk first to know its alloc
slot and allot bit. And if its not stale we read it out using ocfs2_iget().
The second read should then be from cache.
And also we have to add a per superblock nfs_sync_lock to cover the lock for
alloc inode and that for inode in question. this is because ocfs2_get_dentry()
and ocfs2_delete_inode() lock on them in reverse order. nfs_sync_lock is locked
in EX mode in ocfs2_get_dentry() and in PR mode in ocfs2_delete_inode(). so
that mutliple ocfs2_delete_inode() can run concurrently in normal case.

Create separate lockdep lock classes for system file's i_mutexes. They are
used to guard allocations and similar things and thus rank differently
than i_mutex of a regular file or directory.

Call this the "inode_lock" now, since it covers both data and meta data.

OCFS2 has it's own 64bit-firendly filehandle format so we can't use the
generic helpers here. I'll add a struct for the types later.

A couple paths which needed to just match a parent dir + name pair to an
inode number were a bit messy because they had to deal with
ocfs2_find_files_on_disk() which returns a larger number of values. Provide
a convenience function, ocfs2_lookup_ino_from_name() which internalizes all
the extra accounting.

Get rid of some error prints in the ocfs2_iget() path from

OCFS2 puts inode meta data in the "lock value block" provided by the DLM.
Typically, i_generation is encoded in the lock name so that a deleted inode
on and a new one in the same block don't share the same lvb.
Unfortunately, that scheme means that the read in ocfs2_read_locked_inode()
is potentially thrown away as soon as the meta data lock is taken - we
cannot encode the lock name without first knowing i_generation, which
requires a disk read.
This patch encodes i_generation in the inode meta data lvb, and removes the
value from the inode meta data lock name. This way, the read can be covered
by a lock, and at the same time we can distinguish between an up to date and
a stale LVB.
This will help cold-cache stat(2) performance in particular.
Since this patch changes the protocol version, we take the opportunity to do
a minor re-organization of two of the LVB fields.
