Now that the VFS actually waits for the data I/O to complete before
calling into ->fsync we can stop doing it ourselves.

This is for bug #850,
http://oss.sgi.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=850
XFS file system segfaults , repeatedly and 100% reproducable in 2.6.30 , 2.6.31
The above only showed up on a CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=y kernel, because
xfs_bmapi() ASSERTs that it has been asked for at least one map,
and it was getting 0.
The root cause is that our guesstimated "bufsize" from xfs_file_readdir
was fairly small, and the
bufsize -= length;
in the loop was going negative - except bufsize is a size_t, so it
was wrapping to a very large number.
Then when we did
ra_want = howmany(bufsize + mp->m_dirblksize,
mp->m_sb.sb_blocksize) - 1;
with that very large number, the (int) ra_want was coming out
negative, and a subsequent compare:
if (1 + ra_want > map_blocks ...
was coming out -true- (negative int compare w/ uint) and we went
back to xfs_bmapi() for more, even though we did not need more,
and asked for 0 maps, and hit the ASSERT.
We have kind of a type mess here, but just keeping bufsize from
going negative is probably sufficient to avoid the problem.

We want to always cover the log after writing out the superblock, and
in case of a synchronous writeout make sure we actually wait for the
log to be covered. That way a filesystem that has been sync()ed can
be considered clean by log recovery.

Sort out ->sync_fs to not perform a superblock writeback for the wait = 0 case
as that is just an optional first pass and the superblock will be written back
properly in the next call with wait = 1. Instead perform an opportunistic
quota writeback to have less work later. Also remove the freeze special case
as we do a proper wait = 1 call in the freeze code anyway.
Also rename the function to xfs_fs_sync_fs to match the normal naming
convention, update comments and avoid calling into the laptop_mode logic on
an error.

This is picking up on Felix's repost of Dave's patch to implement a
.dirty_inode method. We really need this notification because
the VFS keeps writing directly into the inode structure instead
of going through methods to update this state. In addition to
the long-known atime issue we now also have a caller in VM code
that updates c/mtime that way for shared writeable mmaps. And
I found another one that no one has noticed in practice in the FIFO
code.
So implement ->dirty_inode to set i_update_core whenever the
inode gets externally dirtied, and switch the c/mtime handling to
the same scheme we already use for atime (always picking up
the value from the Linux inode).
Note that this patch also removes the xfs_synchronize_atime call
in xfs_reclaim it was superflous as we already synchronize the time
when writing the inode via the log (xfs_inode_item_format) or the
normal buffers (xfs_iflush_int).
In addition also remove the I_CLEAR check before copying the Linux
timestamps - now that we always have the Linux inode available
we can always use the timestamps in it.
Also switch to just using file_update_time for regular reads/writes -
that will get us all optimization done to it for free and make
sure we notice early when it breaks.

Fix a number of problems with the new key garbage collector:
(1) A rogue semicolon in keyring_gc() was causing the initial count of dead
keys to be miscalculated.
(2) A missing return in keyring_gc() meant that under certain circumstances,
the keyring semaphore would be unlocked twice.
(3) The key serial tree iterator (key_garbage_collector()) part of the garbage
collector has been modified to:
(a) Complete each scan of the keyrings before setting the new timer.
(b) Only set the new timer for keys that have yet to expire. This means
that the new timer is now calculated correctly, and the gc doesn't
get into a loop continually scanning for keys that have expired, and
preventing other things from happening, like RCU cleaning up the old
keyring contents.
(c) Perform an extra scan if any keys were garbage collected in this one
as a key might become garbage during a scan, and (b) could mean we
don't set the timer again.
(4) Made key_schedule_gc() take the time at which to do a collection run,
rather than the time at which the key expires. This means the collection
of dead keys (key type unregistered) can happen immediately.

put_cred() will oops if given a NULL groups list, but that is now possible with
the existence of cred_alloc_blank(), as used in keyctl_session_to_parent().

This patch reworks platform driver power management code
for at_hdmac from legacy late/early callbacks to dev_pm_ops.
The callbacks are converted for CONFIG_SUSPEND like this:
suspend_late() -> suspend_noirq()
resume_early() -> resume_noirq()

transition_started should be set once the preparation of devices for
a PM has started, reset before starting to resume devices. When
resuming devices, kernel calls dpm_resume_noirq then
dpm_resume_end(dpm_resume). Thus we should reset transition_started
at dpm_resume_noirq.
This patch fixes ACPI warning when resuming from suspend/hibernate:
ACPI: \_SB_.PCI0.IDE1.PRI1.MAS1 - docking
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: at drivers/base/power/main.c:87 device_pm_add+0x8b/0xcc()
Hardware name: OptiPlex 760

The kerneldoc comments in drivers/base/power/main.c are generally
outdated and some of them don't describe the functions very
accurately. Update them and standardize the format to use spaces
instead of tabs.
