Revert "NFS: readdirplus optimization by cache mechanism" (memleak) 

This reverts commit be4c2d4723.

That commit caused a severe memory leak in nfs_readdir_make_qstr().

When listing a directory with more than 100 files (this is how many
struct nfs_cache_array_entry elements fit in one 4kB page), all
allocated file name strings past those 100 leak.

The root of the leakage is that those string pointers are managed in
pages which are never linked into the page cache.

fs/nfs/dir.c puts pages into the page cache by calling
read_cache_page(); the callback function nfs_readdir_filler() will
then fill the given page struct which was passed to it, which is
already linked in the page cache (by do_read_cache_page() calling
add_to_page_cache_lru()).

Commit be4c2d4723 added another (local) array of allocated pages, to
be filled with more data, instead of discarding excess items received
from the NFS server.  Those additional pages can be used by the next
nfs_readdir_filler() call (from within the same nfs_readdir() call).

The leak happens when some of those additional pages are never used
(copied to the page cache using copy_highpage()).  The pages will be
freed by nfs_readdir_free_pages(), but their contents will not.  The
commit did not invoke nfs_readdir_clear_array() (and doing so would
have been dangerous, because it did not track which of those pages
were already copied to the page cache, risking double free bugs).

How to reproduce the leak:

- Use a kernel with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON.

- Create a directory on a NFS mount with more than 100 files with
  names long enough to use the "kmalloc-32" slab (so we can easily
  look up the allocation counts):

  for i in `seq 110`; do touch ${i}_0123456789abcdef; done

- Drop all caches:

  echo 3 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

- Check the allocation counter:

  grep nfs_readdir /sys/kernel/slab/kmalloc-32/alloc_calls
  30564391 nfs_readdir_add_to_array+0x73/0xd0 age=534558/4791307/6540952 pid=370-1048386 cpus=0-47 nodes=0-1

- Request a directory listing and check the allocation counters again:

  ls
  [...]
  grep nfs_readdir /sys/kernel/slab/kmalloc-32/alloc_calls
  30564511 nfs_readdir_add_to_array+0x73/0xd0 age=207/4792999/6542663 pid=370-1048386 cpus=0-47 nodes=0-1

There are now 120 new allocations.

- Drop all caches and check the counters again:

  echo 3 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
  grep nfs_readdir /sys/kernel/slab/kmalloc-32/alloc_calls
  30564401 nfs_readdir_add_to_array+0x73/0xd0 age=735/4793524/6543176 pid=370-1048386 cpus=0-47 nodes=0-1

110 allocations are gone, but 10 have leaked and will never be freed.

Unhelpfully, those allocations are explicitly excluded from KMEMLEAK,
that's why my initial attempts with KMEMLEAK were not successful:

	/*
	 * Avoid a kmemleak false positive. The pointer to the name is stored
	 * in a page cache page which kmemleak does not scan.
	 */
	kmemleak_not_leak(string->name);

It would be possible to solve this bug without reverting the whole
commit:

- keep track of which pages were not used, and call
  nfs_readdir_clear_array() on them, or
- manually link those pages into the page cache

But for now I have decided to just revert the commit, because the real
fix would require complex considerations, risking more dangerous
(crash) bugs, which may seem unsuitable for the stable branches.
