File open and close operations, and read and write methods that ensure
we have obtained the proper capabilities from the MDS cluster before
performing IO on a file. We take references on held capabilities for
the duration of the read/write to avoid prematurely releasing them
back to the MDS.
We implement two main paths for read and write: one that is buffered
(and uses generic_aio_{read,write}), and one that is fully synchronous
and blocking (operating either on a __user pointer or, if O_DIRECT,
directly on user pages).

Directory operations, including lookup, are defined here. We take
advantage of lookup intents when possible. For the most part, we just
need to build the proper requests for the metadata server(s) and
pass things off to the mds_client.
The results of most operations are normally incorporated into the
client's cache when the reply is parsed by ceph_fill_trace().
However, if the MDS replies without a trace (e.g., when retrying an
update after an MDS failure recovery), some operation-specific cleanup
may be needed.
We can validate cached dentries in two ways. A per-dentry lease may
be issued by the MDS, or a per-directory cap may be issued that acts
as a lease on the entire directory. In the latter case, a 'gen' value
is used to determine which dentries belong to the currently leased
directory contents.
We normally prepopulate the dcache and icache with readdir results.
This makes subsequent lookups and getattrs avoid any server
interaction. It also lets us satisfy readdir operation by peeking at
the dcache IFF we hold the per-directory cap/lease, previously
performed a readdir, and haven't dropped any of the resulting
dentries.

Inode cache and inode operations. We also include routines to
incorporate metadata structures returned by the MDS into the client
cache, and some helpers to deal with file capabilities and metadata
leases. The bulk of that work is done by fill_inode() and
fill_trace().

struct ceph_buffer is a simple ref-counted buffer. We transparently
choose between kmalloc for small buffers and vmalloc for large ones.
This is currently used only for allocating memory for xattr data.

We first define constants, types, and prototypes for the kernel client
proper.
A few subsystems are defined separately later: the MDS, OSD, and
monitor clients, and the messaging layer.

These headers describe the types used to exchange messages between the
Ceph client and various servers. All types are little-endian and
packed. These headers are shared between the kernel and userspace, so
all types are in terms of e.g. __u32.
Additionally, we define a few magic values to identify the current
version of the protocol(s) in use, so that discrepancies to be
detected on mount.
