When a lot of netdevices are created, one of the bottleneck is the
creation of proc entries. This serie aims to accelerate this part.
The current implementation for the directories in /proc is using a single
linked list. This is slow when handling directories with large numbers of
entries (eg netdevice-related entries when lots of tunnels are opened).
This patch replaces this linked list by a red-black tree.
Here are some numbers:
dummy30000.batch contains 30 000 times 'link add type dummy'.
Before the patch:
$ time ip -b dummy30000.batch
real 2m31.950s
user 0m0.440s
sys 2m21.440s
$ time rmmod dummy
real 1m35.764s
user 0m0.000s
sys 1m24.088s
After the patch:
$ time ip -b dummy30000.batch
real 2m0.874s
user 0m0.448s
sys 1m49.720s
$ time rmmod dummy
real 1m13.988s
user 0m0.000s
sys 1m1.008s
The idea of improving this part was suggested by Thierry Herbelot.

In the previous commit, Richard Genoud fixed proc_root_readdir(), which
had lost the check for whether all of the non-process /proc entries had
been returned or not.
But that in turn exposed _another_ bug, namely that the original readdir
conversion patch had yet another problem: it had lost the return value
of proc_readdir_de(), so now checking whether it had completed
successfully or not didn't actually work right anyway.
This reinstates the non-zero return for the "end of base entries" that
had also gotten lost in commit f0c3b5093a ("[readdir] convert
procfs"). So now you get all the base entries *and* you get all the
process entries, regardless of getdents buffer size.
(Side note: the Linux "getdents" manual page actually has a nice example
application for testing getdents, which can be easily modified to use
different buffers. Who knew? Man-pages can be useful)

Supply an accessor function for getting the private data from the parent
proc_dir_entry struct of the proc_dir_entry struct associated with an inode.
ReiserFS, for instance, stores the super_block pointer in the proc directory
it makes for that super_block, and a pointer to the respective seq_file show
function in each of the proc files in that directory.
This allows a reduction in the number of file_operations structs, open
functions and seq_operations structs required. The problem otherwise is that
each show function requires two pieces of data but only has storage for one
per PDE (and this has no release function).

Since __proc_create() appends the name it is given to the end of the PDE
structure that it allocates, there isn't a need to store a name pointer.
Instead we can just replace the name pointer with a terminal char array of
_unspecified_ length. The compiler will simply append the string to statically
defined variables of PDE type overlapping any hole at the end of the structure
and, unlike specifying an explicitly _zero_ length array, won't give a warning
if you try to statically initialise it with a string of more than zero length.
Also, whilst we're at it:
(1) Move namelen to end just prior to name and reduce it to a single byte
(name shouldn't be longer than NAME_MAX).
(2) Move pde_unload_lock two places further on so that if it's four bytes in
size on a 64-bit machine, it won't cause an unused hole in the PDE struct.

1. namelen is declared "unsigned short" which hints for "maybe space savings".
Indeed in 2.4 struct proc_dir_entry looked like:
struct proc_dir_entry {
unsigned short low_ino;
unsigned short namelen;
Now, low_ino is "unsigned int", all savings were gone for a long time.
"struct proc_dir_entry" is not that countless to worry about it's size,
anyway.
2. converting from unsigned short to int/unsigned int can only create
problems, we better play it safe.
Space is not really conserved, because of natural alignment for the next
field. sizeof(struct proc_dir_entry) remains the same.

have d_op but not the particular operation.

Replace inode_setattr with opencoded variants of it in all callers. This
moves the remaining call to vmtruncate into the filesystem methods where it
can be replaced with the proper truncate sequence.
In a few cases it was obvious that we would never end up calling vmtruncate
so it was left out in the opencoded variant:
spufs: explicitly checks for ATTR_SIZE earlier
btrfs,hugetlbfs,logfs,dlmfs: explicitly clears ATTR_SIZE earlier
ufs: contains an opencoded simple_seattr + truncate that sets the filesize just above
In addition to that ncpfs called inode_setattr with handcrafted iattrs,
which allowed to trim down the opencoded variant.
