Some IBM POWER-based platforms have the ability to run in a
mode which mostly appears to the OS as a different processor from the
actual hardware. For example, a Power6 system may appear to be a
Power5+, which makes the AT_PLATFORM value "power5+". This means that
programs are restricted to the ISA supported by Power5+;
Power6-specific instructions are treated as illegal.
However, some applications (virtual machines, optimized libraries) can
benefit from knowledge of the underlying CPU model. A new aux vector
entry, AT_BASE_PLATFORM, will denote the actual hardware. For
example, on a Power6 system in Power5+ compatibility mode, AT_PLATFORM
will be "power5+" and AT_BASE_PLATFORM will be "power6". The idea is
that AT_PLATFORM indicates the instruction set supported, while
AT_BASE_PLATFORM indicates the underlying microarchitecture.
If the architecture has defined ELF_BASE_PLATFORM, copy that value to
the user stack in the same manner as ELF_PLATFORM.

For direct and offset type mounts that are covered by another mount we
cannot check the AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING flag during a path walk which leads
to lookups walking into an expiring mount while it is being expired.
For example, for the direct multi-mount map entry with a couple of
offsets:
/race/mm1 / <server1>:/<path1>
/om1 <server2>:/<path2>
/om2 <server1>:/<path3>
an autofs trigger mount is mounted on /race/mm1 and when accessed it is
over mounted and trigger mounts made for /race/mm1/om1 and /race/mm1/om2.
So it isn't possible for path walks to see the expiring flag at all and
they happily walk into the file system while it is expiring.
When expiring these mounts follow_down() must stop at the autofs mount and
all processes must block in the ->follow_link() method (except the daemon)
until the expire is complete. This is done by decrementing the d_mounted
field of the autofs trigger mount root dentry until the expire is
completed. In ->follow_link() all processes wait on the expire and the
mount following is completed for the daemon until the expire is complete.

The selection of a dentry for expiration and the setting of the

walking into an expiring mount.
What happens is that an expire is initiated by the daemon and a dentry is
selected for expire but, since there is no lock held between the selection
and setting of the expiring flag, a process may find the flag clear and
continue walking into the mount tree at the same time the daemon attempts

There are two cases for which a dentry that has a pending mount request
does not wait for completion. One is via autofs4_revalidate() and the
other via autofs4_follow_link().
In revalidate, after the mount point directory is created, but before the
mount is done, the check in try_to_fill_dentry() can can fail to send the
dentry to the wait queue since the dentry is positive and the lookup flags
may contain only LOOKUP_FOLLOW. Although we don't trigger a mount for the
LOOKUP_FOLLOW flag, if ther's one pending we might as well wait and use
the mounted dentry for the lookup.
In autofs4_follow_link() the dentry is not checked to see if it is pending
so it may fail to call try_to_fill_dentry() and not wait for mount
completion.
A dentry that is pending must always be sent to the wait queue.

We have been seeing mount requests comming to the automount daemon for
keys of the form "<map key>/<non key directory>" which are lookups for
invalid map keys. But we can check for this in the kernel module and
return a fail immediately, without having to send a request to the daemon.
It is possible to recognise these requests are invalid based on whether
the request dentry is negative and its relation to the autofs file system
root.
For example, given the indirect multi-mount map entry:
idm1 \
/mm1 <server>:/<path1>
/mm2 <server>:/<path2>
For a request to mount idm1, IS_ROOT((idm1)->d_parent) will be always be
true and the dentry may be negative. But directories idm1/mm1 and
idm1/mm2 will always be created as part of the mount request for idm1. So
any mount request within idm1 itself must have a positive dentry otherwise
the map key is invalid.
In version 4 these multi-mount entries are all mounted and umounted as a
single request and in version 5 the directories idm1/mm1 and idm1/mm2 are
created and an autofs fs mounted on them to act as a mount trigger so the
above is also true.
This also holds true for the autofs version 4 pseudo direct mount feature.
When this feature is used without the "--ghost" option automount(8) will
create internal submounts as we go down the map key paths which are
essentially normal indirect mounts for which the above holds. If the
"--ghost" option is given the directories for map keys are created at
daemon startup so valid map entries correspond to postive dentries in the
autofs fs.
autofs version 5 direct mount maps are similar except that the IS_ROOT
check is not needed. This has been addressed in a previous patch tittled
"autofs4 - detect invalid direct mount requests".
For example, given the direct multi-mount map entry:
/test/dm1 \
/mm1 <server>:/<path1>
/mm2 <server>:/<path2>
An autofs fs is mounted on /test/dm1 as a trigger mount and when a mount
is triggered for /test/dm1, the multi-mount offset directories
/test/dm1/mm1 and /test/dm1/mm2 are created and an autofs fs is mounted on
them to act as mount triggers. So valid direct mount requests must always
have a positive dentry if they correspond to a valid map entry.

Close a race between a pending mount that is about to finish and a new
lookup for the same directory.
Process P1 triggers a mount of directory foo. It sets
DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING in the ->lookup routine, creates a waitq entry for
'foo', and calls out to the daemon to perform the mount. The autofs
daemon will then create the directory 'foo', using a new dentry that will
be hashed in the dcache.
Before the mount completes, another process, P2, tries to walk into the
'foo' directory. The vfs path walking code finds an entry for 'foo' and
calls the revalidate method. Revalidate finds that the entry is not
PENDING (because PENDING was never set on the dentry created by the
mkdir), but it does find the directory is empty. Revalidate calls
try_to_fill_dentry, which sets the PENDING flag and then calls into the
autofs4 wait code to trigger or wait for a mount of 'foo'. The wait code
finds the entry for 'foo' and goes to sleep waiting for the completion of
the mount.
Yet another process, P3, tries to walk into the 'foo' directory. This
process again finds a dentry in the dcache for 'foo', and calls into the
autofs revalidate code.
The revalidate code finds that the PENDING flag is set, and so calls
try_to_fill_dentry.
a) try_to_fill_dentry sets the PENDING flag redundantly for this
dentry, then calls into the autofs4 wait code.
b) the autofs4 wait code takes the waitq mutex and searches for an
entry for 'foo'
Between a and b, P1 is woken up because the mount completed. P1 takes the
wait queue mutex, clears the PENDING flag from the dentry, and removes the
waitqueue entry for 'foo' from the list.
When it releases the waitq mutex, P3 (eventually) acquires it. At this
time, it looks for an existing waitq for 'foo', finds none, and so creates
a new one and calls out to the daemon to mount the 'foo' directory.
Now, the reason that three processes are required to trigger this race is
that, because the PENDING flag is not set on the dentry created by mkdir,
the window for the race would be way to slim for it to ever occur.
Basically, between the testing of d_mountpoint(dentry) and the taking of
the waitq mutex, the mount would have to complete and the daemon would
have to be woken up, and that in turn would have to wake up P1. This is
simply impossible. Add the third process, though, and it becomes slightly
more likely.

When an open(2) call is made on an autofs mount point directory that
already exists and the O_DIRECTORY flag is not used the needed mount
callback to the daemon is not done. This leads to the path walk
continuing resulting in a callback to the daemon with an incorrect
key. open(2) is called without O_DIRECTORY by the "find" utility but
this should be handled properly anyway.
This happens because autofs needs to use the lookup flags to decide
when to callback to the daemon to perform a mount to prevent mount
storms. For example, an autofs indirect mount map that has the "browse"
option will have the mount point directories are pre-created and the
stat(2) call made by a color ls against each directory will cause all
these directories to be mounted. It is unfortunate we need to resort
to this but mount maps can be quite large. Additionally, if a user
manually umounts an autofs indirect mount the directory isn't removed
which also leads to this situation.
To resolve this autofs needs to use the lookup intent flags to enable
it to make this decision. This patch adds this check and triggers a
call back if any of the lookup intent flags are set as all these calls
warrant a mount attempt be requested.
I know that external VFS code which uses the lookup flags is something
that the VFS would like to eliminate but I have no choice as I can't
see any other way to do this. A VFS dentry or inode operation callback
which returns the lookup "type" (requires a definition) would be
sufficient. But this change is needed now and I'm not aware of the form
that coming VFS changes will take so I'm not willing to propose anything
along these lines.
If anyone can provide an alternate method I would be happy to use it.

Since we now delay hashing of dentrys until the ->mkdir() call, droping
and re-taking the directory mutex within the ->lookup() function when we
are being called by user space is not needed. This can lead to a race
when other processes are attempting to access the same directory during
mount point directory creation.
In this case we need to hang onto the mutex to ensure we don't get user
processes trying to create a mount request for a newly created dentry
after the mount point entry has already been created. This ensures that
when we need to check a dentry passed to autofs4_wait(), if it is hashed,
it is always the mount point dentry and not a new dentry created by
another lookup during directory creation.

A while ago a patch to resolve a deadlock during directory creation was
merged. This delayed the hashing of lookup dentrys until the ->mkdir()
(or ->symlink()) operation completed to ensure we always went through
->lookup() instead of also having processes go through ->revalidate() so
our VFS locking remained consistent.
Now we are seeing a couple of side affects of that change in situations
with heavy mount activity.
Two cases have been identified:
1) When a mount request is triggered, due to the delayed hashing, the
directory created by user space for the mount point doesn't have the
DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING flag set. In the case of an autofs multi-mount
where a tree of mount point directories are created this can lead to
the path walk continuing rather than the dentry being sent to the wait
queue to wait for request completion. This is because, if the pending
flag isn't set, the criteria for deciding this is a mount in progress
fails to hold, namely that the dentry is not a mount point and has no
subdirectories.
2) A mount request dentry is initially created negative and unhashed.
It remains this way until the ->mkdir() callback completes. Since it
is unhashed a fresh dentry is used when the user space mount request
creates the mount point directory. This leaves the original dentry
negative and unhashed. But revalidate has no way to tell the VFS that
the dentry has changed, other than to force another ->lookup() by
returning false, which is at best wastefull and at worst not possible.
This results in an -ENOENT return from the original path walk when in
fact the mount succeeded.
To resolve this we need to ensure that the same dentry is used in all
calls to ->lookup() during the course of a mount request. This patch
achieves that by adding the initial dentry to a look aside list and
removes it at ->mkdir() or ->symlink() completion (or when the dentry is
released), since these are the only create operations autofs4 supports.

Correct the error of making a positive dentry negative after it has been
instantiated.
The code that makes this error attempts to re-use the dentry from a
concurrent expire and mount to resolve a race and the dentry used for the
lookup must be negative for mounts to trigger in the required cases. The
fact is that the dentry doesn't need to be re-used because all that is
needed is to preserve the flag that indicates an expire is still
incomplete at the time of the mount request.
This change uses the the dentry to check the flag and wait for the expire
to complete then discards it instead of attempting to re-use it.

eCryptfs would really like to have read-write access to all files in the
lower filesystem. Right now, the persistent lower file may be opened
read-only if the attempt to open it read-write fails. One way to keep
from having to do that is to have a privileged kthread that can open the
lower persistent file on behalf of the user opening the eCryptfs file;
this patch implements this functionality.
This patch will properly allow a less-privileged user to open the eCryptfs
file, followed by a more-privileged user opening the eCryptfs file, with
the first user only being able to read and the second user being able to
both read and write. eCryptfs currently does this wrong; it will wind up
calling vfs_write() on a file that was opened read-only. This is fixed in

This patch adds O_NONBLOCK support to pipe2. It is minimally more involved
than the patches for eventfd et.al but still trivial. The interfaces of the
create_write_pipe and create_read_pipe helper functions were changed and the
one other caller as well.
The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

Building on the previous change to anon_inode_getfd, this patch introduces
support for handling of O_NONBLOCK in addition to the already supported
O_CLOEXEC. Following patches will take advantage of this support. As can be
seen, the additional support for supporting this functionality is minimal.

This patch introduces the new syscall inotify_init1 (note: the 1 stands for
the one parameter the syscall takes, as opposed to no parameter before). The
values accepted for this parameter are function-specific and defined in the

This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also
takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value. This patch implements
the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag. I did not add support for the new
syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation. I
think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified
implementation but that's up to them.
The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags. I did that instead of changing
all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler.
I would probably screw up changing the assembly code. To avoid breaking code
do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags. Once all callers are
changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed.
The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

Add the ability to configure the hugetlb hstate used on a per mount basis.
- Add a new pagesize= option to the hugetlbfs mount that allows setting
the page size
- This option causes the mount code to find the hstate corresponding to the
specified size, and sets up a pointer to the hstate in the mount's
superblock.
- Change the hstate accessors to use this information rather than the
global_hstate they were using (requires a slight change in mm/memory.c
so we don't NULL deref in the error-unmap path -- see comments).

The goal of this patchset is to support multiple hugetlb page sizes. This
is achieved by introducing a new struct hstate structure, which
encapsulates the important hugetlb state and constants (eg. huge page
size, number of huge pages currently allocated, etc).
The hstate structure is then passed around the code which requires these
fields, they will do the right thing regardless of the exact hstate they
are operating on.
This patch adds the hstate structure, with a single global instance of it
(default_hstate), and does the basic work of converting hugetlb to use the
hstate.
Future patches will add more hstate structures to allow for different
hugetlbfs mounts to have different page sizes.

After patch 2 in this series, a process that successfully calls mmap() for
a MAP_PRIVATE mapping will be guaranteed to successfully fault until a
process calls fork(). At that point, the next write fault from the parent
could fail due to COW if the child still has a reference.
We only reserve pages for the parent but a copy must be made to avoid
leaking data from the parent to the child after fork(). Reserves could be
taken for both parent and child at fork time to guarantee faults but if
the mapping is large it is highly likely we will not have sufficient pages
for the reservation, and it is common to fork only to exec() immediatly
after. A failure here would be very undesirable.
Note that the current behaviour of mainline with MAP_PRIVATE pages is
pretty bad. The following situation is allowed to occur today.
1. Process calls mmap(MAP_PRIVATE)
2. Process calls mlock() to fault all pages and makes sure it succeeds
3. Process forks()
4. Process writes to MAP_PRIVATE mapping while child still exists
5. If the COW fails at this point, the process gets SIGKILLed even though it
had taken care to ensure the pages existed
This patch improves the situation by guaranteeing the reliability of the
process that successfully calls mmap(). When the parent performs COW, it
will try to satisfy the allocation without using reserves. If that fails
the parent will steal the page leaving any children without a page.
Faults from the child after that point will result in failure. If the
child COW happens first, an attempt will be made to allocate the page
without reserves and the child will get SIGKILLed on failure.
To summarise the new behaviour:
1. If the original mapper performs COW on a private mapping with multiple
references, it will attempt to allocate a hugepage from the pool or
the buddy allocator without using the existing reserves. On fail, VMAs
mapping the same area are traversed and the page being COW'd is unmapped
where found. It will then steal the original page as the last mapper in
the normal way.
2. The VMAs the pages were unmapped from are flagged to note that pages
with data no longer exist. Future no-page faults on those VMAs will
terminate the process as otherwise it would appear that data was corrupted.
A warning is printed to the console that this situation occured.
2. If the child performs COW first, it will attempt to satisfy the COW
from the pool if there are enough pages or via the buddy allocator if
overcommit is allowed and the buddy allocator can satisfy the request. If
it fails, the child will be killed.
If the pool is large enough, existing applications will not notice that
the reserves were a factor. Existing applications depending on the
no-reserves been set are unlikely to exist as for much of the history of
hugetlbfs, pages were prefaulted at mmap(), allocating the pages at that
point or failing the mmap().

This patch reserves huge pages at mmap() time for MAP_PRIVATE mappings in
a similar manner to the reservations taken for MAP_SHARED mappings. The
reserve count is accounted both globally and on a per-VMA basis for
private mappings. This guarantees that a process that successfully calls
mmap() will successfully fault all pages in the future unless fork() is
called.
The characteristics of private mappings of hugetlbfs files behaviour after
this patch are;
1. The process calling mmap() is guaranteed to succeed all future faults until
it forks().
2. On fork(), the parent may die due to SIGKILL on writes to the private
mapping if enough pages are not available for the COW. For reasonably
reliable behaviour in the face of a small huge page pool, children of
hugepage-aware processes should not reference the mappings; such as
might occur when fork()ing to exec().
3. On fork(), the child VMAs inherit no reserves. Reads on pages already
faulted by the parent will succeed. Successful writes will depend on enough
huge pages being free in the pool.
4. Quotas of the hugetlbfs mount are checked at reserve time for the mapper
and at fault time otherwise.
Before this patch, all reads or writes in the child potentially needs page
allocations that can later lead to the death of the parent. This applies
to reads and writes of uninstantiated pages as well as COW. After the
patch it is only a write to an instantiated page that causes problems.

[Summary]
Split LRU-list of unused dentries to one per superblock to avoid soft
lock up during NFS mounts and remounting of any filesystem.
Previously I posted here:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/5/590
[Descriptions]
- background
dentry_unused is a list of dentries which are not referenced.
dentry_unused grows up when references on directories or files are
released. This list can be very long if there is huge free memory.
- the problem
When shrink_dcache_sb() is called, it scans all dentry_unused linearly
under spin_lock(), and if dentry->d_sb is differnt from given
superblock, scan next dentry. This scan costs very much if there are
many entries, and very ineffective if there are many superblocks.
IOW, When we need to shrink unused dentries on one dentry, but scans
unused dentries on all superblocks in the system. For example, we scan
500 dentries to unmount a filesystem, but scans 1,000,000 or more unused
dentries on other superblocks.
In our case , At mounting NFS*, shrink_dcache_sb() is called to shrink
unused dentries on NFS, but scans 100,000,000 unused dentries on
superblocks in the system such as local ext3 filesystems. I hear NFS
mounting took 1 min on some system in use.
* : NFS uses virtual filesystem in rpc layer, so NFS is affected by
this problem.
100,000,000 is possible number on large systems.
Per-superblock LRU of unused dentried can reduce the cost in
reasonable manner.
- How to fix
I found this problem is solved by David Chinner's "Per-superblock
unused dentry LRU lists V3"(1), so I rebase it and add some fix to
reclaim with fairness, which is in Andrew Morton's comments(2).
1) http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/5/25/318
2) http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/5/25/320
Split LRU-list of unused dentries to each superblocks. Then, NFS
mounting will check dentries under a superblock instead of all. But
this spliting will break LRU of dentry-unused. So, I've attempted to
make reclaim unused dentrins with fairness by calculate number of
dentries to scan on this sb based on following way
number of dentries to scan on this sb =
count * (number of dentries on this sb / number of dentries in the machine)
- ToDo
- I have to measuring performance number and do stress tests.
- When unmount occurs during prune_dcache(), scanning on same
superblock, It is unable to reach next superblock because it is gone
away. We restart scannig superblock from first one, it causes
unfairness of reclaim unused dentries on first superblock. But I think
this happens very rarely.
- Test Results
Result on 6GB boxes with excessive unused dentries.

The Linux kernel puts the filename argument of execve() into the new
address space. Many developers are surprised to learn this. Those who
know and could use it, object "But it's not documented."
Those who want to use it dislike the expression
(char *)(1+ strlen(env[-1+ n_env]) + env[-1+ n_env])
because it requires locating the last original environment variable,
and assumes that the filename follows the characters.
This patch documents the insertion of the filename, and makes it easier
to find by adding a new tag AT_EXECFN in the ElfXX_auxv_t; see <elf.h>.
In many cases readlink("/proc/self/exe",) gives the same answer. But if
all the original pages get unmapped, then the kernel erases the symlink
for /proc/self/exe. This can happen when a program decompressor does a
good job of cleaning up after uncompressing directly to memory, so that
the address space of the target program looks the same as if compression
had never happened. One example is http://upx.sourceforge.net .
One notable use of the underlying concept (what path containED the
executable) is glibc expanding $ORIGIN in DT_RUNPATH. In practice for
the near term, it may be a good idea for user-mode code to use both
/proc/self/exe and AT_EXECFN as fall-back methods for each other.
/proc/self/exe can fail due to unmapping, AT_EXECFN can fail because it
won't be present on non-new systems. The auxvec or {AT_EXECFN}.d_val
also can get overwritten, although in nearly all cases this would be the
result of a bug.
The runtime cost is one NEW_AUX_ENT using two words of stack space. The
underlying value is maintained already as bprm->exec; setup_arg_pages()
in fs/exec.c slides it for stack_shift, etc.

The configfs operations ->make_item() and ->make_group() currently
return a new item/group. A return of NULL signifies an error. Because
of this, -ENOMEM is the only return code bubbled up the stack.
Multiple folks have requested the ability to return specific error codes
when these operations fail. This patch adds that ability by changing the
->make_item/group() ops to return ERR_PTR() values. These errors are
bubbled up appropriately. NULL returns are changed to -ENOMEM for
compatibility.
Also updated are the in-kernel users of configfs.

It may not be obvious (till you look at the definition of
nlm_alloc_call()) that a function like nlmsvc_create_block() should
consume a reference on success or failure, so I find it clearer if it
takes the reference it needs itself.
And both callers already do this immediately before the call anyway.

nlmsvc_lock calls nlmsvc_lookup_host to find a nlm_host struct. The
callers of this function, however, call nlmsvc_retrieve_args or
nlm4svc_retrieve_args, which also return a nlm_host struct.
Change nlmsvc_lock to take a host arg instead of calling
nlmsvc_lookup_host itself and change the callers to pass a pointer to
the nlm_host they've already found.
Since nlmsvc_testlock() now just uses the caller's reference, we no
longer need to get or release it.

The configfs operations ->make_item() and ->make_group() currently
return a new item/group. A return of NULL signifies an error. Because
of this, -ENOMEM is the only return code bubbled up the stack.
Multiple folks have requested the ability to return specific error codes
when these operations fail. This patch adds that ability by changing the
->make_item/group() ops to return an int.
Also updated are the in-kernel users of configfs.

When fixing the rename() vs rmdir() deadlock, we stopped locking default groups'
inodes in configfs_detach_prep(), letting racing mkdir() in default groups
proceed concurrently. This enables races like below happen, which leads to a
failing mkdir() making rmdir() fail, despite the group to remove having no
user-created directory under it in the end.
process A: process B:
/* PWD=A/B */
mkdir("C")
make_item("C")
attach_group("C")
rmdir("A")
detach_prep("A")
detach_prep("B")
error because of "C"
return -ENOTEMPTY
attach_group("C/D")
error (eg -ENOMEM)
return -ENOMEM
This patch prevents such scenarii by making rmdir() wait as long as
detach_prep() fails because a racing mkdir() is in the middle of attach_group().
To achieve this, mkdir() sets a flag CONFIGFS_USET_IN_MKDIR in parent's
configfs_dirent before calling attach_group(), and clears the flag once
attach_group() is done. detach_prep() fails with -EAGAIN whenever the flag is
hit and returns the guilty inode's mutex so that rmdir() can wait on it.

This patch fixes the deadlock between racing sys_rename() and configfs_rmdir().
The idea is to avoid locking i_mutexes of default groups in
configfs_detach_prep(), and rely instead on the new configfs_dirent_lock to
protect against configfs_dirent's linkage mutations. To ensure that an mkdir()
racing with rmdir() will not create new items in a to-be-removed default group,
we make configfs_new_dirent() check for the CONFIGFS_USET_DROPPING flag right
before linking the new dirent, and return error if the flag is set. This makes
racing mkdir()/symlink()/dir_open() fail in places where errors could already
happen, resp. in (attach_item()|attach_group())/create_link()/new_dirent().
configfs_depend() remains safe since it locks all the path from configfs root,
and is thus mutually exclusive with rmdir().
An advantage of this is that now detach_groups() unconditionnaly takes the
default groups i_mutex, which makes it more consistent with populate_groups().

Symlinks to a config_item are listed under its configfs_dirent s_links, but the
list mutations are not protected by any common lock.
This patch uses the configfs_dirent_lock spinlock to add the necessary
protection.
Note: we should also protect the list_empty() test in configfs_detach_prep() but
1/ the lock should not be released immediately because nothing would prevent the
list from being filled after a successful list_empty() test, making the problem
tricky,
2/ this will be solved by the rmdir() vs rename() deadlock bugfix.

This patch introduces configfs_dirent_lock spinlock to protect configfs_dirent
traversals against linkage mutations (add/del/move). This will allow
configfs_detach_prep() to avoid locking i_mutexes.
Locking rules for configfs_dirent linkage mutations are the same plus the
requirement of taking configfs_dirent_lock. For configfs_dirent walking, one can
either take appropriate i_mutex as before, or take configfs_dirent_lock.
The spinlock could actually be a mutex, but the critical sections are either
O(1) or should not be too long (default groups walking in last patch).
ChangeLog:
- Clarify the comment on configfs_dirent_lock usage
- Move sd->s_element init before linking the new dirent
- In lseek(), do not release configfs_dirent_lock before the dirent is
relinked.

Some system files are per-slot. Their names include the slot number.
ocfs2_sprintf_system_inode_name() uses the system inode definitions to
fill in the slot number with snprintf().
For global system files, there is no node number, and the name was
printed as a format with no arguments. -Wformat-nonliteral and
-Wformat-security don't like this. Instead, use a static "%s" format
and the name as the argument.
