We don't need a "default" ktype for a kset. We should set this
explicitly every time for each kset. This change is needed so that we
can make ksets dynamic, and cleans up one of the odd, undocumented
assumption that the kset/kobject/ktype model has.
This patch is based on a lot of help from Kay Sievers.
Nasty bug in the block code was found by Dave Young

The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start
using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in
the kernel.
The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce
more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

Introduce a per-lockspace rwsem that's held in read mode by dlm_recv
threads while working in the dlm. This allows dlm_recv activity to be
suspended when the lockspace transitions to, from and between recovery
cycles.
The specific bug prompting this change is one where an in-progress
recovery cycle is aborted by a new recovery cycle. While dlm_recv was
processing a recovery message, the recovery cycle was aborted and
dlm_recoverd began cleaning up. dlm_recv decremented recover_locks_count
on an rsb after dlm_recoverd had reset it to zero. This is fixed by
suspending dlm_recv (taking write lock on the rwsem) before aborting the
current recovery.
The transitions to/from normal and recovery modes are simplified by using
this new ability to block dlm_recv. The switch from normal to recovery
mode means dlm_recv goes from processing locking messages, to saving them
for later, and vice versa. Races are avoided by blocking dlm_recv when
setting the flag that switches between modes.

Fix a long standing bug where a blocking callback would be missed
when there's a granted lock in PR mode and waiting locks in both
PR and CW modes (and the PR lock was added to the waiting queue
before the CW lock). The logic simply compared the numerical values
of the modes to determine if a blocking callback was required, but in
the one case of PR and CW, the lower valued CW mode blocks the higher
valued PR mode. We just need to add a special check for this PR/CW
case in the tests that decide when a blocking callback is needed.

Configfs being based upon sysfs code, config_group_find_obj() is probably
so named because of the similar kset_find_obj() in sysfs. However,
"kobject"s in sysfs become "config_item"s in configfs, so let's call it
config_group_find_item() instead, for sake of uniformity, and make
corresponding change in the users of this function.
BTW a crucial difference between kset_find_obj and config_group_find_item
is in locking expectations. kset_find_obj does its locking by itself, but
config_group_find_item expects the *caller* to do the locking. The reason
for this: kset's have their own locks, config_group's don't but instead
rely on the subsystem mutex. And, subsystem needn't necessarily be around
when config_group_find_item() is called.
So let's state these locking semantics explicitly, and rectify the comment,
otherwise bugs could continue to occur in future, as they did in the past
(refer commit d82b8191e238 in gfs2-2.6-fixes.git).

Various fixes related to the new timeout feature:
- add_timeout() missed setting TIMEWARN flag on lkb's when the
TIMEOUT flag was already set
- clear_proc_locks should remove a dead process's locks from the
timeout list
- the end-of-life calculation for user locks needs to consider that
ETIMEDOUT is equivalent to -DLM_ECANCEL
- make initial default timewarn_cs config value visible in configfs
- change bit position of TIMEOUT_CANCEL flag so it's not copied to
a remote master node
- set timestamp on remote lkb's so a lock dump will display the time
they've been waiting

- Add ability for userspace to check the version of the interface. libdlm

- Increase the size of the flags passed in a lock request so all possible
flags can be used from userspace.
- Add an opaque "xid" value for each lock. This "transaction id" will be
used later to associate locks with each other during deadlock detection.
- Add a "timeout" value for each lock. This is used along with the
DLM_LKF_TIMEOUT flag.
Also, remove a fragment of unused code in device_read().
This patch requires updating libdlm which is backward compatible with

If the new DLM_LSFL_TIMEWARN flag is set when creating the lockspace, then
a warning message will be sent to userspace (using genetlink) after a
request/conversion has been waiting for a given number of centiseconds
(configurable per node). The time warnings will be used in the future

There are flags to enable two specialized features in the dlm:
1. CONVDEADLK causes the dlm to resolve conversion deadlocks internally by
changing the granted mode of locks to NL.
2. ALTPR/ALTCW cause the dlm to change the requested mode of locks to PR
or CW to grant them if the normal requested mode can't be granted.
GFS direct i/o exercises both of these features, especially when mixed
with buffered i/o. The dlm has problems with them.
The first problem is on the master node. If it demotes a lock as a part of
converting it, the actual step of converting the lock isn't being done
after the demotion, the lock is just left sitting on the granted queue
with a granted mode of NL. I think the mistaken assumption was that the
call to grant_pending_locks() would grant it, but that function naturally
doesn't look at locks on the granted queue.
The second problem is on the process node. If the master either demotes
or gives an altmode, the munging of the gr/rq modes is never done in the
process copy of the lock, leaving the master/process copies out of sync.
