To avoid clearing of capabilities or security related extended
attributes too early, inode_change_ok() will need to take dentry instead
of inode. Propagate dentry down to functions calling inode_change_ok().
This is rather straightforward except for xfs_set_mode() function which
does not have dentry easily available. Luckily that function does not
call inode_change_ok() anyway so we just have to do a little dance with
function prototypes.

Al Viro noticed a generic set of issues to do with filehandle lookup
racing with dentry cache setup. They involve a filehandle lookup
occurring while an inode is being created and the filehandle lookup
racing with the dentry creation for the real file. This can lead to
multiple dentries for the one path being instantiated. There are a
host of other issues around this same set of paths.
The underlying cause is that file handle lookup only waits on inode
cache instantiation rather than full dentry cache instantiation. XFS
is mostly immune to the problems discovered due to it's own internal
inode cache, but there are a couple of corner cases where races can
happen.
We currently clear the XFS_INEW flag when the inode is fully set up
after insertion into the cache. Newly allocated inodes are inserted
locked and so aren't usable until the allocation transaction
commits. This, however, occurs before the dentry and security
information is fully initialised and hence the inode is unlocked and
available for lookups to find too early.
To solve the problem, only clear the XFS_INEW flag for newly created
inodes once the dentry is fully instantiated. This means lookups
will retry until the XFS_INEW flag is removed from the inode and
hence avoids the race conditions in questions.
THis also means that xfs_create(), xfs_create_tmpfile() and
xfs_symlink() need to finish the setup of the inode in their error
paths if we had allocated the inode but failed later in the creation
process. xfs_symlink(), in particular, needed a lot of help to make
it's error handling match that of xfs_create().

Add operations to export pNFS block layouts from an XFS filesystem. See
the previous commit adding the operations for an explanation of them.

Also don't bother to set up a .get_acl method for symlinks as we do not
support access control (ACLs or even mode bits) for symlinks in Linux,
and create inodes with the proper mode instead of fixing it up later.

Now that only one caller of xfs_change_file_space is left it can be merged
into said caller.

Currently fallocate always holds the iolock when calling into
xfs_change_file_space, while the ioctl path lets some of the lower level
functions take it, but leave it out in others.
This patch makes sure the ioctl path also always holds the iolock and
thus introduces consistent locking for the preallocation operations while
simplifying the code and allowing to kill the now unused XFS_ATTR_NOLOCK
flag.

There is no reason to conditionally take the iolock inside xfs_setattr_size
when we can let the caller handle it unconditionally, which just incrases
the lock hold time for the case where it was previously taken internally
by a few instructions.

Now we have xfs_inode.c for holding kernel-only XFS inode
operations, move all the inode operations from xfs_vnodeops.c to
this new file as it holds another set of kernel-only inode
operations. The name of this file traces back to the days of Irix
and it's vnodes which we don't have anymore.
Essentially this move consolidates the inode locking functions
and a bunch of XFS inode operations into the one file. Eventually
the high level functions will be merged into the VFS interface
functions in xfs_iops.c.
This leaves only internal preallocation, EOF block manipulation and
hole punching functions in vnodeops.c. Move these to xfs_bmap_util.c
where we are already consolidating various in-kernel physical extent
manipulation and querying functions.

Use the move from Linux 2.6 to Linux 3.x as an excuse to kill the
annoying subdirectories in the XFS source code. Besides the large
amount of file rename the only changes are to the Makefile, a few
files including headers with the subdirectory prefix, and the binary
sysctl compat code that includes a header under fs/xfs/ from
kernel/.
