88e9d34c72 seq_file: constify seq_operations
Make all seq_operations structs const, to help mitigate against
revectoring user-triggerable function pointers.

This is derived from the grsecurity patch, although generated from scratch
because it's simpler than extracting the changes from there.

c7be761a81 dlm: change rsbtbl rwlock to spinlock
The rwlock is almost always used in write mode, so there's no reason
to not use a spinlock instead.

892c4467e3 dlm: fix seq_file usage in debugfs lock dump
The old code would leak iterators and leave reference counts on
rsbs because it was ignoring the "stop" seq callback.  The code
followed an example that used the seq operations differently.
This new code is based on actually understanding how the seq
operations work.  It also improves things by saving the hash bucket
in the position to avoid cycling through completed buckets in start.

d022509d1c dlm: add new debugfs entry
The new debugfs entry dumps all rsb and lkb structures, and includes
a lot more information than has been available before.  This includes
the new timestamps added by a previous patch for debugging callback
issues.

eeda418d8c dlm: change lock time stamping
Use ktime instead of jiffies for timestamping lkb's.  Also stamp the
time on every lkb whenever it's added to a resource queue, instead of
just stamping locks subject to timeouts.  This will allow us to use
timestamps more widely for debugging all locks.

ac90a25525 [DLM] dump more lock values
Add two more output fields (lkb_flags and rsb nodeid) to the new debugfs
file that dumps one lock per line.  Also, dump all locks instead of just
mastered locks.  Accordingly, use a suffix of _locks instead of _master.

I left off a dlm_hold_rsb which causes the box to panic if you try to use
debugfs.  This patch fixes the problem.  Sorry about that,

9dd592d70b [DLM] dumping master locks
Add a new debugfs file that dumps a compact list of mastered locks.
This will be used by a userland daemon to collect state for deadlock
detection.

Also, for the existing function that prints all lock state, lock the rsb
before going through the lock lists since they can be changing in the
course of normal dlm activity.

916297aad5 [DLM] keep dlm from panicing when traversing rsb list in debugfs
This problem was originally reported against GFS6.1, but the same issue exists
in upstream DLM.  This patch keeps the rsb iterator assigning under the rsbtbl
list lock.  Each time we process an rsb we grab a reference to it to make sure
it is not freed out from underneath us, and then put it when we get the next rsb
in the list or move onto another list.

00977a59b9 [PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 6
Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const".  Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data.  In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

bba9dfd835 [GFS2] inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_private (gfs)
The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
on a UP x86.  (It would be more on an x86_64 system).  This is a 10% reduction
in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
(i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).

This patch:

The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer.  Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer.  This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.

I have that patch in my stack but didn't send it; for some reason I
thought it was already changed in your git tree.

Argh, sorry about that... when I fixed these a long time ago they somehow
never got included in the quilt patches.  I mistakenly assumed the quilt
