Most of the existing APIs have remained the same, but subsystems that
access file_lock fields directly need to reach into struct
file_lock_core now.

Convert to using the new file locking helper functions. Also, in later
patches we're going to introduce macros that conflict with the variable
name in afs_next_locker. Rename it.

rxrpc and kafs between them try to use the receive timestamp on the first
data packet (ie. the one with sequence number 1) as a base from which to
calculate the time at which callback promise and lock expiration occurs.

However, we don't know how long it took for the server to send us the reply
from it having completed the basic part of the operation - it might then,
for instance, have to send a bunch of a callback breaks, depending on the
particular operation.

Fix this by using the time at which the operation is issued on the client
as a base instead.  That should never be longer than the server's idea of
the expiry time.

Fixes: 781070551c26 ("afs: Fix calculation of callback expiry time")
Fixes: 2070a3e44962 ("rxrpc: Allow the reply time to be obtained on a client call")

<id>urn:sha1:f7e33bdbd6d1bdf9c3df8bba5abcf3399f957ac3</id>
<content type='text'>
We added CONFIG_MANDATORY_FILE_LOCKING in 2015, and soon after turned it
off in Fedora and RHEL8. Several other distros have followed suit.

I've heard of one problem in all that time: Someone migrated from an
older distro that supported "-o mand" to one that didn't, and the host
had a fstab entry with "mand" in it which broke on reboot. They didn't
actually _use_ mandatory locking so they just removed the mount option
and moved on.

This patch rips out mandatory locking support wholesale from the kernel,
along with the Kconfig option and the Documentation file. It also
changes the mount code to ignore the "mand" mount option instead of
erroring out, and to throw a big, ugly warning.

afs_check_for_remote_deletion() checks to see if error ENOENT is returned
by the server in response to an operation and, if so, marks the primary
vnode as having been deleted as the FID is no longer valid.

However, it's being called from the operation success functions, where no
abort has happened - and if an inline abort is recorded, it's handled by
afs_vnode_commit_status().

Fix this by actually calling the operation aborted method if provided and
having that point to afs_check_for_remote_deletion().

<content type='text'>
Fix AFS file locking to use the correct vnode pointer and remove a member
of the afs_operation struct that is never set, but it is read and followed,
causing an oops.

This can be triggered by:

	flock -s /afs/example.com/foo sleep 1

when it calls the kernel to get a file lock.

<id>urn:sha1:e49c7b2f6de7ff81ca34c56e4eeb4fa740c099f2</id>
<content type='text'>
Turn the afs_operation struct into the main way that most fileserver
operations are managed.  Various things are added to the struct, including
the following:

 (1) All the parameters and results of the relevant operations are moved
     into it, removing corresponding fields from the afs_call struct.
     afs_call gets a pointer to the op.

 (2) The target volume is made the main focus of the operation, rather than
     the target vnode(s), and a bunch of op-&gt;vnode-&gt;volume are made
     op-&gt;volume instead.

 (3) Two vnode records are defined (op-&gt;file[]) for the vnode(s) involved
     in most operations.  The vnode record (struct afs_vnode_param)
     contains:

	- The vnode pointer.

	- The fid of the vnode to be included in the parameters or that was
          returned in the reply (eg. FS.MakeDir).

	- The status and callback information that may be returned in the
     	  reply about the vnode.

	- Callback break and data version tracking for detecting
          simultaneous third-parth changes.

 (4) Pointers to dentries to be updated with new inodes.

 (5) An operations table pointer.  The table includes pointers to functions
     for issuing AFS and YFS-variant RPCs, handling the success and abort
     of an operation and handling post-I/O-lock local editing of a
     directory.

To make this work, the following function restructuring is made:

 (A) The rotation loop that issues calls to fileservers that can be found
     in each function that wants to issue an RPC (such as afs_mkdir()) is
     extracted out into common code, in a new file called fs_operation.c.

 (B) The rotation loops, such as the one in afs_mkdir(), are replaced with
     a much smaller piece of code that allocates an operation, sets the
     parameters and then calls out to the common code to do the actual
     work.

 (C) The code for handling the success and failure of an operation are
     moved into operation functions (as (5) above) and these are called
     from the core code at appropriate times.

 (D) The pseudo inode getting stuff used by the dynamic root code is moved
     over into dynroot.c.

 (E) struct afs_iget_data is absorbed into the operation struct and
     afs_iget() expects to be given an op pointer and a vnode record.

 (F) Point (E) doesn't work for the root dir of a volume, but we know the
     FID in advance (it's always vnode 1, unique 1), so a separate inode
     getter, afs_root_iget(), is provided to special-case that.

 (G) The inode status init/update functions now also take an op and a vnode
     record.

 (H) The RPC marshalling functions now, for the most part, just take an
     afs_operation struct as their only argument.  All the data they need
     is held there.  The result delivery functions write their answers
     there as well.

 (I) The call is attached to the operation and then the operation core does
     the waiting.

And then the new operation code is, for the moment, made to just initialise
the operation, get the appropriate vnode I/O locks and do the same rotation
loop as before.

This lays the foundation for the following changes in the future:

 (*) Overhauling the rotation (again).

 (*) Support for asynchronous I/O, where the fileserver rotation must be
     done asynchronously also.
