Move NFS to using fscache DIO API instead of the old upstream I/O API as
that has been removed. This is a stopgap solution as the intention is that
at sometime in the future, the cache will move to using larger blocks and
won't be able to store individual pages in order to deal with the potential
for data corruption due to the backing filesystem being able insert/remove
bridging blocks of zeros into its extent list[1].
NFS then reads and writes cache pages synchronously and one page at a time.
The preferred change would be to use the netfs lib, but the new I/O API can
be used directly. It's just that as the cache now needs to track data for
itself, caching blocks may exceed page size...
This code is somewhat borrowed from my "fallback I/O" patchset[2].

Provide a function to change the size of the storage attached to a cookie,
to match the size of the file being cached when it's changed by truncate or
fallocate:
void fscache_resize_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
loff_t new_size);
This acts synchronously and is expected to run under the inode lock of the
caller.

Cachefiles has a problem in that it needs to keep the backing file for a
cookie open whilst there are local modifications pending that need to be
written to it. However, we don't want to keep the file open indefinitely,
as that causes EMFILE/ENFILE/ENOMEM problems.
Reopening the cache file, however, is a problem if this is being done due
to writeback triggered by exit(). Some filesystems will oops if we try to
open a file in that context because they want to access current->fs or
other resources that have already been dismantled.
To get around this, I added the following:
(1) An inode flag, I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB, to be set on a network filesystem
inode to indicate that we have a usage count on the cookie caching
that inode.
(2) A flag in struct writeback_control, unpinned_fscache_wb, that is set
when __writeback_single_inode() clears the last dirty page from
i_pages - at which point it clears I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and sets this
flag.
This has to be done here so that clearing I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB can be
done atomically with the check of PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY that clears
I_DIRTY_PAGES.
(3) A function, fscache_set_page_dirty(), which if it is not set, sets
I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB and calls fscache_use_cookie() to pin the cache
resources.
(4) A function, fscache_unpin_writeback(), to be called by ->write_inode()
to unuse the cookie.
(5) A function, fscache_clear_inode_writeback(), to be called when the
inode is evicted, before clear_inode() is called. This cleans up any
lingering I_PINNING_FSCACHE_WB.
The network filesystem can then use these tools to make sure that
fscache_write_to_cache() can write locally modified data to the cache as
well as to the server.
For the future, I'm working on write helpers for netfs lib that should
allow this facility to be removed by keeping track of the dirty regions
separately - but that's incomplete at the moment and is also going to be
affected by folios, one way or another, since it deals with pages

Provide a higher-level function than fscache_write() to perform a write
from an inode's pagecache to the cache, whilst fending off concurrent
writes by means of the PG_fscache mark on a page:
void fscache_write_to_cache(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
struct address_space *mapping,
loff_t start,
size_t len,
loff_t i_size,
netfs_io_terminated_t term_func,
void *term_func_priv,
bool caching);
If caching is false, this function does nothing except call (*term_func)()
if given. It assumes that, in such a case, PG_fscache will not have been
set on the pages.
Otherwise, if caching is true, this function requires the source pages to
have had PG_fscache set on them before calling. start and len define the
region of the file to be modified and i_size indicates the new file size.
The source pages are extracted from the mapping.
term_func and term_func_priv work as for fscache_write(). The PG_fscache
marks will be cleared at the end of the operation, before term_func is
called or the function otherwise returns.
There is an additonal helper function to clear the PG_fscache bits from a
range of pages:
void fscache_clear_page_bits(struct fscache_cookie *cookie,
struct address_space *mapping,
loff_t start, size_t len,
bool caching);
If caching is true, the pages to be managed are expected to be located on
mapping in the range defined by start and len. If caching is false, it
does nothing.

Provide a function to begin a read operation:
int fscache_begin_read_operation(
struct netfs_cache_resources *cres,
struct fscache_cookie *cookie)
This is primarily intended to be called by network filesystems on behalf of
netfslib, but may also be called to use the I/O access functions directly.
It attaches the resources required by the cache to cres struct from the
supplied cookie.
This holds access to the cache behind the cookie for the duration of the
operation and forces cache withdrawal and cookie invalidation to perform
synchronisation on the operation. cres->inval_counter is set from the
cookie at this point so that it can be compared at the end of the
operation.
Note that this does not guarantee that the cache state is fully set up and
able to perform I/O immediately; looking up and creation may be left in
progress in the background. The operations intended to be called by the
network filesystem, such as reading and writing, are expected to wait for
the cookie to move to the correct state.
This will, however, potentially sleep, waiting for a certain minimum state
to be set or for operations such as invalidate to advance far enough that
I/O can resume.
Also provide a function for the cache to call to wait for the cache object
to get to a state where it can be used for certain things:
bool fscache_wait_for_operation(struct netfs_cache_resources *cres,
enum fscache_want_stage stage);
This looks at the cache resources provided by the begin function and waits
for them to get to an appropriate stage. There's a choice of wanting just
some parameters (FSCACHE_WANT_PARAM) or the ability to do I/O
(FSCACHE_WANT_READ or FSCACHE_WANT_WRITE).

rewrite.
A small piece of linux/fscache.h is left as that is #included by a bunch of

Add an alternate API by which the cache can be accessed through a kiocb,
doing async DIO, rather than using the current API that tells the cache
where all the pages are.
The new API is intended to be used in conjunction with the netfs helper
library. A filesystem must pick one or the other and not mix them.
Filesystems wanting to use the new API must #define FSCACHE_USE_NEW_IO_API
before #including the header. This prevents them from continuing to use
the old API at the same time as there are incompatibilities in how the
PG_fscache page bit is used.
Changes:
v6:
- Provide a routine to shape a write so that the start and length can be
aligned for DIO[3].
v4:
- Use the vfs_iocb_iter_read/write() helpers[1]
- Move initial definition of fscache_begin_read_operation() here.
- Remove a commented-out line[2]
- Combine ki->term_func calls in cachefiles_read_complete()[2].
- Remove explicit NULL initialiser[2].
- Remove extern on func decl[2].
- Put in param names on func decl[2].
- Remove redundant else[2].
- Fill out the kdoc comment for fscache_begin_read_operation().
- Rename fs/fscache/page2.c to io.c to match later patches.
