Pull nfsd changes from J Bruce Fields:
 "Miscellaneous bugfixes, plus:

   - An overhaul of the DRC cache by Jeff Layton.  The main effect is
     just to make it larger.  This decreases the chances of intermittent
     errors especially in the UDP case.  But we'll need to watch for any
     reports of performance regressions.

   - Containerized nfsd: with some limitations, we now support
     per-container nfs-service, thanks to extensive work from Stanislav
     Kinsbursky over the last year."

Some notes about conflicts, since there were *two* non-data semantic
conflicts here:

 - idr_remove_all() had been added by a memory leak fix, but has since
   become deprecated since idr_destroy() does it for us now.

 - xs_local_connect() had been added by this branch to make AF_LOCAL
   connections be synchronous, but in the meantime Trond had changed the
   calling convention in order to avoid a RCU dereference.

There were a couple of more obvious actual source-level conflicts due to
the hlist traversal changes and one just due to code changes next to
each other, but those were trivial.

* 'for-3.9' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux: (49 commits)
  SUNRPC: make AF_LOCAL connect synchronous
  nfsd: fix compiler warning about ambiguous types in nfsd_cache_csum
  svcrpc: fix rpc server shutdown races
  svcrpc: make svc_age_temp_xprts enqueue under sv_lock

<title>hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators</title>

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj-&gt;member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

<title>SUNRPC: move cache_detail-&gt;cache_request callback call to cache_read()</title>

<content type='text'>
The reason to move cache_request() callback call from
sunrpc_cache_pipe_upcall() to cache_read() is that this garantees, that cache
access will be done userspace process context (only userspace process have
proper root context).
This is required for NFSd support in container: svc_export_request() (which is
cache_request callback) calls d_path(), which, in turn, traverse dentry up to
current-&gt;fs-&gt;root. Kernel threads always have global root, while container
have be in "root jail" - i.e. have it's own nested root.

For most of SUNRPC caches (except NFS DNS cache) cache_detail-&gt;cache_upcall is
redundant since all that it's implementations are doing is calling
sunrpc_cache_pipe_upcall() with proper function address argument.
Cache request function address is now stored on cache_detail structure and
thus all the code can be simplified.
Now, for those cache details, which doesn't have cache_upcall callback (the
only one, which still has is nfs_dns_resolve_template)
sunrpc_cache_pipe_upcall will be called instead.

The buffer size in read_flush() is too small for the longest possible values
for it. This can lead to a kernel stack corruption:

Initalizers for deferrable delayed_work are confused.

* __DEFERRED_WORK_INITIALIZER()
* DECLARE_DEFERRED_WORK()
* INIT_DELAYED_WORK_DEFERRABLE()

Rename them to

* __DEFERRABLE_WORK_INITIALIZER()
* DECLARE_DEFERRABLE_WORK()
* INIT_DEFERRABLE_WORK()

This patch doesn't cause any functional changes.
