If the IOCB_DSYNC flag is set a sync is not being performed by
fuse_file_write_iter.

Honor IOCB_DSYNC/IOCB_SYNC by setting O_DYSNC/O_SYNC respectively in the
flags filed of the write request.

We don't need to sync data or metadata, since fuse_perform_write() does
write-through and the filesystem is responsible for updating file times.

<title>fuse: Add reference counting for fuse_io_priv</title>

<id>744742d692e37ad5c20630e57d526c8f2e2fe3c9</id>
<content type='text'>
The 'reqs' member of fuse_io_priv serves two purposes. First is to track
the number of oustanding async requests to the server and to signal that
the io request is completed. The second is to be a reference count on the
structure to know when it can be freed.

For sync io requests these purposes can be at odds.  fuse_direct_IO() wants
to block until the request is done, and since the signal is sent when
'reqs' reaches 0 it cannot keep a reference to the object. Yet it needs to
use the object after the userspace server has completed processing
requests. This leads to some handshaking and special casing that it
needlessly complicated and responsible for at least one race condition.

It's much cleaner and safer to maintain a separate reference count for the
object lifecycle and to let 'reqs' just be a count of outstanding requests
to the userspace server. Then we can know for sure when it is safe to free
the object without any handshaking or special cases.

The catch here is that most of the time these objects are stack allocated
and should not be freed. Initializing these objects with a single reference
that is never released prevents accidental attempts to free the objects.

The problem is that fuse_dev_alloc() acquires an extra reference to cc.fc,
and the original ref count is never dropped.

Allow fuse device clones to refer to be distinguished.  This patch just
adds the infrastructure by associating a separate "struct fuse_dev" with
each clone.

Use fuse_abort_conn() instead of fuse_conn_kill() in fuse_put_super().
This flushes and aborts requests still on any queues.  But since we've
already reset fc-&gt;connected, those requests would not be useful anyway and
would be flushed when the fuse device is closed.

Next patches will rely on requests being flushed before the superblock is
destroyed.

Use fuse_abort_conn() in cuse_process_init_reply() too, since it makes no
difference there, and we can get rid of fuse_conn_kill().
