When reading from a loop device backed by a fuse file it deadlocks on
lock_page().

This is because the page is already locked by the read() operation done on
the loop device.  In this case we don't want to either lock the page or
dirty it.

So do what fs/direct-io.c does: only dirty the page for ITER_IOVEC vectors.

fuse_flush() calls write_inode_now() that triggers writeback, but actual
writeback will happen later, on fuse_sync_writes(). If an error happens,
fuse_writepage_end() will set error bit in mapping-&gt;flags. So, we have to
check mapping-&gt;flags after fuse_sync_writes().

<title>mm: move most file-based accounting to the node</title>

<content type='text'>
There are now a number of accounting oddities such as mapped file pages
being accounted for on the node while the total number of file pages are
accounted on the zone.  This can be coped with to some extent but it's
confusing so this patch moves the relevant file-based accounted.  Due to
throttling logic in the page allocator for reliable OOM detection, it is
still necessary to track dirty and writeback pages on a per-zone basis.

<title>fuse: improve aio directIO write performance for size extending writes</title>

<id>7879c4e58b7c884ee62b9306721dd1106e624b52</id>
<content type='text'>
While sending the blocking directIO in fuse, the write request is broken
into sub-requests, each of default size 128k and all the requests are sent
in non-blocking background mode if async_dio mode is supported by libfuse.
The process which issue the write wait for the completion of all the
sub-requests. Sending multiple requests parallely gives a chance to perform
parallel writes in the user space fuse implementation if it is
multi-threaded and hence improves the performance.

When there is a size extending aio dio write, we switch to blocking mode so
that we can properly update the size of the file after completion of the
writes. However, in this situation all the sub-requests are sent in
serialized manner where the next request is sent only after receiving the
reply of the current request. Hence the multi-threaded user space
implementation is not utilized properly.

This patch changes the size extending aio dio behavior to exactly follow
blocking dio. For multi threaded fuse implementation having 10 threads and
using buffer size of 64MB to perform async directIO, we are getting double
the speed.
