Commit 37fb3a30b4 ("fuse: fix flock") added in 3.1-rc4 caused flock() to
fail with ENOSYS with the kernel ABI version 7.16 or earlier.

Fix by falling back to testing FUSE_POSIX_LOCKS for ABI versions 7.16
and earlier.

Commit a9ff4f87 "fuse: support BSD locking semantics" overlooked a
number of issues with supporing flock locks over existing POSIX
locking infrastructure:

  - it's not backward compatible, passing flock(2) calls to userspace
    unconditionally (if userspace sets FUSE_POSIX_LOCKS)

  - it doesn't cater for the fact that flock locks are automatically
    unlocked on file release

  - it doesn't take into account the fact that flock exclusive locks
    (write locks) don't need an fd opened for write.

The last one invalidates the original premise of the patch that flock
locks can be emulated with POSIX locks.

This patch fixes the first two issues.  The last one needs to be fixed
in userspace if the filesystem assumed that a write lock will happen
only on a file operned for write (as in the case of the current fuse
library).

<title>more conservative S_NOSEC handling</title>

Caching "we have already removed suid/caps" was overenthusiastic as merged.
On network filesystems we might have had suid/caps set on another client,
silently picked by this client on revalidate, all of that *without* clearing
the S_NOSEC flag.

AFAICS, the only reasonably sane way to deal with that is
	* new superblock flag; unless set, S_NOSEC is not going to be set.
	* local block filesystems set it in their -&gt;mount() (more accurately,
mount_bdev() does, so does btrfs -&gt;mount(), users of mount_bdev() other than
local block ones clear it)
	* if any network filesystem (or a cluster one) wants to use S_NOSEC,
it'll need to set MS_NOSEC in sb-&gt;s_flags *AND* take care to clear S_NOSEC when
inode attribute changes are picked from other clients.

It's not an earth-shattering hole (anybody that can set suid on another client
will almost certainly be able to write to the file before doing that anyway),
but it's a bug that needs fixing.

<title>exportfs: Return the minimum required handle size</title>

The exportfs encode handle function should return the minimum required
handle size. This helps user to find out the handle size by passing 0
handle size in the first step and then redoing to the call again with
the returned handle size value.

Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging,
and delay users have been converted to use the new API for that.
So lets kill off the old plugging along with aops-&gt;sync_page().
