PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - &lt;foo&gt; &lt;&lt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - &lt;foo&gt; &gt;&gt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -&gt; PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -&gt; get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -&gt; put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

I noticed that all the callers of this function pass cinfo-&gt;mds-&gt;list as
an argument in addition to the cinfo structure itself.  Let's get rid of
the extra argument, since it doesn't seem to be adding anything.

<title>NFS: Use wait_on_atomic_t() for unlock after readahead</title>

<id>210c7c1750fdf769647d1d526c9ea34c412c9eee</id>
<content type='text'>
The use of wait_on_atomic_t() for waiting on I/O to complete before
unlocking allows us to git rid of the NFS_IO_INPROGRESS flag, and thus the
nfs_iocounter's flags member, and finally the nfs_iocounter altogether.
The count of I/O is moved to the lock context, and the counter
increment/decrement functions become simple enough to open-code.

The flexfiles layout in particular, seems to want to poke around in the
O_DIRECT flags when retransmitting.
This patch sets up an interface to allow it to call back into O_DIRECT
to handle retransmission correctly. It also fixes a potential bug whereby
we could change the behaviour of O_DIRECT if an error is already pending.
