While it is true that reading from an unmirrored source always uses
index 0, that is no longer true for mirrored sources when we fail over.

<title>NFSv4.2: fix client's attribute cache management for copy_file_range</title>

After client is done with the COPY operation, it needs to invalidate
its pagecache (as it did no reading or writing of the data locally)
and it needs to invalidate it's attributes just like it would have
for a read on the source file and write on the destination file.

Once the linux server started giving out read delegations to
read+write opens, the destination file of the copy_file range
started having delegations and not doing syncup on close of the
file leading to xfstest failures for generic/430,431,432,433,565.

v2: changing cache_validity needs to be protected by the i_lock.

nfs_readdir_page_filler() iterates over entries in a directory, reusing
the same security label buffer, but does not reset the buffer's length.
This causes decode_attr_security_label() to return -ERANGE if an entry's
security label is longer than the previous one's. This error, in
nfs4_decode_dirent(), only gets passed up as -EAGAIN, which causes another
failed attempt to copy into the buffer. The second error is ignored and
the remaining entries do not show up in ls, specifically the getdents64()
syscall.

Reproduce by creating multiple files in NFS and giving one of the later
files a longer security label. ls will not see that file nor any that are
added afterwards, though they will exist on the backend.

In nfs_readdir_page_filler(), reset security label buffer length before
every reuse

If a write delegation isn't available, the Linux NFS client uses
a zero-stateid when performing a SETATTR.

NFSv4.0 provides no mechanism for an NFS server to match such a
request to a particular client. It recalls all delegations for that
file, even delegations held by the client issuing the request. If
that client happens to hold a read delegation, the server will
recall it immediately, resulting in an NFS4ERR_DELAY/CB_RECALL/
DELEGRETURN sequence.

Optimize out this pipeline bubble by having the client return any
delegations it may hold on a file before it issues a
SETATTR(zero-stateid) on that file.

A client should be able to handle getting an ERR_DELAY error
while doing a LOCK call to reclaim state due to delegation being
recalled. This is a transient error that can happen due to server
moving its volumes and invalidating its file location cache and
upon reference to it during the LOCK call needing to do an
expensive lookup (leading to an ERR_DELAY error on a PUTFH).

The current mirrored read failover code is correctly resetting the mirror
index between failed reads, however it is not able to actually flip the
RPC call over to the next RPC client.
The end result is that we keep resending the RPC call to the same client
over and over.

The fix is to use the pnfs_read_resend_pnfs() mechanism to schedule a
new RPC call, but we need to add the ability to pass in a mirror
index so that we always retry the next mirror in the list.
