This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
const.  Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups

The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
cache clean)

Now the only user who are using generic_ffs() is ntfs filesystem.  This patch
isolates generic_ffs() as ntfs_ffs() for ntfs.

<title>[PATCH] cpuset memory spread: slab cache filesystems</title>

Mark file system inode and similar slab caches subject to SLAB_MEM_SPREAD
memory spreading.

If a slab cache is marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD, then anytime that a task that's
in a cpuset with the 'memory_spread_slab' option enabled goes to allocate
from such a slab cache, the allocations are spread evenly over all the
memory nodes (task-&gt;mems_allowed) allowed to that task, instead of favoring
allocation on the node local to the current cpu.

The following inode and similar caches are marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD:

    file                               cache

    net/sunrpc/rpc_pipe.c              rpc_inode_cache

The choice of which slab caches to so mark was quite simple.  I marked
those already marked SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT, except for fs/xfs, dentry_cache,
inode_cache, and buffer_head, which were marked in a previous patch.  Even
though SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT is for a different purpose, it marks the same
potentially large file system i/o related slab caches as we need for memory
spreading.

Given that the rule now becomes "wherever you would have used a
SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT slab cache flag before (usually the inode cache), use
the SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag too", this should be easy enough to maintain.
Future file system writers will just copy one of the existing file system
slab cache setups and tend to get it right without thinking.
