<title>sunrpc: make the cache cleaner workqueue deferrable</title>

<id>8eab945c5616fc984e97b922d6a2559be93f39a1</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch makes the cache_cleaner workqueue deferrable, to prevent
unnecessary system wake-ups, which is very important for embedded
battery-powered devices.

do_cache_clean() is called every 30 seconds at the moment, and often
makes the system wake up from its power-save sleep state. With this
change, when the workqueue uses a deferrable timer, the
do_cache_clean() invocation will be delayed and combined with the
closest "real" wake-up. This improves the power consumption situation.

Note, I tried to create a DECLARE_DELAYED_WORK_DEFERRABLE() helper
macro, similar to DECLARE_DELAYED_WORK(), but failed because of the
way the timer wheel core stores the deferrable flag (it is the
LSBit in the time-&gt;base pointer). My attempt to define a static
variable with this bit set ended up with the "initializer element is
not constant" error.

Thus, I have to use run-time initialization, so I created a new
cache_initialize() function which is called once when sunrpc is
being initialized.

Now that cache_ioctl_procfs() calls the bkl explicitly, we need to
include the relevant header as well.

This fixes the following build error:

	net/sunrpc/cache.c: In function 'cache_ioctl_procfs':
	net/sunrpc/cache.c:1355: error: implicit declaration of function 'lock_kernel'
	net/sunrpc/cache.c:1359: error: implicit declaration of function 'unlock_kernel'

Push down the bkl from procfs's ioctl main handler to its users.
Only three procfs users implement an ioctl (non unlocked) handler.
Turn them into unlocked_ioctl and push down the Devil inside.

v2: PDE(inode)-&gt;data doesn't need to be under bkl
v3: And don't forget to git-add the result
v4: Use wrappers to pushdown instead of an invasive and error prone
    handlers surgery.

If sunrpc_cache_lookup finds an expired entry, remove it from
the cache and return a freshly created non-VALID entry instead.
This ensures that we only ever get a usable entry, or an
entry that will become usable once an update arrives.
i.e. we will never need to repeat the lookup.

This allows us to remove the 'is_expired' test from cache_check
(i.e. from cache_is_valid).  cache_check should never get an expired
entry as 'lookup' will never return one.  If it does happen - due to
inconvenient timing - then just accept it as still valid, it won't be
very much past it's use-by date.
