of ffs_reload()'s mountp parameter to mp in rev.1.28 of ffs_vnops.c
had not been merged here.
ext2fs_reload() is still missing locking from not merging other changes
to ffs_reload(), but none of these is related to recent locking changes.
Introduce two new macros MNT_ILOCK(mp)/MNT_IUNLOCK(mp) to
operate on this mutex transparently.
Eventually new mutex will be protecting more fields in
struct mount, not only vnode list.

wasn't curthread, i.e. when we receive a thread pointer to use
as a function argument. Use VOP_UNLOCK/vrele in these cases.
The only case there td != curthread known at the moment is
boot() calling sync with thread0 pointer.
This fixes the panic on shutdown people have reported.
code has the typical branch prediction detour, which creates cross-
section branches. A LINT kernel is apparently large enough nowadays
that the .text and .text2 sections cannot always be layed-out so that
branches between them reach.
The fix is to stop using the alpha-specific bitops and instead use
the portable implementation used by all platforms other than alpha
and i386.
- In ULCK_BUF we no longer need to acquire the lock, just write the buf out.
- The combination of these changes eliminates one more use of B_LOCKED which
is in the way of making the buffer cache SMP safe. In the long term
ext2fs should probably not try to optimize the use of their metadata bufs
with a private cache. This will starve the rest of the system for buffers
in the extreme case.
Discussed with: bde (A long time ago..)
Tested on: md disk/x86
implementations. Use those on platforms that don't have MD
headers. Remove the ia64 MD header. We're going to use the C
implementation there.

contain the filedescriptor number on opens from userland.
The index is used rather than a "struct file *" since it conveys a bit
more information, which may be useful to in particular fdescfs and /dev/fd/*
For now pass -1 all over the place.
- Define one flag GB_LOCK_NOWAIT that tells getblk() to pass the LK_NOWAIT
flag to the initial BUF_LOCK(). This will eventually be used in cases
were we want to use a buffer only if it is not currently in use.
- Convert all consumers of the getblk() api to use this extra parameter.

Remove extraneous uses of vop_null, instead defering to the default op.
Rename vnode type "vfs" to the more descriptive "syncer".
Fix formatting for various filesystems that use vop_print.
- Remove the buftimelock mutex and acquire the buf's interlock to protect
these fields instead.
- Hold the vnode interlock while locking bufs on the clean/dirty queues.
This reduces some cases from one BUF_LOCK with a LK_NOWAIT and another
BUF_LOCK with a LK_TIMEFAIL to a single lock.

kern/vfs_defaults.c it is wrong for the individual filesystems to use
the std* functions as that prevents override of the default.

In the 'found' case for ext2_lookup() the underlying bp's data was
being accessed after the bp had been releaed. A simple move of the
brelse() solves the problem.
The PR reports that this caused panics running the GDB testsuite unless
NO_GEOM is configured.

that use it. Specifically, vop_stdlock uses the lock pointed to by
vp->v_vnlock. By default, getnewvnode sets up vp->v_vnlock to
reference vp->v_lock. Filesystems that wish to use the default
do not need to allocate a lock at the front of their node structure
(as some still did) or do a lockinit. They can simply start using
vn_lock/VOP_UNLOCK. Filesystems that wish to manage their own locks,
but still use the vop_stdlock functions (such as nullfs) can simply
replace vp->v_vnlock with a pointer to the lock that they wish to
have used for the vnode. Such filesystems are responsible for
setting the vp->v_vnlock back to the default in their vop_reclaim
routine (e.g., vp->v_vnlock = &vp->v_lock).
In theory, this set of changes cleans up the existing filesystem
lock interface and should have no function change to the existing
locking scheme.
