Subject: [PATCH v2 00/40] afs: Fix probe handling, server rotation and RO volume callback handling

Hi Marc,

Here are a set of patches to make some substantial fixes to the afs
filesystem including:

 (1) Fix fileserver probe handling so that the next round of probes doesn't
     break ongoing server/address rotation by clearing all the probe result
     tracking.  This could occasionally cause the rotation algorithm to
     drop straight through, give a 'successful' result without actually
     emitting any RPC calls, leaving the reply buffer in an undefined
     state.

     Instead, detach the probe results into a separate struct
     and allocate a new one each time we start probing and update the
     pointer to it.  Probes are also sent in order of address preference to
     try and improve the chance that the preferred one will complete first.

 (2) Fix server rotation so that it uses configurable address preferences
     across on the probes that have completed so far than ranking them by
     RTT as the latter doesn't necessarily give the best route.  The
     preference list can be altered by echoing commands into
     /proc/net/afs/addr_prefs.

 (3) Fix the handling of Read-Only (and Backup) volume callbacks as there
     is one per volume, not one per file, so if someone performs a command
     that, say, offlines the volume but doesn't change it, when it comes
     back online we don't spam the server with a status fetch for every
     vnode we're using.  Instead, check the Creation timestamp in the
     VolSync record when prompted by a callback break.

 (4) Handle volume regression (ie. a RW volume being restored from a
     backup) by scrubbing all cache data for that volume.  This is detected
     from the VolSync creation timestamp.

 (5) Adjust abort handling and abort -> error mapping to match better with
     what other AFS clients do.

 (6) Fix offline and busy volume state handling as they only apply to
     individual server instances and not entire volumes and the rotation
     algorithm should go and look at other servers if available.  Also make
     it sleep briefly before each retry if all the volume instances are
     unavailable.

In addition there are a number of small fixes in rxrpc and afs included
here so that those problems don't affect testing.

The patches can be found here:

Thanks,

Changes
=======
ver #2)
 - Drop the first two rxrpc fix patches - one has gone through the net tree
   and the other needs a bit more work, but neither is necessary for this
   series.
 - Add a couple of missing symbol exports.
 - Treat UAEIO as VIO too.
 - Switch to using atomic64_t for creation & update times because 64-bit
   cmpxchg isn't available on some 32-bit arches.
 - Some patches went upstream separately as fixes (commit
   5b7ad877e4d81f8904ce83982b1ba5c6e83deccb).
 - Use atomic64_t for vnode->cb_expires_at() as 64-bit xchg() is not
   univerally available.
 - Use rcu_access_pointer() rather than passing an __rcu pointer directly to
   kfree_rcu().
