This patch handles freeing of lockspace resources asynchronously besides
the release_lockspace() context. The release_lockspace() context is
sometimes called in a time critical context, e.g. umount syscall. Most
every user space init system will timeout if it takes too long. To
reduce the potential waiting time we deregister in release_lockspace()
the lockspace from the DLM subsystem and do the actual releasing of
lockspace resource in a worker of a workqueue following recommendation
of:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/49925af7-78a8-a3dd-bce6-cfc02e1a9236@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp/T/#u
as flushing of system workqueues are not allowed. The most time to
release the DLM resources are spent to release the data structures
"ls->ls_lkbxa" and "ls->ls_rsbtbl" as they iterate over each entries and
those data structures can contain millions of entries. This patch handles
for now only freeing of those data structures as those operations are
the most reason why release_lockspace() blocking of being returned.

This patch removes the releasing of the "struct dlm ls" resource out of

lockspace kobject structure that should always being the last put call.
This prepares to split the releasing of all lockspace resources
asynchronously in the background and just deregister everything in
release_lockspace().

The DLM rcom handling has a check that all exflags are the same for the

such handling, however DLM_LSFL_SOFTIRQ does not require this handling

The old terminology of "toss" and "keep" is no longer an
accurate description of the rsb states and lists, so change
the names to "inactive" and "active". The old names had
also been copied into the scanning code, which is changed
back to use the "scan" name.
- "active" rsb structs have lkb's attached, and are ref counted.
- "inactive" rsb structs have no lkb's attached, are not ref counted.
- "scan" list is for rsb's that can be freed after a timeout period.
- "slow" lists are for infrequent iterations through active or
inactive rsb structs.
- inactive rsb structs that are directory records will not be put
on the scan list, since they are not freed based on timeouts.
- inactive rsb structs that are not directory records will be
put on the scan list to be freed, since they are not longer needed.

Currently the scand kthread acts like a garbage collection for expired
rsbs on toss list, to clean them up after a certain timeout. It triggers
every couple of seconds and iterates over the toss list while holding
ls_rsbtbl_lock for the whole hash bucket iteration.
To reduce the amount of time holding ls_rsbtbl_lock, we now handle the
disposal of expired rsbs using a per-lockspace timer that expires for the
earliest tossed rsb on the lockspace toss queue. This toss queue is
ordered according to the rsb res_toss_time with the earliest tossed rsb
as the first entry. The toss timer will only trylock() necessary locks,
since it is low priority garbage collection, and will rearm the timer
if trylock() fails. If the timer function does not find any expired
rsb's, it rearms the timer with the next earliest expired rsb.

This patch reverts commit 2c3fa6ae4d ("dlm: check required context

dlm_lowcomms_close(), is called when the cluster manager tells the node
got fenced which means on midcomms/lowcomms layer to disconnect the node
from the cluster communication. The node can rejoin the cluster later.
This patch was ensuring no new message were able to be triggered when we
are in the close() function context. This was done by checking if the
lockspace has been stopped. However there is a missing check that we
only need to check specific lockspaces where the fenced node is member
of. This is currently complicated because there is no way to easily
check if a node is part of a specific lockspace without stopping the
recovery. For now we just revert this commit as it is just a check to
finding possible leaks of stopping lockspaces before close() is called.

This patch removes code parts which was declared deprecated by
commit 6b0afc0cc3 ("fs: dlm: don't use deprecated timeout features by
default"). This contains the following dlm functionality:
- start a cancel of a dlm request did not complete after certain timeout:
The current way how dlm cancellation works and interfering with other
dlm requests triggered by the user can end in an overlapping and
returning in -EBUSY. The most user don't handle this case and are
unaware that DLM can return such errno in such situation. Due the
timeout the user are mostly unaware when this happens.
- start a netlink warning messages for user space if dlm requests did
not complete after certain timeout:
This feature was never being built in the only known dlm user space side.
As we are to remove the timeout cancellation feature we can directly
remove this feature as well.
There might be the possibility to bring the timeout cancellation feature
back. However the current way of handling the -EBUSY case which is only
a software limitation and not a hardware limitation should be changed.
We minimize the current code base in DLM cancellation feature to not have
to deal with those existing features while solving the DLM cancellation
feature in general.
UAPI define DLM_LSFL_TIMEWARN is commented as deprecated and reserved
value. We should avoid at first to give it a new meaning but let
possible users still compile by keeping this define. In far future we
can give this flag a new meaning. The same for the DLM_LKF_TIMEOUT lock
request flag.

- driver core changes to work to make struct bus_type able to be moved

pointed out a number of areas in the driver core where we are
passing around and working with structures that really do not have

last release with kobject changes) in moving struct bus_type to be
constant. We didn't quite make it for this release, but the
remaining patches will be finished up for the release after this
one, but the groundwork has been laid for this effort.

The current dlm version detection is very complex due to backwards
compatablilty with earlier dlm protocol versions. It takes some time to
detect if a peer node has a specific DLM version. If it's not detected,
we just cut the socket connection. There could be cases where the local
node has not detected the version yet, but the peer node has. In these
cases, we are trying to shutdown the dlm connection with a FIN/ACK message
exchange to be sure the other peer is ready to shutdown the connection on
dlm application level. However this mechanism is only available on DLM
protocol version 3.2 and we need to be sure the DLM version is detected
before.
To make it more robust we introduce a a "best effort" wait to wait for the
version detection before shutdown the dlm connection. This need to be
done before the kthread recoverd for recovery handling is stopped,
because recovery handling will trigger enough messages to have a version
detection going on.
It is a corner case which was detected by modprobe dlm_locktroture module
and rmmod dlm_locktorture module directly afterwards (in a looping
behaviour). In practice probably nobody would leave a lockspace immediately
after joining it.

This patch removes the ls_remove_wait waitqueue handling. The current
handling tries to wait before a lookup is send out for a identically
resource name which is going to be removed. Hereby the remove message
should be send out before the new lookup message. The reason is that
after a lookup request and response will actually use the specific
remote rsb. A followed remove message would delete the rsb on the remote
side but it's still being used.
To reach a similar behaviour we simple send the remove message out while
the rsb lookup lock is held and the rsb is removed from the toss list.
Other find_rsb() calls would never have the change to get a rsb back to
live while a remove message will be send out (without holding the lock).
This behaviour requires a non-sleepable context which should be provided
now and might be the reason why it was not implemented so in the first
place.

behavior is that the new lockspace would not be usable for some
time (especially with overlapping recoveries), and some errors
in the later part of recovery could not be returned to the caller.
Kernel callers gfs2 and cluster-md have their own wait handling to
wait for recovery to complete after calling dlm_new_lockspace().
This continues to work, but will be unnecessary.
