When wb_writeback() hasn't written anything it will re-acquire the inode
lock before calling inode_wait_for_writeback.
This change tests the sync bit first so that is doesn't need to drop &
re-acquire the lock if the inode became available while wb_writeback() was
waiting to get the lock.

Page migration requires rmap to be able to find all ptes mapping a page
at all times, otherwise the migration entry can be instantiated, but it
is possible to leave one behind if the second rmap_walk fails to find
the page. If this page is later faulted, migration_entry_to_page() will
call BUG because the page is locked indicating the page was migrated by
the migration PTE not cleaned up. For example
kernel BUG at include/linux/swapops.h:105!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP

There is a race between shift_arg_pages and migration that triggers this
bug. A temporary stack is setup during exec and later moved. If
migration moves a page in the temporary stack and the VMA is then removed
before migration completes, the migration PTE may not be found leading to
a BUG when the stack is faulted.
This patch causes pages within the temporary stack during exec to be
skipped by migration. It does this by marking the VMA covering the
temporary stack with an otherwise impossible combination of VMA flags.
These flags are cleared when the temporary stack is moved to its final
location.

Don't put struct file on the stack as it takes up quite a lot of space
and violates lifetime rules for struct file.
Rather than calling afs_readpage() indirectly from the directory routines by
way of read_mapping_page(), split afs_readpage() to have afs_page_filler()
that's given a key instead of a file and call read_cache_page(), specifying the
new function directly. Use it in afs_readpages() as well.
Also make use of this in afs_mntpt_check_symlink() too for the same reason.

This is a seriously simplified patch from Eric Sandeen; copy of
rationale follows:
===
mounting stacked ecryptfs on ecryptfs has been shown to lead to bugs
in testing. For crypto info in xattr, there is no mechanism for handling
this at all, and for normal file headers, we run into other trouble:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008
IP: [<ffffffffa015b0b3>] ecryptfs_d_revalidate+0x43/0xa0 [ecryptfs]
...
There doesn't seem to be any good usecase for this, so I'd suggest just
disallowing the configuration.
Based on a patch originally, I believe, from Mike Halcrow.

The trace above is totally reproducible by doing a cross-directory
rename on an ecryptfs directory.
The issue seems to be that sys_renameat() does lock_rename() then calls
into the filesystem; if the filesystem is ecryptfs, then
ecryptfs_rename() again does lock_rename() on the lower filesystem, and
lockdep can't tell that the two s_vfs_rename_mutexes are different. It
seems an annotation like the following is sufficient to fix this (it
does get rid of the lockdep trace in my simple tests); however I would
like to make sure I'm not misunderstanding the locking, hence the CC
list...

anon_inode_mkinode() sets inode->i_mode = S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR; This means
that (inode->i_mode & S_IFMT) == 0. This trips up some SELinux code that
needs to determine if a given inode is a regular file, a directory, etc.
The easiest solution is to just make sure that the anon_inode also sets
S_IFREG.
