When creating inode for symlink, the client used to send below
requests to fill it in:
* create+query_info+close (STATUS_STOPPED_ON_SYMLINK)
* create(+reparse_flag)+query_info+close (set file attrs)
* create+ioctl(get_reparse)+close (query reparse tag)
and then for every access to the symlink dentry, the ->link() method
would send another:
* create+ioctl(get_reparse)+close (parse symlink)
So, in order to improve:
(i) Get rid of unnecessary roundtrips and then resolve symlinks as
follows:
* create+query_info+close (STATUS_STOPPED_ON_SYMLINK +
parse symlink + get reparse tag)
* create(+reparse_flag)+query_info+close (set file attrs)
(ii) Set the resolved symlink target directly in inode->i_link and
use simple_get_link() for ->link() to simply return it.

Currently much of the smb1 code is built even when
CONFIG_CIFS_ALLOW_INSECURE_LEGACY is disabled.
Move cifssmb.c to only be compiled when insecure legacy is disabled,
and move various SMB1/CIFS helper functions to that ifdef. Some
functions that were not SMB1/CIFS specific needed to be moved out of
cifssmb.c
This shrinks cifs.ko by more than 10% which is good - but also will
help with the eventual movement of the legacy code to a distinct
module. Follow on patches can shrink the number of ifdefs by
code restructuring where smb1 code is wedged in functions that
should be calling dialect specific helper functions instead,
and also by moving some functions from file.c/dir.c/inode.c into
smb1 specific c files.

Various filesystem support the shutdown ioctl which is used by various
xfstests. The shutdown ioctl sets a flag on the superblock which
prevents open, unlink, symlink, hardlink, rmdir, create etc.
on the file system until unmount and remounted. The two flags supported
in this patch are:
FSOP_GOING_FLAGS_LOGFLUSH and FSOP_GOING_FLAGS_NOLOGFLUSH
which require very little other than blocking new operations (since
we do not cache writes to metadata on the client with cifs.ko).
FSOP_GOING_FLAGS_DEFAULT is not supported yet, but could be added in
the future but would need to call syncfs or equivalent to write out
pending data on the mount.

build_path_from_dentry() open-codes dentry_path_raw(). The reason
we can't use dentry_path_raw() in there (and postprocess the
result as needed) is that the callers of build_path_from_dentry()
expect that the object to be freed on cleanup and the string to
be used are at the same address. That's painful, since the path
is naturally built end-to-beginning - we start at the leaf and
go through the ancestors, accumulating the pathname.
Life would be easier if we left the buffer allocation to callers.
It wouldn't be exact-sized buffer, but none of the callers keep
the result for long - it's always freed before the caller returns.
So there's no need to do exact-sized allocation; better use
__getname()/__putname(), same as we do for pathname arguments
of syscalls. What's more, there's no need to do allocation under
spinlocks, so GFP_ATOMIC is not needed.
Next patch will replace the open-coded dentry_path_raw() (in
build_path_from_dentry_optional_prefix()) with calling the real
thing. This patch only introduces wrappers for allocating/freeing
the buffers and switches to new calling conventions:
build_path_from_dentry(dentry, buf)
expects buf to be address of a page-sized object or NULL,
return value is a pathname built inside that buffer on success,
ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) if buf is NULL and ERR_PTR(-ENAMETOOLONG) if
the pathname won't fit into page. Note that we don't need to
check for failure when allocating the buffer in the caller -
build_path_from_dentry() will do the right thing.

Extend some inode methods with an additional user namespace argument. A
filesystem that is aware of idmapped mounts will receive the user
namespace the mount has been marked with. This can be used for
additional permission checking and also to enable filesystems to
translate between uids and gids if they need to. We have implemented all
relevant helpers in earlier patches.
As requested we simply extend the exisiting inode method instead of
introducing new ones. This is a little more code churn but it's mostly
mechanical and doesnt't leave us with additional inode methods.

The read/write codepath is different than the rest as it is using
pages, io iterators and async calls. To deal with those we add a
server pointer in the cifs_writedata/cifs_readdata/cifs_io_parms
context struct and set it in:
- cifs_writepages (wdata)
- cifs_write_from_iter (wdata)
- cifs_readpages (rdata)
- cifs_send_async_read (rdata)
The [rw]data->server pointer is eventually copied to
cifs_io_parms->server to pass it down to SMB2_read/SMB2_write.
If SMB2_read/SMB2_write is called from a different place that doesn't
set the server field it will pick a channel.
Some places do not pick a channel and just use ses->server or
cifs_ses_server(ses). All cifs_ses_server(ses) calls are in codepaths

new method: ->get_link(); replacement of ->follow_link(). The differences
are:
* inode and dentry are passed separately
* might be called both in RCU and non-RCU mode;
the former is indicated by passing it a NULL dentry.
* when called that way it isn't allowed to block
and should return ERR_PTR(-ECHILD) if it needs to be called
in non-RCU mode.
It's a flagday change - the old method is gone, all in-tree instances

a) instead of storing the symlink body (via nd_set_link()) and returning
an opaque pointer later passed to ->put_link(), ->follow_link() _stores_
that opaque pointer (into void * passed by address by caller) and returns
the symlink body. Returning ERR_PTR() on error, NULL on jump (procfs magic
symlinks) and pointer to symlink body for normal symlinks. Stored pointer
is ignored in all cases except the last one.
Storing NULL for opaque pointer (or not storing it at all) means no call
of ->put_link().
b) the body used to be passed to ->put_link() implicitly (via nameidata).
Now only the opaque pointer is. In the cases when we used the symlink body
to free stuff, ->follow_link() now should store it as opaque pointer in addition
to returning it.

This is a bigger patch, but its size is mostly due to
a single change for how we check for remapping illegal characters
in file names - a lot of repeated, small changes to
the way callers request converting file names.
The final patch in the series does the following:
1) changes default behavior for cifs to be more intuitive.
Currently we do not map by default to seven reserved characters,
ie those valid in POSIX but not in NTFS/CIFS/SMB3/Windows,
unless a mount option (mapchars) is specified. Change this
to by default always map and map using the SFM maping
(like the Mac uses) unless the server negotiates the CIFS Unix
Extensions (like Samba does when mounting with the cifs protocol)
when the remapping of the characters is unnecessary. This should
help SMB3 mounts in particular since Samba will likely be
able to implement this mapping with its new "vfs_fruit" module
as it will be doing for the Mac.
2) if the user specifies the existing "mapchars" mount option then
use the "SFU" (Microsoft Services for Unix, SUA) style mapping of
the seven characters instead.
3) if the user specifies "nomapposix" then disable SFM/MAC style mapping
(so no character remapping would be used unless the user specifies
"mapchars" on mount as well, as above).
4) change all the places in the code that check for the superblock
flag on the mount which is set by mapchars and passed in on all
path based operation and change it to use a small function call
instead to set the mapping type properly (and check for the
mapping type in the cifs unicode functions)
