8a9d2191e9 nilfs2: operations for the_nilfs core object
This adds functions on the_nilfs object, which keeps shared resources and
states among a read/write mount and snapshots mounts going individually.

the_nilfs is allocated per block device; it is created when user first
mount a snapshot or a read/write mount on the device, then it is reused
for successive mounts.  It will be freed when all mount instances on the
device are detached.

a17564f58b nilfs2: disk address translator
This adds the disk address translation file (DAT) whose primary function
is to convert virtual disk block numbers to actual disk block numbers.

The virtual block numbers of NILFS are associated with checkpoint
generation numbers, and this file also provides functions to manage the
lifetime information of each virtual block number.

0bd49f9446 nilfs2: buffer and page operations
This adds common routines for buffer/page operations used in B-tree
node caches, meta data files, or segment constructor (log writer).

NILFS uses copy functions for buffers and pages due to the following
reasons:

 1) Relocation required for COW
    Since NILFS changes address of on-disk blocks, moving buffers
    in page cache is needed for the buffers which are not addressed
    by a file offset.  If buffer size is smaller than page size,
    this involves partial copy of pages.

 2) Freezing mmapped pages
    NILFS calculates checksums for each log to ensure its validity.
    If page data changes after the checksum calculation, this validity
    check will not work correctly.  To avoid this failure for mmaped
    pages, NILFS freezes their data by copying.

 3) Copy-on-write for DAT pages
    NILFS makes clones of DAT page caches in a copy-on-write manner
    during GC processes, and this ensures atomicity and consistency
    of the DAT in the transient state.

In addition, NILFS uses two obsolete functions, nilfs_mark_buffer_dirty()
and nilfs_clear_page_dirty() respectively.

* nilfs_mark_buffer_dirty() was required to avoid NULL pointer
  dereference faults:

  Since the page cache of B-tree node pages or data page cache of pseudo
  inodes does not have a valid mapping->host, calling mark_buffer_dirty()
  for their buffers causes the fault; it calls __mark_inode_dirty(NULL)
  through __set_page_dirty().

* nilfs_clear_page_dirty() was needed in the two cases:

 1) For B-tree node pages and data pages of the dat/gcdat, NILFS2 clears
    page dirty flags when it copies back pages from the cloned cache
    (gcdat->{i_mapping,i_btnode_cache}) to its original cache
    (dat->{i_mapping,i_btnode_cache}).

 2) Some B-tree operations like insertion or deletion may dispose buffers
    in dirty state, and this needs to cancel the dirty state of their
    pages.  clear_page_dirty_for_io() caused faults because it does not
    clear the dirty tag on the page cache.

17c76b0104 nilfs2: B-tree based block mapping
This adds declarations and functions of NILFS2 B-tree.

Two variants are integrated in the NILFS2 B-tree.  The B-tree for the most
files points to the child nodes or data blocks with virtual block
addresses, whereas the B-tree of the DAT uses actual block addresses.

bdb265eae0 nilfs2: integrated block mapping
This adds structures and operations for the block mapping (bmap for
short).  NILFS2 uses direct mappings for short files or B-tree based
mappings for longer files.

Every on-disk data block is held with inodes and managed through this
block mapping.  The nilfs_bmap structure and a set of functions here
provide this capability to the NILFS2 inode.

65b4643d3b nilfs2: add inode and other major structures
This adds the following common structures of the NILFS2 file system.

* nilfs_inode_info structure:
  gives on-memory inode.

* nilfs_sb_info structure:
  keeps per-mount state and a special inode for the ifile.
  This structure is attached to the super_block structure.

* the_nilfs structure:
  keeps shared state and locks among a read/write mount and snapshot
  mounts.  This keeps special inodes for the sufile, cpfile, dat, and
  another dat inode used during GC (gcdat).  This also has a hash table
  of dummy inodes to cache disk blocks during GC (gcinodes).

* nilfs_transaction_info structure:
  keeps per task state while nilfs is writing logs or doing indivisible
  inode or namespace operations.  This structure is used to identify
  context during log making and store nest level of the lock which
  ensures atomicity of file system operations.
