Down the road we want to eliminate the use of the global kernel lock entirely from the NFS client. To do this, we need to protect the fields in the nfs_inode structure adequately. Start by serializing updates to the "cache_validity" field. Note this change addresses an SMP hang found by njw@osdl.org, where processes deadlock because nfs_end_data_update and nfs_revalidate_mapping update the "cache_validity" field without proper serialization. Test plan: Millions of fsx ops on SMP clients. Run Nick Wilson's breaknfs program on large SMP clients.
