If it makes sense to copy up only metadata during copy up, do it.  This is
done for regular files which are not opened for WRITE.

Right now ->metacopy is set to 0 always.  Last patch in the series will
remove the hard coded statement and enable metacopy feature.

By default metadata only copy up is disabled.  Provide a mount option so
that users can choose one way or other.

Also provide a kernel config and module option to enable/disable metacopy
feature.

metacopy feature requires redirect_dir=on when upper is present.
Otherwise, it requires redirect_dir=follow atleast.

As of now, metacopy does not work with nfs_export=on.  So if both
metacopy=on and nfs_export=on then nfs_export is disabled.

ovl_inode->redirect is an inode property and should be initialized in
ovl_get_inode() only when we are adding a new inode to cache.  If inode is
already in cache, it is already initialized and we should not be touching
ovl_inode->redirect field.

As of now this is not a problem as redirects are used only for directories
which don't share inode.  But soon I want to use redirects for regular
files also and there it can become an issue.

Hence, move ->redirect initialization in ovl_get_inode().

This partially reverts commit c568d683.

Overlayfs files will now automatically get the correct locks, no need to
hack overlay support in VFS.

It is a partial revert, because it leaves the locks_inode() calls in place
and defines locks_inode() to file_inode().  We could revert those as well,
but it would be unnecessary code churn and it makes sense to document that
we are getting the inode for locking purposes.

Don't revert MS_NOREMOTELOCK yet since that has been part of the userspace
API for some time (though not in a useful way).  Will try to remove
internal flags later when the dust around the new mount API settles.

The underlying real file used by overlayfs still contains the overlay path.
This results in mnt_want_write_file() calls by the filesystem getting
freeze protection on the wrong inode (the overlayfs one instead of the real
one).

Fix by using file_inode(file)->i_sb instead of file->f_path.mnt->mnt_sb.

In the common case we can just use the real file cached in
file->private_data.  There are two exceptions:

1) File has been copied up since open: in this unlikely corner case just
use a throwaway real file for the operation.  If ever this becomes a
perfomance problem (very unlikely, since overlayfs has been doing most fine
without correctly handling this case at all), then we can deal with that by
updating the cached real file.

2) File's f_flags have changed since open: no need to reopen the cached
real file, we can just change the flags there as well.

Implement file operations on a regular overlay file.  The underlying file
is opened separately and cached in ->private_data.

It might be worth making an exception for such files when accounting in
nr_file to confirm to userspace expectations.  We are only adding a small
overhead (248bytes for the struct file) since the real inode and dentry are
pinned by overlayfs anyway.

This patch doesn't have any effect, since the vfs will use d_real() to find
the real underlying file to open.  The patch at the end of the series will
actually enable this functionality.

AV: make it use open_with_fake_path(), don't mess with override_creds

SzM: still need to mess with override_creds() until no fs uses
current_cred() in their open method.

Stacking file operations in overlay will store an extra open file for each
overlay file opened.

The overhead is just that of "struct file" which is about 256bytes, because
overlay already pins an extra dentry and inode when the file is open, which
add up to a much larger overhead.

For fear of breaking working setups, don't start accounting the extra file.

Following series for stacking overlay files depends on this mini series.

Merge branch 'for-ovl' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs into overlayfs-next

This gives us the open_with_fake_path() helper that is needed for stacked
open files in overlay and mmap in particular.

Only upper dir can be impure, but if we are in the middle of
iterating a lower real dir, dir could be copied up and marked
impure. We only want the impure cache if we started iterating
a real upper dir to begin with.
