Remove code that used to have something to do with initrd
but has been unused for a long time.

97cc1025b1 GFS2: Kill two daemons with one patch
This patch removes the two daemons, gfs2_scand and gfs2_glockd
and replaces them with a shrinker which is called from the VM.

The net result is that GFS2 responds better when there is memory
pressure, since it shrinks the glock cache at the same rate
as the VFS shrinks the dcache and icache. There are no longer
any time based criteria for shrinking glocks, they are kept
until such time as the VM asks for more memory and then we
demote just as many glocks as required.

There are potential future changes to this code, including the
possibility of sorting the glocks which are to be written back
into inode number order, to get a better I/O ordering. It would
be very useful to have an elevator based workqueue implementation
for this, as that would automatically deal with the read I/O cases
at the same time.

This patch is my answer to Andrew Morton's remark, made during
the initial review of GFS2, asking why GFS2 needs so many kernel
threads, the answer being that it doesn't :-) This patch is a
net loss of about 200 lines of code.

a447c09324 vfs: Use const for kernel parser table
This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser
tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in
all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst
exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble.

This was posted for review some time ago and I believe its been in -mm
since then.

9b8df98fc8 GFS2: Fix metafs mounts
This patch is intended to fix the issues reported in bz #457798. Instead
of having the metafs as a separate filesystem, it becomes a second root
of gfs2. As a result it will appear as type gfs2 in /proc/mounts, but it
is still possible (for backwards compatibility purposes) to mount it as
type gfs2meta. A new mount flag "meta" is introduced so that its possible
to tell the two cases apart in /proc/mounts.

As a result it becomes possible to mount type gfs2 with -o meta and
get the same result as mounting type gfs2meta. So it is possible to
mount just the metafs on its own. Currently if you do this, its then
impossible to mount the "normal" root of the gfs2 filesystem without
first unmounting the metafs root. I'm not sure if thats a feature or
a bug :-)

Either way, this is a great improvement on the previous scheme and I've
verified that it works ok with bind mounts on both the "normal" root
and the metafs root in various combinations.

There were also a bunch of functions in super.c which didn't belong there,
so this moves them into ops_fstype.c where they can be static. Hopefully
the mount/umount sequence is now more obvious as a result.

9a5ad13856 [GFS2] Add NULL entry to token table
match_token() was returning garbage data instead of a fail value. This data
happened to match a valid option id for an option that required an argument (in
this case, lockproto=%s) For match_token() to correctly fail if the option
doesn't match any of the tokens, the token table must end with a NULL entry.
This patch adds the NULL entry.

This patch is for bugzilla bug #245663.  This crosswrites a fix from
gfs1 (bz #210369) so that the mount options are reset properly upon
remount.  This was tested on system trin-10.

cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

7d308590ae [GFS2] Export lm_interface to kernel headers
lm_interface.h has a few out of the tree clients such as GFS1
and userland tools.

Right now, these clients keeps a copy of the file in their build tree
that can go out of sync.

Move lm_interface.h to include/linux, export it to userland and
clean up fs/gfs2 to use the new location.

e9fc2aa091 [GFS2] Update copyright, tidy up incore.h
As per comments from Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@linux01.gwdg.de> this
updates the copyright message to say "version" in full rather than
"v.2". Also incore.h has been updated to remove forward structure
declarations which are not required.

The gfs2_quota_lvb structure has now had endianess annotations added
to it. Also quota.c has been updated so that we now store the
lvb data locally in endian independant format to avoid needing
a structure in host endianess too. As a result the endianess
conversions are done as required at various points and thus the
conversion routines in lvb.[ch] are no longer required. I've
moved the one remaining constant in lvb.h thats used into lm.h
and removed the unused lvb.[ch].

I have not changed the HIF_ constants. That is left to a later patch
which I hope will unify the gh_flags and gh_iflags fields of the
struct gfs2_holder.

5c676f6d35 [GFS2] Macros removal in gfs2.h
As suggested by Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>.

The DIV_RU macro is renamed DIV_ROUND_UP and and moved to kernel.h
The other macros are gone from gfs2.h as (although not requested
by Pekka Enberg) are a number of included header file which are now
included individually. The inode number comparison function is
now an inline function.

The DT2IF and IF2DT may be addressed in a future patch.
