To prevent taskq_member holding tq_lock and doing linear search, thus causing
contention. We store the taskq pointer to which the thread belongs in tsd.
This way taskq_member will not need to touch tq_lock, and tsd has per slot
spinlock. So the contention should be reduced greatly.

In b4ad50a, we abandoned memalloc_noio_save in favor of spl_fstrans_mark
because earlier kernel with it doesn't turn off __GFP_FS. However, for newer
kernel, we would prefer PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO because it would work for allocation
in kernel which we cannot control otherwise. So in this patch, we turn on both
PF_FSTRANS and PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO in spl_fstrans_mark.

If a thread is holding mutex when doing cv_destroy, it might end up waiting a
thread in cv_wait. The waiter would wake up trying to aquire the same mutex
and cause deadlock.
We solve this by move the mutex_enter to the bottom of cv_wait, so that
the waiter will release the cv first, allowing cv_destroy to succeed and have
a chance to free the mutex.
This would create race condition on the cv_mutex. We use xchg to set and check
it to ensure we won't be harmed by the race. This would result in the cv_mutex
debugging becomes best-effort.
Also, the change reveals a race, which was unlikely before, where we call
mutex_destroy while test threads are still holding the mutex. We use
kthread_stop to make sure the threads are exit before mutex_destroy.

For earlier versions of the kernel with memalloc_noio_save, it only turns
off __GFP_IO but leaves __GFP_FS untouched during direct reclaim. This
would cause threads to direct reclaim into ZFS and cause deadlock.
Instead, we should stick to using spl_fstrans_mark. Since we would
explicitly turn off both __GFP_IO and __GFP_FS before allocation, it
will work on every version of the kernel.
This impacts kernel versions 3.9-3.17, see upstream kernel commit

This patch provides 2 new kstats to display task queues:
/proc/spl/taskqs-all - Display all task queues
/proc/spl/taskqs - Display only "active" task queues
A task queue is considered to be "active" if it currently has active
(running) threads or if any of its pending, priority, delay or waitq
lists are not empty.
If the task queue has running threads, displays each thread function's
address (symbolically, if possibly) and its argument.
If the task queue has a non-empty list of pending, priority or delayed
task queue entries (taskq_ent_t), displays each entry's thread function
address and arguemnt.
If the task queue has any waiters, displays each waiting task's pid.
Note: This patch also updates some comments in taskq.h which referred to
"taskq_t" when they should have referred to "taskq_ent_t".

When taskq_dispatch() calls taskq_thread_spawn() to create a new thread
for a taskq, linux lockdep warns of possible recursive locking. This is
a false positive.
One such call chain is as follows, when a taskq needs more threads:
taskq_dispatch->taskq_thread_spawn->taskq_dispatch
The initial taskq_dispatch() holds tq_lock on the taskq that needed more
worker threads. The later call into taskq_dispatch() takes
dynamic_taskq->tq_lock. Without subclassing, lockdep believes these
could potentially be the same lock and complains. A similar case occurs
when taskq_dispatch() then calls task_alloc().
This patch uses spin_lock_irqsave_nested() when taking tq_lock, with one
of two new lock subclasses:
subclass taskq
TQ_LOCK_DYNAMIC dynamic_taskq
TQ_LOCK_GENERAL any other

When running a kernel with CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y, lockdep reports possible
recursive locking in some cases and possible circular locking dependency
in others, within the SPL and ZFS modules.
When lockdep detects these conditions, it disables further lock analysis
for all locks. This causes /proc/lock_stats not to reflect full
information about lock contention, even in locks without dependency
issues.
This commit creates a new type of mutex, MUTEX_NOLOCKDEP. This mutex
type causes subsequent attempts to take or release those locks to be
wrapped in lockdep_off() and lockdep_on().
This commit also creates an RW_NOLOCKDEP type analagous to
MUTEX_NOLOCKDEP.
MUTEX_NOLOCKDEP and RW_NOLOCKDEP are also defined in zfs, in a commit to

Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov>
Issue #500
The ->journal_info pointer in the task_struct is reserved for use by
filesystems and because the kernel can have multiple file systems on the
same stack due to direct reclaim, each filesystem that touches
->journal_info in a callback function will save the value at the start
of its frame and restore it at the end of its frame. This allows us to
safely use ->journal_info to store a pointer to the taskq's struct in
taskq threads so that ZFS code paths can detect the presence of a taskq.
This could break if the ZFS code were to use taskq_member from the
context of direct reclaim. However, there are no such uses of it in that
manner, so this is safe.
This eliminates an O(N) list traversal under a spinlock with an O(1)
unlocked pointer comparison.

If a vnode is released asynchronously through areleasef(), it is
possible for the user process to reuse the file descriptor before
areleasef is called. When this happens, getf() will return a stale
reference, any operations in the kernel on that file descriptor will
fail (as it is closed) and the operations meant for that fd will
never occur from userspace's perspective.
We correct this by detecting this condition in getf(), doing a putf
on the old file handle, updating the file descriptor and proceeding
as if everything was fine. When the areleasef() is done, it will
harmlessly decrement the reference counter on the Illumos file handle.

Currently taskq_dispatch() will spawn new task with a condition that the caller
is also a member of the taskq. However, under this condition, it will still

For example when you do:
zfs send pp/fs0@001 | zfs recv pp/fs0_copy
This will easily deadlock before this patch.
Also, move the seq_task check from taskq_thread_spawn() to taskq_thread()

On Linux the meaning of a processes priority is inverted with respect
to illumos. High values on Linux indicate a _low_ priority while high
value on illumos indicate a _high_ priority.
In order to preserve the logical meaning of the minclsyspri and
maxclsyspri macros when they are used by the illumos wrapper functions
their values have been inverted. This way when changes are merged
from upstream illumos we won't need to remember to invert the macro.
It could also lead to confusion.
Note this change also reverts some of the priorities changes in prior
commit 62aa81a. The rational is as follows:

spl_system_taskq - May perform I/O for file backed VDEVs
spl_dynamic_taskq - New taskq threads should be spawned promptly
