Reduce the time required for ./configure to perform the needed
KABI checks by allowing kbuild to compile multiple test cases in
parallel. This was accomplished by splitting each test's source
code from the logic handling whether that code could be compiled
or not.
By introducing this split it's possible to minimize the number of
times kbuild needs to be invoked. As importantly, it means all of
the tests can be built in parallel. This does require a little extra
care since we expect some tests to fail, so the --keep-going (-k)
option must be provided otherwise some tests may not get compiled.
Furthermore, since a failure during the kbuild modpost phase will
result in an early exit; the final linking phase is limited to tests
which passed the initial compilation and produced an object file.
Once everything has been built the configure script proceeds as
previously. The only significant difference is that it now merely
needs to test for the existence of a .ko file to determine the
result of a given test. This vastly speeds up the entire process.
New test cases should use ZFS_LINUX_TEST_SRC to declare their test
source code and ZFS_LINUX_TEST_RESULT to check the result. All of
the existing kernel-*.m4 files have been updated accordingly, see
config/kernel-current-time.m4 for a basic example. The legacy
ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE macro has been kept to handle special cases
but it's use is not encouraged.

Issue #4665
Linux 4.5 added member "name" to xattr_handler. xattr_handler which matches to
whole name rather than prefix should use "name" instead of "prefix".
Otherwise, kernel will return with EINVAL when it tries to resolve handlers.
Also, we remove the strcmp checks when xattr_handler has name, because
xattr_resolve_name will do the check for us.

The registered xattr .list handler was simplified in the 4.5 kernel
to only perform a permission check. Given a dentry for the file it
must return a boolean indicating if the name is visible. This
differs slightly from the previous APIs which also required the
function to copy the name in to the provided list and return its
size. That is now all the responsibility of the caller.
This should be straight forward change to make to ZoL since we've
always required the caller to make the copy. However, this was
slightly complicated by the need to support 3 older APIs. Yes,
between 2.6.32 and 4.5 there are 4 versions of this interface!
Therefore, while the functional change in this patch is small it
includes significant cleanup to make the code understandable and
maintainable. These changes include:
- Improved configure checks for .list, .get, and .set interfaces.
- Interfaces checked from newest to oldest.
- Strict checking for each possible known interface.
- Configure fails when no known interface is available.
- HAVE_*_XATTR_LIST renamed HAVE_XATTR_LIST_* for consistency
with similar iops and fops configure checks.
- POSIX_ACL_XATTR_{DEFAULT|ACCESS} were removed forcing callers to
move to their replacements, XATTR_NAME_POSIX_ACL_{DEFAULT|ACCESS}.
Compatibility wrapper were added for old kernels.
- ZPL_XATTR_LIST_WRAPPER added which behaves the same as the existing
ZPL_XATTR_{GET|SET} WRAPPERs. Only the inode is guaranteed to be
a valid pointer, passing NULL for the 'list' and 'name' variables
is allowed and must be checked for. All .list functions were
updated to use the wrapper to aid readability.
- zpl_xattr_filldir() updated to use the .list function for its
permission check which is consistent with the updated Linux 4.5
interface. If a .list function is registered it should return 0
to indicate a name should be skipped, if there is no registered
function the name will be added.
- Additional documentation from xattr(7) describing the correct
behavior for each namespace was added before the relevant handlers.

We need inode_owner_or_capable() for ZFS file attributes in addition to
xattrs, so it should go into its own file. This moves it into its own
file and changes it to be more comprehensive. It will now fail if no
known good API is detected.

Issue #1691
This change adds support for Posix ACLs by storing them as an xattr
which is common practice for many Linux file systems. Since the
Posix ACL is stored as an xattr it will not overwrite any existing
ZFS/NFSv4 ACLs which may have been set. The Posix ACL will also
be non-functional on other platforms although it may be visible
as an xattr if that platform understands SA based xattrs.
By default Posix ACLs are disabled but they may be enabled with
the new 'aclmode=noacl|posixacl' property. Set the property to
'posixacl' to enable them. If ZFS/NFSv4 ACL support is ever added
an appropriate acltype will be added.
This change passes the POSIX Test Suite cleanly with the exception
of xacl/00.t test 45 which is incorrect for Linux (Ext4 fails too).

c38367c73f was meant to eliminate runtime
function pointer modifications in autotools checks because they were
prone to false negatives on kernels hardened by the PaX project.
Unfortunately, I missed the xattr_handler and super_block->s_bdi
autotools checks. Recent changes to PaX constified
xattr_handler->get/set, which lead me to discover this oversight.

Newer versions of gcc are getting smart enough to detect the sloppy
syntax used for the autoconf tests. It is now generating warnings
for unused/undeclared variables. Newer version of gcc even have
the -Wunused-but-set-variable option set by default. This isn't a
problem except when -Werror is set and they get promoted to an error.
In this case the autoconf test will return an incorrect result which
will result in a build failure latter on.
To handle this I'm tightening up many of the autoconf tests to
explicitly mark variables as unused to suppress the gcc warning.
Remember, all of the autoconf code can never actually be run we
just want to get a clean build error to detect which APIs are
available. Never using a variable is absolutely fine for this.
Closes#176
The xattr handler prototypes were sanitized with the idea being that
the same handlers could be used for multiple methods. The result of
this was the inode type was changes to a dentry, and both the get()
and set() hooks had a handler_flags argument added. The list()
callback was similiarly effected but no autoconf check was added
because we do not use the list() callback.
The const keyword was added to the 'struct xattr_handler' in the
generic Linux super_block structure. To handle this we define an
appropriate xattr_handler_t typedef which can be used. This was
the preferred solution because it keeps the code clean and readable.
