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
that repo, for userspace builds.

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

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_kmem_cache - High priority may result in blocked memory allocs
spl_system_taskq - May perform I/O for file backed VDEVs
spl_dynamic_taskq - New taskq threads should be spawned promptly

Add a new defclsyspri macro which can be used to request the default
Linux scheduler priority. Neither the minclsyspri or maxclsyspri map
to the default Linux kernel thread priority. This makes it awkward to
create taskqs which run with the same priority as the rest of the kernel
threads on the system which can lead to performance issues.
All SPL callers which previously used minclsyspri or maxclsyspri have
been changed to use defclsyspri. The vast majority of callers were
part of the test suite which won't have an external impact. The few
places where it could impact performance the change was from maxclsyspri
to defclsyspri. This makes it more likely the process will be scheduled
which may help performance.
To facilitate further performance analysis the spl_taskq_thread_priority
module option has been added. When disabled (0) all newly created kernel
threads will use the default kernel thread priority. When enabled (1)
the specified taskq priority will be used. By default this value is
enabled (1).

Setting the TASKQ_DYNAMIC flag will create a taskq with dynamic
semantics. Initially only a single worker thread will be created
to service tasks dispatched to the queue. As additional threads
are needed they will be dynamically spawned up to the max number
specified by 'nthreads'. When the threads are no longer needed,
because the taskq is empty, they will automatically terminate.
Due to the low cost of creating and destroying threads under Linux
by default new threads and spawned and terminated aggressively.
There are two modules options which can be tuned to adjust this
behavior if needed.
* spl_taskq_thread_sequential - The number of sequential tasks,
without interruption, which needed to be handled by a worker
thread before a new worker thread is spawned. Default 4.
* spl_taskq_thread_dynamic - Provides the ability to completely
disable the use of dynamic taskqs on the system. This is provided
for the purposes of debugging and troubleshooting. Default 1
(enabled).
This behavior is fundamentally consistent with the dynamic taskq
implementation found in both illumos and FreeBSD.

Under Illumos taskq_wait() returns when there are no more tasks
in the queue. This behavior differs from ZoL and FreeBSD where
taskq_wait() returns when all the tasks in the queue at the
beginning of the taskq_wait() call are complete. New tasks
added whilst taskq_wait() is running will be ignored.
This difference in semantics makes it possible that new subtle
issues could be introduced when porting changes from Illumos.
To avoid that possibility the taskq_wait() function is being
updated such that it blocks until the queue in empty.
