The kernel is now being compiled with -Wmissing-prototypes. Most of our
test stub functions had no prototype, and failed to compile. Since they
don't need to be visible anywhere else, just make them all static.

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.

In ZFSOnLinux, our sources and build system are self contained such that
we do not need to make changes to the Linux kernel sources. Reiser4 on
the other hand exists solely as a kernel tree patch and opts to make
changes to the kernel rather than adapt to it. After Linux 4.1 made a
VFS change that replaced new_sync_read with do_sync_read, Reiser4's
maintainer decided to modify the kernel VFS to export the old function.
This caused our autotools check to misidentify the kernel API as
predating Linux 4.1 on kernels that have been patched with Reiser4
support, which breaks our build.
Reiser4 really should be patched to stop doing this, but lets modify our
check to be more strict to help the affected users of both filesystems.
Also, we were not checking the types of arguments and return value of
new_sync_read() and new_sync_write() . Lets fix that too.

Commit 933ec99 removes read and write from f_op because the vfs layer will
select iter_write or aio_write automatically. However, for Linux <= 4.0,
loop_set_fd will actually check f_op->write and set read-only if not exists.
This patch add them back and use the generic do_sync_{read,write} for
aio_{read,write} and new_sync_{read,write} for {read,write}_iter.

The .write/.read file operations callbacks can be retired since
support for .read_iter/.write_iter and .aio_read/.aio_write has
been added. The vfs_write()/vfs_read() entry functions will
select the correct interface for the kernel. This is desirable
because all VFS write/read operations now rely on common code.
This change also add the generic write checks to make sure that
ulimits are enforced correctly on write.

Linux 3.15 commit torvalds/linux@293bc98 introduced two new methods.
The ->read_iter() and ->write_iter() methods were designed to replace
the ->aio_read() and ->aio_write() interfaces. Both interfaces were
preserved for several kernel releases in order to migrate all existing
consumers to the new interfaces. But as of Linux 4.1 the legacy
interface has been retired and the ZFS code must be updated to use
the new interfaces.
