Considering the nature of per mm stats, it's the shared object among
threads and can be a cache-miss point in the page fault path.
This patch adds per-thread cache for mm_counter. RSS value will be
counted into a struct in task_struct and synchronized with mm's one at
events.
Now, in this patch, the event is the number of calls to handle_mm_fault.
Per-thread value is added to mm at each 64 calls.
rough estimation with small benchmark on parallel thread (2threads) shows
[before]
4.5 cache-miss/faults
[after]
4.0 cache-miss/faults
Anyway, the most contended object is mmap_sem if the number of threads grows.

Presently, per-mm statistics counter is defined by macro in sched.h
This patch modifies it to
- defined in mm.h as inlinf functions
- use array instead of macro's name creation.
This patch is for reducing patch size in future patch to modify
implementation of per-mm counter.

Rename for_each_bit to for_each_set_bit in the kernel source tree. To
permit for_each_clear_bit(), should that ever be added.
The patch includes a macro to map the old for_each_bit() onto the new
for_each_set_bit(). This is a (very) temporary thing to ease the migration.

This is needed for supporting multiple mount points.
We can find out the device names to be used with mount by checking
/sys/devices/virtio-pci/virtio*/device file
if the device file have value 9 then the specific virtio device can
be used for mounting.
ex:
#cat /sys/devices/virtio-pci/virtio1/device
9
now we can mount using
# mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio virtio1 /mnt/

Now that we have correct COMMIT semantics in writeback_single_inode, we can
reduce and simplify nfs_wb_all(). Also replace nfs_wb_nocommit() with a
call to filemap_write_and_wait(), which doesn't need to hold the
inode->i_mutex.
With that done, we can eliminate nfs_write_mapping() altogether.

Similar to the fsync issue fixed a while ago in commit
2daea67e96 we need to write for data to
actually hit the disk before writing out the metadata to guarantee
data integrity for filesystems that modify the inode in the data I/O
completion path. Currently XFS and NFS handle this manually, and AFS
has a write_inode method that does nothing but waiting for data, while
others are possibly missing out on this.
Fortunately this change has a lot less impact than the fsync change
as none of the write_inode methods starts data writeout of any form
by itself.
