0935db7477 nilfs2: use list_splice_tail or list_splice_tail_init
This applies list_splice_tail (or list_splice_tail_init) operation
instead of list_splice (or list_splice_init, respectively) to append a
new list to tail of an existing list.

050b4142c9 nilfs2: apply readahead for recovery on mount
This inserts readahead in the recovery code.  The readahead request is
issued per segment while searching the latest super root block.

This will shorten mount time after unclean unmount.  A measurement
shows the recovery time was reduced by more than 60 percent:

 e.g. real  0m11.586s -> 0m3.918s  (x 2.96)

fd66c0d5c3 nilfs2: hide nilfs_mdt_clear calls in nilfs_mdt_destroy
This will hide a function call of nilfs_mdt_clear() in
nilfs_mdt_destroy().

This ensures nilfs_mdt_destroy() to do cleanup jobs included in
nilfs_mdt_clear().

b5696e5e0d nilfs2: fix format string compile warning (ino_t)
Unlike on most other architectures ino_t is an unsigned int on s390.
So add an explicit cast to avoid this compile warning:

fs/nilfs2/recovery.c: In function 'recover_dsync_blocks':
fs/nilfs2/recovery.c:555: warning: format '%lu' expects type 'long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type 'ino_t'

654137dd46 nilfs2: remove header file for segment list operations
This will eliminate obsolete list operations of nilfs_segment_entry
structure which has been used to handle mutiple segment numbers.

The patch ("nilfs2: remove list of freeing segments") removed use of
the structure from the segment constructor code, and this patch
simplifies the remaining code by integrating it into recovery.c.

85c2a74fab nilfs2: fix possible recovery failure due to block creation without writer
Some function calls in nilfs_prepare_segment_for_recovery() may fail
because they can create blocks on meta data files without configuring
a writable FS-instance.  Concretely, nilfs_mdt_create_block() routine
of meta data files will fail in that case.

This fixes the problem by temporarily attaching a writable FS-instace
during the function is called.

c85399c2da nilfs2: fix possible mismatch of sufile counters on recovery
On-disk counters ndirtysegs and ncleansegs of sufile, can go wrong
after roll-forward recovery because
nilfs_prepare_segment_for_recovery() function marks segments dirty
without adjusting value of these counters.

This fixes the problem by adding a function to sufile which does the
operation adjusting the counters, and by letting the recovery function
use it.

e339ad31f5 nilfs2: introduce secondary super block
The former versions didn't have extra super blocks.  This improves the
weak point by introducing another super block at unused region in tail of
the partition.

This doesn't break disk format compatibility; older versions just ingore
the secondary super block, and new versions just recover it if it doesn't
exist.  The partition created by an old mkfs may not have unused region,
but in that case, the secondary super block will not be added.

This doesn't make more redundant copies of the super block; it is a future
work.

cece552074 nilfs2: simplify handling of active state of segments
will reduce some lines of segment constructor.  Previously, the state was
complexly controlled through a list of segments in order to keep
consistency in meta data of usage state of segments.  Instead, this
presents ``calculated'' active flags to userland cleaner program and stop
maintaining its real flag on disk.

Only by this fake flag, the cleaner cannot exactly know if each segment is
reclaimable or not.  However, the recent extension of nilfs_sustat ioctl
struct (nilfs2-extend-nilfs_sustat-ioctl-struct.patch) can prevent the
cleaner from reclaiming in-use segment wrongly.

So, now I can apply this for simplification.

1f5abe7e7d nilfs2: replace BUG_ON and BUG calls triggerable from ioctl
Pekka Enberg advised me:
> It would be nice if BUG(), BUG_ON(), and panic() calls would be
> converted to proper error handling using WARN_ON() calls. The BUG()
> call in nilfs_cpfile_delete_checkpoints(), for example, looks to be
> triggerable from user-space via the ioctl() system call.

This will follow the comment and keep them to a minimum.

2c2e52fc4f nilfs2: extend nilfs_sustat ioctl struct
This adds a new argument to the nilfs_sustat structure.

The extended field allows to delete volatile active state of segments,
which was needed to protect freshly-created segments from garbage
collection but has confused code dealing with segments.  This
extension alleviates the mess and gives room for further
simplifications.

The volatile active flag is not persistent, so it's eliminable on this
occasion without affecting compatibility other than the ioctl change.

0f3e1c7f23 nilfs2: recovery functions
This adds recovery function on mount.

Usually the recovery is achieved by just finding the latest super
root.  When logs without checkpoints were appended for data sync
operations after the latest super root, the recovery function will
perform roll forwarding and reconstruct new log(s) with a super root.
