NFS client patches for Linux 2.6.7-rc3

The following set of patches fix known issues with the 2.6.7-rc3 NFS client code, and significantly enhance the support for NFSv4.

linux-2.6.7-01-write_hang.dif:

NFS: remove the WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE hack. It causes crashes.

linux-2.6.7-02-lock_owner_fixup.dif:

VFS,NFSv4: Fix locking code so that it uses current->tgid to determine whether or not locks are the same. Remove current->files lockowner

linux-2.6.7-03-lock_fix_cleanup.dif:

NFS: Ensure that we always clean up any resulting locks if we interrupt a process in the middle of a locking RPC call. Clean up locking code

linux-2.6.7-04-setclientid.dif:

NFSv4: Prime SETCLIENTID call for the delegation callback info.

linux-2.6.7-05-rpc_workqueue.dif:

RPC: Convert rpciod into a work queue for greater flexibility.

linux-2.6.7-06-rpc_queue_lock.dif:

RPC: Remove the rpc_queue_lock global spinlock. Replace it with per-rpc_queue spinlocks

linux-2.6.7-07-file_ctx.dif:

NFSv2/v3/v4: Place NFS nfs_page shared data into a single structure that hangs off filp->private_data. As a side effect, this also cleans up the NFSv4 private file state info.

linux-2.6.7-08-file_ctx2.dif:

NFSv4: More cleanups of the NFSv4 state.

linux-2.6.7-09-delegation_management.dif:

NFSv4: Basic code for managing delegation state.

linux-2.6.7-10-callback_server.dif:

NFSv4: Delegation callback server.

linux-2.6.7-11-open_cleanup1.dif:

NFSv4: XDR cleanups in preparation for delegations.

linux-2.6.7-12-open_cleanup2.dif:

NFSv4: XDR cleanups in preparation for delegations.

linux-2.6.7-13-delegation_recall.dif:

NFSv4: Delegation recall code

linux-2.6.7-14-delegation_recall2.dif:

NFSv4: More delegation recall code

linux-2.6.7-15-delegation_open.dif:

NFSv4: Delegated open.

linux-2.6.7-16-delegation_reclaim.dif:

NFSv4: Delegation reclaim in case of server reboot.

linux-2.6.7-17-delegation_cache.dif:

NFSv4: More aggressive caching if we have a delegation.

linux-2.6.7-NFS4_ALL.dif:

All of the above patches rolled into one.
