I've ran "make oldconfig" and "make mrproper" before running "make".
I'm kind of desperate to get this working already after ironing out minor issues preventing me from compiling it entirely.

Jian found that when he ran fsx on a 32 bit arch with a large wsize the
process and one of the bdi writeback kthreads would sometimes deadlock
with a stack trace like this:

Each task would kmap part of its address array before getting stuck, but
not enough to actually issue the write.

This patch fixes this by serializing the marshal_iov operations for
async reads and writes. The idea here is to ensure that cifs
aggressively tries to populate a request before attempting to fulfill
another one. As soon as all of the pages are kmapped for a request, then
we can unlock and allow another one to proceed.

There's no need to do this serialization on non-CONFIG_HIGHMEM arches
however, so optimize all of this out when CONFIG_HIGHMEM isn't set.

commit 5cf02d0 upstream.

We've had some reports of a deadlock where rpciod ends up with a stack

rpciod is trying to allocate memory for a new socket to talk to the
server. The VM ends up calling ->releasepage to get more memory, and it
tries to do a blocking commit. That commit can't succeed however without
a connected socket, so we deadlock.

Fix this by setting PF_FSTRANS on the workqueue task prior to doing the
socket allocation, and having nfs_release_page check for that flag when
deciding whether to do a commit call. Also, set PF_FSTRANS
unconditionally in rpc_async_schedule since that function can also do
allocations sometimes.
