We can't call smb_init() in CIFSGetDFSRefer() as cifs_reconnect_tcon()
may end up calling CIFSGetDFSRefer() again to get new DFS referrals
and thus causing an infinite recursion.

<title>smb3: fix unusable share after force unmount failure</title>

<id>urn:sha1:491eafce1a51c457701351a4bf40733799745314</id>
<content type='text'>
If user does forced unmount ("umount -f") while files are still open
on the share (as was seen in a Kubernetes example running on SMB3.1.1
mount) then we were marking the share as "TID_EXITING" in umount_begin()
which caused all subsequent operations (except write) to fail ... but
unfortunately when umount_begin() is called we do not know yet that
there are open files or active references on the share that would prevent
unmount from succeeding.  Kubernetes had example when they were doing
umount -f when files were open which caused the share to become
unusable until the files were closed (and the umount retried).

Fix this so that TID_EXITING is not set until we are about to send
the tree disconnect (not at the beginning of forced umounts in
umount_begin) so that if "umount -f" fails (due to open files or
references) the mount is still usable.

Pull cifs client updates from Steve French:
 "The largest subset of this is from David Howells et al: making the
  cifs/smb3 driver pass iov_iters down to the lowest layers, directly to
  the network transport rather than passing lists of pages around,
  helping multiple areas:

   - Pin user pages, thereby fixing the race between concurrent DIO read
     and fork, where the pages containing the DIO read buffer may end up
     belonging to the child process and not the parent - with the result
     that the parent might not see the retrieved data.

   - cifs shouldn't take refs on pages extracted from non-user-backed
     iterators (eg. KVEC). With these changes, cifs will apply the
     appropriate cleanup.

   - Making it easier to transition to using folios in cifs rather than
     pages by dealing with them through BVEC and XARRAY iterators.

   - Allowing cifs to use the new splice function

  The remainder are:

   - fixes for stable, including various fixes for uninitialized memory,
     wrong length field causing mount issue to very old servers,
     important directory lease fixes and reconnect fixes

   - cleanups (unused code removal, change one element array usage, and
     a change form strtobool to kstrtobool, and Kconfig cleanups)

   - SMBDIRECT (RDMA) fixes including iov_iter integration and UAF fixes

   - reconnect fixes

   - multichannel fixes, including improving channel allocation (to
     least used channel)

   - remove the last use of lock_page_killable by moving to
     folio_lock_killable"

<title>cifs: Change the I/O paths to use an iterator rather than a page list</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d08089f649a0cfb2099c8551ac47eef0cc23fdf2</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the cifs I/O paths hand lists of pages from the VM interface
routines at the top all the way through the intervening layers to the
socket interface at the bottom.

This is a problem, however, for interfacing with netfslib which passes an
iterator through to the -&gt;issue_read() method (and will pass an iterator
through to the -&gt;issue_write() method in future).  Netfslib takes over
bounce buffering for direct I/O, async I/O and encrypted content, so cifs
doesn't need to do that.  Netfslib also converts IOVEC-type iterators into
BVEC-type iterators if necessary.

Further, cifs needs foliating - and folios may come in a variety of sizes,
so a page list pointing to an array of heterogeneous pages may cause
problems in places such as where crypto is done.

Change the cifs I/O paths to hand iov_iter iterators all the way through
instead.

Notes:

 (1) Some old routines are #if'd out to be removed in a follow up patch so
     as to avoid confusing diff, thereby making the diff output easier to
     follow.  I've removed functions that don't overlap with anything
     added.

 (2) struct smb_rqst loses rq_pages, rq_offset, rq_npages, rq_pagesz and
     rq_tailsz which describe the pages forming the buffer; instead there's
     an rq_iter describing the source buffer and an rq_buffer which is used
     to hold the buffer for encryption.

 (3) struct cifs_readdata and cifs_writedata are similarly modified to
     smb_rqst.  The -&gt;read_into_pages() and -&gt;copy_into_pages() are then
     replaced with passing the iterator directly to the socket.

     The iterators are stored in these structs so that they are persistent
     and don't get deallocated when the function returns (unlike if they
     were stack variables).

 (4) Buffered writeback is overhauled, borrowing the code from the afs
     filesystem to gather up contiguous runs of folios.  The XARRAY-type
     iterator is then used to refer directly to the pagecache and can be
     passed to the socket to transmit data directly from there.

     This includes:

	cifs_extend_writeback()
	cifs_write_back_from_locked_folio()
	cifs_writepages_region()
	cifs_writepages()

 (5) Pages are converted to folios.

 (6) Direct I/O uses netfs_extract_user_iter() to create a BVEC-type
     iterator from an IOBUF/UBUF-type source iterator.

 (7) smb2_get_aead_req() uses netfs_extract_iter_to_sg() to extract page
     fragments from the iterator into the scatterlists that the crypto
     layer prefers.

 (8) smb2_init_transform_rq() attached pages to smb_rqst::rq_buffer, an
     xarray, to use as a bounce buffer for encryption.  An XARRAY-type
     iterator can then be used to pass the bounce buffer to lower layers.

<title>cifs: Convert struct fealist away from 1-element array</title>

<id>urn:sha1:398d5843c03261a2b68730f2f00643826bcec6ba</id>
<content type='text'>
The kernel is globally removing the ambiguous 0-length and 1-element
arrays in favor of flexible arrays, so that we can gain both compile-time
and run-time array bounds checking[1].

While struct fealist is defined as a "fake" flexible array (via a
1-element array), it is only used for examination of the first array
element. Walking the list is performed separately, so there is no reason
to treat the "list" member of struct fealist as anything other than a
single entry. Adjust the struct and code to match.

Additionally, struct fea uses the "name" member either as a dynamic
string, or is manually calculated from the start of the struct. Redefine
the member as a flexible array.

No machine code output differences are produced after these changes.

[1] For lots of details, see both:
    https://docs.kernel.org/process/deprecated.html#zero-length-and-one-element-arrays
