Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] SUNRPC: split client creation routine into setup and registration

This helper moves all "registration" code to the new rpc_client_register()
helper.
This helper will be used later in the series to synchronize against PipeFS
MOUNT/UMOUNT events.

Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] SUNRPC: fix races on PipeFS MOUNT notifications

Below are races, when RPC client can be created without PiepFS dentries

CPU#0 CPU#1
----------------------------- -----------------------------
rpc_new_client rpc_fill_super
rpc_setup_pipedir
mutex_lock(&sn->pipefs_sb_lock)
rpc_get_sb_net == NULL
(no per-net PipeFS superblock)
sn->pipefs_sb = sb;
notifier_call_chain(MOUNT)
(client is not in the list)
rpc_register_client
(client without pipes dentries)

To fix this patch:
1) makes PipeFS mount notification call with pipefs_sb_lock being held.
2) releases pipefs_sb_lock on new SUNRPC client creation only after
registration.

Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] SUNRPC: PipeFS MOUNT notification optimization for dying clients

Not need to create pipes for dying client. So just skip them.

Note: we can safely dereference the client structure, because notification
caller is holding sn->pipefs_sb_lock.

To fix this, this patch does the following:

1) Calls RPC_PIPEFS_UMOUNT notification with sn->pipefs_sb_lock being held.
2) Removes SUNRPC client from the list AFTER pipes destroying.
3) Doesn't hold RPC client on notification: if client in the list, then it
can't be destroyed while sn->pipefs_sb_lock in hold by notification caller.

Hi Stanislav,

This isn't going to apply to the stable kernels without the cleanup
patch. Could you please reorganise this patch series so that the cleanup
comes last.

Thanks,
Trond
