Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] NFS: ALLOCATE and DEALLOCATE improvemnts

These patches make a few tweaks that improve the performance of ALLOCATE
and DEALLOCATE requests. The first patch attempts to update cache
information after a (DE)ALLOCATE call, rather than clearing the cache and
forcing the client to re-read the file later. The second patch changes
when we lock the i_mutex to give NFS v4.0 and v4.1 a chance to exit without
taking a lock.

Comments are appreciated!

Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] NFS: Don't zap caches on fallocate()

This patch adds a GETATTR to the end of ALLOCATE and DEALLOCATE
operations so we can set the updated inode size and change attribute
directly. DEALLOCATE will still need to release pagecache pages, so
nfs42_proc_deallocate() now calls truncate_pagecache_range() before
contacting the server.

Subject: [PATCH v4 2/2] NFS: Reduce time spent holding the i_mutex during fallocate()

At the very least, we should not be taking the i_mutex until after
checking if the server even supports ALLOCATE or DEALLOCATE, allowing
v4.0 or v4.1 to exit without potentially waiting on a lock.
