Linux 3.7 compat, __clear_close_on_exec() removed

Commit torvalds/linux@b8318b0 moved the __clear_close_on_exec()
function out of include/linux/fdtable.h and in to fs/file.c
making it unavailable to the SPL.

Now as it turns out we only used this function to tear down
some test infrastructure for the vn_getf()/vn_releasef() SPLAT
regression tests.  Rather than implement even more autoconf
compatibilty code to handle this we just remove the test case.
This also allows us to drop three existing autoconf tests.

This does mean the SPLAT tests will no longer verify these
functions but historically they have never been a problem.
And if we feel we absolutely need this test coverage I'm
sure a more portable version of the test case could be added.

Closes #183
Make kstat.ks_update() callback atomic

Move the kstat ks_update() callback under the ks_lock.  This
enables dynamically sized kstats without modification to the
kstat API.

  * Create a kstat with the KSTAT_FLAG_VIRTUAL flag.
  * Register a ->ks_update() callback which does:
    o Frees any existing ks_data buffer.
    o Set ks_data_size to the kstat array size.
    o Set ks_data to an allocated buffer of size ks_data_size
    o Populate the array of buffers with the required data.

The buffer allocated in the ks_update() callback is guaranteed
to remain allocated and valid while the proc sequence handler
iterates over the buffer.  The lock will not be dropped until
kstat_seq_stop() function is run making it safe for concurrent
access.  To allow the ks_update() callback to perform memory
allocations the lock was changed to a mutex.

Add KSTAT_TYPE_TXG type

Add a new kstat type for tracking useful statistics about a TXG.
The new KSTAT_TYPE_TXG type can be used to tracks the following
statistics per-txg.

  txg          - Unique txg number
  state        - State (O)pen/(Q)uiescing/(S)yncing/(C)ommitted
  birth;       - Creation time
  nread        - Bytes read
  nwritten;    - Bytes written
  reads        - IOPs read
  writes       - IOPs write
  open_time;   - Length in nanoseconds the txg was open
  quiesce_time - Length in nanoseconds the txg was quiescing
  sync_time;   - Length in nanoseconds the txg was syncing

Condition variable reference counts

Reference count every entry and exit from the condition variable
functions: cv_wait(), cv_wait_timeout(), cv_signal(), cv_broadcast().

This allows us to safely block in cv_destroy() until all consumers
have been scheduled and are no longer accessing the condition
variable memory.

In addition poison the magic value at the start of cv_destroy() to
ensure there are never any new callers after cv_destroy() is called.
The consumer is responsible for ensuring this never occurs.

splat: Fix log buffer locking

The Fedora 3.6 debug kernel identified the following issue where
we call copy_to_user() under a spin lock().  This used to be safe
in older kernels but no longer appears to be true so the spin
lock was changed to a mutex.  None of this code is performance
critical so allowing the process to sleep is harmless.

Improved vmem cached deadlock detection

The entire goal of performing the slab allocations asynchronously
is to be able to detect when a vmalloc() deadlocks.  In this case,
and only this case, do we want to start allocating emergency objects.
The trick here is to minimize false positives because the overhead
of tracking emergency objects is far higher than normal slab objects.

With that goal in mind the code was reworked to be less sensitive
to slow allocations by increasing the wait time.  Once a cache is
is marked deadlocked all subsequent allocations which can not be
satisfied with existing cache objects will immediately allocate new
emergency objects.  This behavior persists until the asynchronous
allocation completes and clears the deadlocked flag.

The result of these tweaks is that far fewer emergency objects
get created which is important because this minimizes the cost of
releasing them latter in kmem_cache_free().

Track emergency object in rbtree

In the initial implementation emergency objects were tracked on a
per-cache list.  The assumption was that under normal operation we
would never allocate more than a handful of these objects.  So the
cost of walking the list during free was expected to be negligible.

However real world usage has shown that emergency objects tend to
be allocated in batches.  A deadlock will be detected and several
thousand emergency objects will be allocated before the original
blocked slab allocation can complete.

Therefore the original list has been replaced by a red black tree
which is sorted by the memory address of each allocated object.
This bounds the worst case insertion and removal time to O(log n)
which minimize contention on the assoicated spin lock.

Optimize spl_kmem_cache_free()

Because only virtual slabs may have emergency objects and these
objects are guaranteed to have physical addresses.  It can be
easily determined if the passed object is a virtual slab object
or an emergency object.  This allows us to completely optimize
the emergency object free case out of the common free path.

Never spin in kmem_cache_alloc()

If we are reaping from the cache and a concurrent allocation
occurs then the caller must block until the reaping is complete.
This is signaled by the clearing of the KMC_BIT_REAPING bit.

Otherwise the caller will be in a tight loop which takes and
releases the skc->skc_cache lock.  When there are multiple
concurrent callers the system will thrash on the lock and
appear to lock up.

Merge branch 'kmem-cache-optimization'

This branch contains kmem cache optimizations designed to resolve
the lockups reported in zfsonlinux/zfs#922.  The lockups were
largely the result of spin lock contention in the slab under low
memory conditions.  Fundamentally, these changes are all designed
to minimize that contention though a variety of methods.

  * Track emergency objects in rbtree
  * Optimize spl_kmem_cache_free()
