Many of the filesystems that call the generic exportfs helpers do not
select the EXPORTFS config.

Move generic_encode_ino32_fh() to libfs.c, same as generic_fh_to_*()
to avoid having to fix all those config dependencies.

<title>exportfs: support encoding non-decodeable file handles by default</title>

<id>urn:sha1:64343119d7b80b4ee9ba7703390681608a17f2c5</id>
<content type='text'>
AT_HANDLE_FID was added as an API for name_to_handle_at() that request
the encoding of a file id, which is not intended to be decoded.

This file id is used by fanotify to describe objects in events.

So far, overlayfs is the only filesystem that supports encoding
non-decodeable file ids, by providing export_operations with an
-&gt;encode_fh() method and without a -&gt;decode_fh() method.

Add support for encoding non-decodeable file ids to all the filesystems
that do not provide export_operations, by encoding a file id of type
FILEID_INO64_GEN from { i_ino, i_generation }.

A filesystem may that does not support NFS export, can opt-out of
encoding non-decodeable file ids for fanotify by defining an empty
export_operations struct (i.e. with a NULL -&gt;encode_fh() method).

This allows the use of fanotify events with file ids on filesystems
like 9p which do not support NFS export to bring fanotify in feature
parity with inotify on those filesystems.

Note that fanotify also requires that the filesystems report a non-null
fsid.  Currently, many simple filesystems that have support for inotify
(e.g. debugfs, tracefs, sysfs) report a null fsid, so can still not be
used with fanotify in file id reporting mode.

<id>urn:sha1:e21fc2038c1b978b89bbc3d45a4c5c6ef598e178</id>
<content type='text'>
Rename the default helper for encoding FILEID_INO32_GEN* file handles to
generic_encode_ino32_fh() and convert the filesystems that used the
default implementation to use the generic helper explicitly.

After this change, exportfs_encode_inode_fh() no longer has a default
implementation to encode FILEID_INO32_GEN* file handles.

This is a step towards allowing filesystems to encode non-decodeable
file handles for fanotify without having to implement any
export_operations.

The logic of whether filesystem can encode/decode file handles is open
coded in many places.

In preparation to changing the logic, move the open coded logic into
inline helpers.

<title>vfs: get rid of old '-&gt;iterate' directory operation</title>

All users now just use '-&gt;iterate_shared()', which only takes the
directory inode lock for reading.

Filesystems that never got convered to shared mode now instead use a
wrapper that drops the lock, re-takes it in write mode, calls the old
function, and then downgrades the lock back to read mode.

This way the VFS layer and other callers no longer need to care about
filesystems that never got converted to the modern era.

The filesystems that use the new wrapper are ceph, coda, exfat, jfs,
ntfs, ocfs2, overlayfs, and vboxsf.

Honestly, several of them look like they really could just iterate their
directories in shared mode and skip the wrapper entirely, but the point
of this change is to not change semantics or fix filesystems that
haven't been fixed in the last 7+ years, but to finally get rid of the
dual iterators.

<title>exportfs: add explicit flag to request non-decodeable file handles</title>

<content type='text'>
So far, all callers of exportfs_encode_inode_fh(), except for fsnotify's
show_mark_fhandle(), check that filesystem can decode file handles, but
we would like to add more callers that do not require a file handle that
can be decoded.

Introduce a flag to explicitly request a file handle that may not to be
decoded later and a wrapper exportfs_encode_fid() that sets this flag
and convert show_mark_fhandle() to use the new wrapper.

This will be used to allow adding fanotify support to filesystems that
do not support NFS export.

Convert the bool connectable arguemnt into a bit flags argument and
define the EXPORT_FS_CONNECTABLE flag as a requested property of the
file handle.

We are going to add a flag for requesting non-decodeable file handles.

<title>fs: port -&gt;permission() to pass mnt_idmap</title>

<content type='text'>
Convert to struct mnt_idmap.

Last cycle we merged the necessary infrastructure in
256c8aed2b42 ("fs: introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts").
This is just the conversion to struct mnt_idmap.

Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a
mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy to
conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces
that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for non-vfs developers
without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for
bugs.

Once the conversion to struct mnt_idmap is done all helpers down to the
really low-level helpers will take a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of
two namespace arguments. This way it becomes impossible to conflate the two
eliminating the possibility of any bugs. All of the vfs and all filesystems
only operate on struct mnt_idmap.

expfs.c has a bunch of dprintk statements which are unusable due to:
 #define dprintk(fmt, args...) do{}while(0)
Use pr_debug so that they can be enabled dynamically.
Also make some minor changes to the debug statements to fix some
incorrect types, and remove __func__ which can be handled by dynamic
debug separately.
