NeilBrown c25a89770d nfs_localio: change nfsd_file_put_local() to take a pointer to __rcu pointer
Instead of calling xchg() and unrcu_pointer() before
nfsd_file_put_local(), we now pass pointer to the __rcu pointer and call
xchg() and unrcu_pointer() inside that function.

Where unrcu_pointer() is currently called the internals of "struct
nfsd_file" are not known and that causes older compilers such as gcc-8
to complain.

In some cases we have a __kernel (aka normal) pointer not an __rcu
pointer so we need to cast it to __rcu first.  This is strictly a
weakening so no information is lost.  Somewhat surprisingly, this cast
is accepted by gcc-8.

This has the pleasing result that the cmpxchg() which sets ro_file and
rw_file, and also the xchg() which clears them, are both now in the nfsd
code.

README

Linux kernel

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
