Fix two problems: First, fix the append seek position race that can
occur due to np->n_size potentially changing if nfs_getcacheblk()
blocks in nfs_write().

Second, under -current we must supply the proper bufsize when obtaining
buffers that straddle the EOF, but due to the fact that np->n_size can
change out from under us it is possible that we may specify the wrong
buffer size and wind up truncating dirty data written by another
process.

Both problems are solved by implementing nfs_rslock(), which allows us
to lock around sensitive buffer cache operations such as those that
occur when appending to a file.

It is believed that this race is responsible for causing dirtyoff/dirtyend
and (in stable) validoff/validend to exceed the buffer size. Therefore
we have now added a warning printf for the dirtyoff/end case in current.

However, we have introduced a new problem which we need to fix at some
point, and that is that soft or intr NFS mounts may become
uninterruptable from the point of view of process A which is stuck waiting
on rslock while process B is stuck doing the rpc. To unstick process A,
process B would have to be interrupted first.

Reimplement the NFS ACCESS RPC cache as an "accelerator" rather than a true
cache. If the cached result lets us say "yes", then go with that. If
we're not sure, or we think the answer might be "no", go to the wire to be
certain. This avoids all of the possible false veto cases, and allows us
to key the cached value with just the UID for which the cached value holds,
reducing the bloat of the nfsnode structure from 104 bytes to just 12 bytes.

Since the "yes" case is by far the most common, this should still provide
a substantial performance improvement. Also default the cache to on, with
a conservative timeout (2 seconds). This improves performance if NFS is
loaded as a KLD module, as there's not (yet) code to parse an option out
of the module arguments to set it, and sysctl doesn't work (yet) for OIDs
in modules.

The 'accelerator' mode was suggested by Bjoern Groenvall (bg@sics.se)

Feedback on this would be appreciated as testing has been necessarily
limited by Comdex, and it would be valuable to have this in 2.2.8.

Implement NFS ACCESS RPC result caching.

This yields startling performance increases for NFS clients for many
access profiles, due to the fact that ACCESS results are persistently
cached in the namecache in many cases.

Note that the code is somewhat conservative in that it requires an
exact credential match for a cache hit. This bloats the nfsnode
structure by sizeof(struct ucred) (96 bytes). Any less conservative
approach opens the possibility for a false veto in eg. setuid
applications. Alternative suggestions would be welcomed.

The cache is normally disabled, to activate set the sysctl variable
vfs.nfs.access_cache_timeout to a nonzero value. This is the time in
seconds that a cached entry will be considered valid; useful values appear
to be 2-10 seconds. Performance of the cache can be monitored with the
vfs.nfs.access_cache_hits and vfs.nfs.access_cache_hits variables.

tree belongs here.

2. Change VOP_BLKATOFF to a normal function in cd9660.

3. Kill VOP_BLKATOFF, VOP_TRUNCATE, VOP_VFREE, VOP_VALLOC. These
are private interface functions between UFS and the underlying
storage manager layer (FFS/LFS/MFS/EXT2FS). The functions now
live in struct ufsmount instead.

4. Remove a kludge of VOP_ functions in all filesystems, that did
nothing but obscure the simplicity and break the expandability.
If a filesystem doesn't implement VOP_FOO, it shouldn't have an
entry for it in its vnops table. The system will try to DTRT
if it is not implemented. There are still some cruft left, but
the bulk of it is done.

5. Fix another VCALL in vfs_cache.c (thanks Bruce!)
