Subject: [RFC][cr][PATCH  6/6] Checkpoint/restart file leases

Build upon the C/R of file-locks to C/R file-leases. C/R of a lease that is
not being broken is almost identical to C/R of file-locks.  i.e save the type
of lease for the file in the checkpoint image and when restarting, restore
the lease by calling do_setlease().

C/R of file-lease gets complicated (I think), if a process is checkpointed
when its lease was being revoked. i.e if P1 has a F_WRLCK lease on file F1
and P2 opens F1 for write, P2's open is blocked for lease_break_time (45 secs).
P1's lease is revoked (i.e set to F_UNLCK) and P1 is notified via a SIGIO to
flush any dirty data.

This brings up two issues:

First, if P1 is checkpointed during this lease_break_time, we need to remember
to that P1 originally had a F_WRLCK lease which is now revoked to F_UNLCK.
Checkpointing the "current lease type" would wrongly save the lease-type as
F_UNLCK.

Secondly, if P1 was checkpointed 40 seconds into the lease_break_time,(i.e.
it had 5 seconds remaining in the lease), we want to ensure that after restart,
P1 gets at least 5 more seconds in the lease (no ?). (i.e P1 could be in the
its SIGIO handler when it was checkpointed and may be about to start a new
write(). If P1 does not gets its 5 seconds and P2's open and a read()
completes, we would have a data corruption).

This patch addresses the first issue above by adding file_lock->fl_type_prev
field. When a lease is downgraded/revoked, the original lease type is saved
in ->fl_type_prev and is also checkpointed. When the process P1 is restarted,
the kernel temporarily restores the original (F_WRLCK) lease.  When process
P2 is restarted, the open() would fail with -ERESTARTSYS and the open() would
be repeated. This open() would initiate the lease-break protocol again on P1.

To address the second issue above, this patch saves the remaining-lease in
the checkpoint image, but does not (yet) use this value. The plan is to use
this remaining-lease period when P1/P2 are restarted so that P2 is blocked
only for the remaining-lease rather than entire lease_break_time. I want to
check if there are better ways to address this.

TODO:
        When the lease-break protocol is repeated:

                - P1 gets a second SIGIO. We could add a flag to file_lock
                  to remember that we have already sent the SIGIO.

                - P1 gets a full 'lease_break_time' again (i.e P2 will block
                  for 45-seconds again even though it had already blocked for
                  40 seconds before checkpoint).
