NeilBrown d43113fbbf nfsd: optimise recalculate_deny_mode() for a common case
recalculate_deny_mode() takes time that is linear in the number of
stateids active on the file.

When called from
  release_openowner -> free_ol_stateid_reaplist ->nfs4_free_ol_stateid
  -> release_all_access

the number of times it is called is linear in the number of stateids.
The net result is that time taken by release_openowner is quadratic in
the number of stateids.

When the nfsd server is shut down while there are many active stateids
this can result in a soft lockup. ("CPU stuck for 302s" seen in one case).

In many cases all the states have the same deny modes and there is no
need to examine the entire list in recalculate_deny_mode().  In
particular, recalculate_deny_mode() will only reduce the deny mode,
never increase it.  So if some prefix of the list causes the original
deny mode to be required, there is no need to examine the remainder of
the list.

So we can improve recalculate_deny_mode() to usually run in constant
time, so release_openowner will typically be only linear in the number
of states.

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.
