18bc0bbd16 Staging: pohmelfs: kconfig/makefile and vfs changes.
This patch adds Kconfig and Makefile entries and exports to
VFS functions to be used by POHMELFS.

c09ee9d206 Staging: pohmelfs: transaction layer.
This patch implements transaction processing helpers
used to allocate/free/insert/remove and other operations
with the transctions.

Each transction is an object, which may embed multiple commands
completed atomically. When server fails the whole transaction will be
replied against it (or different server) later. This approach allows to
maintain high data integrity and do not desynchronize filesystem state
in case of network or server failures.

d35eef1b42 Staging: pohmelfs: network operations.
This is a main network processing patch. It includes
both low-level socket machinery, zero-copy sending helpers,
receiving and parsing callbacks and mainly logical
commands handlers.

POHMELFS uses async network approach, when every command
can be separated from its answer and received after some
time after the request during which another lots of commands
can be injected into the network and replies to them received.

With read operation balancing between multiple hosts it is possible
that operations will arrive out of order and this is handled
by the transaction mechanism described partially here.

Having a transaction to guard the set of logically compound operations
allows to send data without thinking about its status and using
zero-copy sending mechanism, since transaction will receive explicit
acks from the servers when they are completed.

This patch also contains header with network srtuctures, commands
and short comments on how they are used.

ac7036c131 Staging: pohmelfs: distributed locking and cache coherency protocol.
POHMELFS utilizes writeback cache, which is built on top of MO(E)SI-like
coherency protocol. This patch includes its implementation and cache
object processing helpers (like allocation and completion callbacks).

POHMELFS uses scalable cached read/write locking. No additional requests
are performed if lock is granted to the filesystem. The same protocol
is used by the server to on-demand flushing of the client's cache (for
example when server wants to update local data).

b3f08cad3d Staging: pohmelfs: inode operations.
This is the main patch which implements inode operations
(like reading and writing) and superblock processing
(filesystem registration, initial autoconfiguration
with the server like permissions, size of the exported
dir, amount of the objects created and so on).

POHMELFS relies on system's writeback cache mechanism
shown here, as long as cache coherency protocol described
later.

This patch implementes all supported directory operations
like directory reading, object lookup, creation, removal
and so on.

Currently object removal is not optimized at all.

e2396ae533 Staging: pohmelfs: crypto processing.
POHMELFS is able to encrypt the whole network channel or
attach the strong checksum to own packets to catch faulty media.

This patch implements crypto initialization, its autoconfiguration
and sync with the server.

9ce8b619ee Staging: pohmelfs: configuration interface.
This patch includes POHMELFS configuration interface based
on the netlink kernel connector. This interface allows to create
configuration groups in the kerenel indexed by mount ID option.

Each configuration group can include multiple servers to work
with and various operation parameters.
