tmpfs: use a seperate lock to protect all_nodes
Previously, tmpfs used diskfs_node_refcnt_lock to serialize access to the all_nodes and some other related global state related to memory consumption. Use a separate lock to protect all_nodes, and atomic operations to access the state related to memory consumption. Adjust the reference counting accordingly. Every node in the all_nodes carries a light reference. When we are asked to give up that light reference, we reacquire our lock momentarily to check whether someone else reacquired a reference through the all_nodes. * tmpfs/tmpfs.h (num_files, tmpfs_space_used): Use atomic operations for these variables. (adjust_used): Use atomic operations. (get_used): New convenience function to atomically retrieve tmpfs_space_used. * tmpfs/node.c (all_nodes_lock): New lock. (diskfs_alloc_node): Use a separate lock to protect all_nodes. Adjust the reference counting accordingly. (diskfs_free_node): Likewise. (diskfs_cached_lookup):Likewise. (diskfs_node_iterate): Likewise. (diskfs_node_norefs): Do not remove the node from all_nodes. This actually looks like a mistake, I do not know why they did that here as well as in diskfs_free_node. (diskfs_try_dropping_softrefs): Check whether someone reacquired a reference, and if so hold on to our light reference. (diskfs_grow): Use atomic operations. * tmpfs/tmpfs.c (diskfs_set_statfs): Likewise.
