8.x code:
- If the lock cannot be acquired immediately unlocks 'bar' vnode
and then locks both vnodes in order.
- wrong vnode type panics from cache_enter_time after calls by
ext2_lookup.
The fix merges the fixes from ufs/ufs_lookup.c.

The primary changes are that the user of the interface no longer
needs to manage the mount-mutex locking and that the vnode that
is returned has its mutex locked (thus avoiding the need to check
to see if its is DOOMED or other possible end of life senarios).
To minimize compatibility issues for third-party developers, the
old MNT_VNODE_FOREACH interface will remain available so that this
change can be MFC'ed to 9. Following the MFC to 9, MNT_VNODE_FOREACH
will be removed in head.
The reason for this update is to prepare for the addition of the
MNT_VNODE_FOREACH_ACTIVE interface that will loop over just the
active vnodes associated with a mount point (typically less than
1% of the vnodes associated with the mount point).

Return EPERM from ext2_setattr() when an user without PRIV_VFS_SYSFLAGS
privilege attempts to toggle SF_SETTABLE flags.
Flags are now stored to ip->i_flags in one place after all checks.
Also, remove SF_NOUNLINK from the checks because ext2fs doesn't support
that flag.

When using big inodes there is sufficient space in ext3 to
keep extra resolution and birthtime (creation) timestamps.
The appropriate fields in the on-disk inode have been approved
for a long time but support for this in ext3 has not been
widely distributed.
In preparation for ext4 most linux distributions have enabled
by default such bigger inodes and some people use nanosecond
timestamps in ext3. We now support those when the inode is big
enough and while we do recognize the EXT4F_ROCOMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE,
we maintain the extra timestamps even when they are not used.
An additional note by Bruce Evans:
We blindly accept unrepresentable tv_nsec in VOP_SETATTR(), but
all file systems have always done that. When POSIX gets around
to specifying the behaviour, it will probably require certain
rounding to the fs's resolution and not rejecting the request.
This unfortunately means that syscalls that set times can't
really tell if they succeeded without reading back the times
using stat() or similar and checking that they were set close
enough.

Also adjust the internal inode to carry the birthtime,

mnt_noasync counter to temporary remove MNTK_ASYNC mount option, which
is needed to guarantee a synchronous completion of the initiated i/o
before syscall or VOP return. Global removal of MNTK_ASYNC option is
harmful because not only i/o started from corresponding thread becomes
synchronous, but all i/o is synchronous on the filesystem which is
initiated during sync(2) or syncer activity.
Instead of removing MNTK_ASYNC from mnt_kern_flag, provide a local
thread flag to disable async i/o for current thread only. Use the
opportunity to move DOINGASYNC() macro into sys/vnode.h and
consistently use it through places which tested for MNTK_ASYNC.
Some testing demonstrated 60-70% improvements in run time for the
metadata-intensive operations on async-mounted UFS volumes, but still
with great deviation due to other reasons.

While there, remove a useless check from the code. memcchr() always
returns characters unequal to 0xff in this case, so inosused[i] ^ 0xff
can never be equal to zero. Also, the fact that memcchr() returns a
pointer instead of the number of bytes until the end, makes conversion
to an offset far more easy.

The feature has been standard for a while in UFS as a means to reduce
fragmentation, therefore maintaining consistent performance with
filesystem aging. This is also very similar to what ext4 calls
"delayed allocation".
In his 2010 GSoC, Zheng Liu ported and benchmarked the missing
FANCY_REALLOC code to find more consistent performance improvements than
with the preallocation approach.
