A large directory full of differently sized file names triggered this.
Most directories, even very large directories with shorter names, would
be lucky enough to fit in one server response.

If an application seeks to a position before the point which has been
read, it must want updates which have been made to the directory. So
delete the copy stored in the kernel so it will be fetched again.

If userspace seeks to a position in the stream which is not correct, it
would have returned EIO because the data in the buffer at that offset
would be incorrect. This and the userspace daemon returning a corrupt
directory are indistinguishable.
Now if the data does not look right, skip forward to the next chunk and
try again. The motivation is that if the directory changes, an
application may seek to a position that was valid and no longer is valid.
It is not yet possible for a directory to change.

They are clones of the ORANGEFS_ITERATE macros in use elsewhere. Delete
ORANGEFS_ITERATE_NEXT which is a hack previously used by readdir.

This works by maintaining a linked list of pages which the directory
has been read into rather than one giant fixed-size buffer.
This replaces code which limits the total directory size to the total
amount that could be returned in one server request. Since filenames
are usually considerably shorter than the maximum, the old code could
usually handle several server requests before running out of space.

In the past, readdir assumed that the user buffer will be large enough
that all entries from the server will fit. If this was not true,
entries would be skipped.
Since it works now, request 512 entries rather than 96 per server
operation.

This was quite an oversight. After a readdir, the module could not be
unloaded, the number of slots is wrong, and memory near the slot bitmap
is possibly corrupt. Oops.

just have it return the slot number or -E... - the caller checks
the sign anyway

no point, really - we couldn't keep those across the calls of
getdents(); it would be too easy to DoS, having all slots exhausted.

We only need it while the service operation is actually in progress
since it is only used to co-ordinate the client-core's memory use. The
kernel allocates its own space.
Also clean up some comments which mislead the reader into thinking
the readdir buffers are shared memory.

OrangeFS was formerly known as PVFS2 and retains the name in many places.
I leave the device /dev/pvfs2-req since this affects userspace.
I leave the filesystem type pvfs2 since this affects userspace. Further
the OrangeFS sysint library reads fstab for an entry of type pvfs2
independently of kernel mounts.
I leave extended attribute keys user.pvfs2 and system.pvfs2 as the
sysint library understands these.
I leave references to userspace binaries still named pvfs2.
I leave the filenames.

Don't check for negative rc from boolean.
Don't pointlessly initialize variables, it short-circuits
gcc's uninitialized variable warnings. And max_new_nr_segs
can never be zero, so don't check for it.
Preserve original kstrdup pointer for freeing later.
Don't check for negative value in unsigned variable.
