Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base

Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base.

It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and
the base is:

commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2
Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
Date:   Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200

    Prepare v4.1.3-rt3

    Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We
should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

+ * map_mft_record - map, pin and lock an mft record
+ * @ni:		ntfs inode whose MFT record to map
+ *
+ * First, take the mrec_lock mutex.  We might now be sleeping, while waiting
+ * for the mutex if it was already locked by someone else.
+ *
+ * The page of the record is mapped using map_mft_record_page() before being
+ * returned to the caller.
+ *
+ * This in turn uses ntfs_map_page() to get the page containing the wanted mft
+ * record (it in turn calls read_cache_page() which reads it in from disk if
+ * necessary, increments the use count on the page so that it cannot disappear
+ * under us and returns a reference to the page cache page).
+ *
+ * If read_cache_page() invokes ntfs_readpage() to load the page from disk, it
+ * sets PG_locked and clears PG_uptodate on the page. Once I/O has completed
+ * and the post-read mst fixups on each mft record in the page have been
+ * performed, the page gets PG_uptodate set and PG_locked cleared (this is done
+ * in our asynchronous I/O completion handler end_buffer_read_mft_async()).
+ * ntfs_map_page() waits for PG_locked to become clear and checks if
+ * PG_uptodate is set and returns an error code if not. This provides
+ * sufficient protection against races when reading/using the page.
+ *
+ * However there is the write mapping to think about. Doing the above described
+ * checking here will be fine, because when initiating the write we will set
+ * PG_locked and clear PG_uptodate making sure nobody is touching the page
+ * contents. Doing the locking this way means that the commit to disk code in
+ * the page cache code paths is automatically sufficiently locked with us as
+ * we will not touch a page that has been locked or is not uptodate. The only
+ * locking problem then is them locking the page while we are accessing it.
+ *
+ * So that code will end up having to own the mrec_lock of all mft
+ * records/inodes present in the page before I/O can proceed. In that case we
+ * wouldn't need to bother with PG_locked and PG_uptodate as nobody will be
+ * accessing anything without owning the mrec_lock mutex.  But we do need to
+ * use them because of the read_cache_page() invocation and the code becomes so
+ * much simpler this way that it is well worth it.
+ *
+ * The mft record is now ours and we return a pointer to it. You need to check
+ * the returned pointer with IS_ERR() and if that is true, PTR_ERR() will return
+ * the error code.
+ *
+ * NOTE: Caller is responsible for setting the mft record dirty before calling
+ * unmap_mft_record(). This is obviously only necessary if the caller really
+ * modified the mft record...
+ * Q: Do we want to recycle one of the VFS inode state bits instead?
+ * A: No, the inode ones mean we want to change the mft record, not we want to
+ * write it out.

+ * and possible the ntfs inode of the mft record is locked and the base vfs
+ * inode is pinned.  The locked ntfs inode is then returned in @locked_ni.  The
+ * caller is responsible for unlocking the ntfs inode and unpinning the base
+ * vfs inode.
+ *
+ * Return 'true' if the mft record may be written out and 'false' if not.
+ *
+ * The caller has locked the page and cleared the uptodate flag on it which
+ * means that we can safely write out any dirty mft records that do not have
+ * their inodes in icache as determined by ilookup5() as anyone
+ * opening/creating such an inode would block when attempting to map the mft
+ * record in read_cache_page() until we are finished with the write out.
+ *
+ * Here is a description of the tests we perform:
+ *
+ * If the inode is found in icache we know the mft record must be a base mft
+ * record.  If it is dirty, we do not write it and return 'false' as the vfs
+ * inode write paths will result in the access times being updated which would
+ * cause the base mft record to be redirtied and written out again.  (We know
+ * the access time update will modify the base mft record because Windows
+ * chkdsk complains if the standard information attribute is not in the base
+ * mft record.)
+ *
+ * If the inode is in icache and not dirty, we attempt to lock the mft record
+ * and if we find the lock was already taken, it is not safe to write the mft
+ * record and we return 'false'.
+ *
+ * If we manage to obtain the lock we have exclusive access to the mft record,
+ * which also allows us safe writeout of the mft record.  We then set
+ * @locked_ni to the locked ntfs inode and return 'true'.
+ *
+ * Note we cannot just lock the mft record and sleep while waiting for the lock
+ * because this would deadlock due to lock reversal (normally the mft record is
+ * locked before the page is locked but we already have the page locked here
+ * when we try to lock the mft record).
+ *
+ * If the inode is not in icache we need to perform further checks.
+ *
+ * If the mft record is not a FILE record or it is a base mft record, we can
+ * safely write it and return 'true'.
+ *
+ * We now know the mft record is an extent mft record.  We check if the inode
+ * corresponding to its base mft record is in icache and obtain a reference to
+ * it if it is.  If it is not, we can safely write it and return 'true'.
+ *
+ * We now have the base inode for the extent mft record.  We check if it has an
+ * ntfs inode for the extent mft record attached and if not it is safe to write
+ * the extent mft record and we return 'true'.
+ *
+ * The ntfs inode for the extent mft record is attached to the base inode so we
+ * attempt to lock the extent mft record and if we find the lock was already
+ * taken, it is not safe to write the extent mft record and we return 'false'.
+ *
+ * If we manage to obtain the lock we have exclusive access to the extent mft
+ * record, which also allows us safe writeout of the extent mft record.  We
+ * set the ntfs inode of the extent mft record clean and then set @locked_ni to
+ * the now locked ntfs inode and return 'true'.
+ *
+ * Note, the reason for actually writing dirty mft records here and not just
+ * relying on the vfs inode dirty code paths is that we can have mft records
+ * modified without them ever having actual inodes in memory.  Also we can have
+ * dirty mft records with clean ntfs inodes in memory.  None of the described
+ * cases would result in the dirty mft records being written out if we only
+ * relied on the vfs inode dirty code paths.  And these cases can really occur
+ * during allocation of new mft records and in particular when the
+ * initialized_size of the $MFT/$DATA attribute is extended and the new space
+ * is initialized using ntfs_mft_record_format().  The clean inode can then
+ * appear if the mft record is reused for a new inode before it got written

+ * ntfs_mft_record_alloc - allocate an mft record on an ntfs volume

+ * @base_ni:	[IN]  open base inode if allocating an extent mft record or NULL
+ * @mrec:	[OUT] on successful return this is the mapped mft record
+ *
+ * Allocate an mft record in $MFT/$DATA of an open ntfs volume @vol.
+ *
+ * If @base_ni is NULL make the mft record a base mft record, i.e. a file or
+ * direvctory inode, and allocate it at the default allocator position.  In
+ * this case @mode is the file mode as given to us by the caller.  We in
+ * particular use @mode to distinguish whether a file or a directory is being
+ * created (S_IFDIR(mode) and S_IFREG(mode), respectively).
+ *
+ * If @base_ni is not NULL make the allocated mft record an extent record,
+ * allocate it starting at the mft record after the base mft record and attach
+ * the allocated and opened ntfs inode to the base inode @base_ni.  In this
+ * case @mode must be 0 as it is meaningless for extent inodes.
+ *
+ * You need to check the return value with IS_ERR().  If false, the function
+ * was successful and the return value is the now opened ntfs inode of the
+ * allocated mft record.  *@mrec is then set to the allocated, mapped, pinned,
+ * and locked mft record.  If IS_ERR() is true, the function failed and the
+ * error code is obtained from PTR_ERR(return value).  *@mrec is undefined in
+ * this case.
+ *
+ * Allocation strategy:
+ *
+ * To find a free mft record, we scan the mft bitmap for a zero bit.  To
+ * optimize this we start scanning at the place specified by @base_ni or if
+ * @base_ni is NULL we start where we last stopped and we perform wrap around
+ * when we reach the end.  Note, we do not try to allocate mft records below
+ * number 24 because numbers 0 to 15 are the defined system files anyway and 16
+ * to 24 are special in that they are used for storing extension mft records
+ * for the $DATA attribute of $MFT.  This is required to avoid the possibility
+ * of creating a runlist with a circular dependency which once written to disk
+ * can never be read in again.  Windows will only use records 16 to 24 for
+ * normal files if the volume is completely out of space.  We never use them
+ * which means that when the volume is really out of space we cannot create any
+ * more files while Windows can still create up to 8 small files.  We can start
+ * doing this at some later time, it does not matter much for now.
+ *
+ * When scanning the mft bitmap, we only search up to the last allocated mft
+ * record.  If there are no free records left in the range 24 to number of
+ * allocated mft records, then we extend the $MFT/$DATA attribute in order to
+ * create free mft records.  We extend the allocated size of $MFT/$DATA by 16
+ * records at a time or one cluster, if cluster size is above 16kiB.  If there
+ * is not sufficient space to do this, we try to extend by a single mft record
+ * or one cluster, if cluster size is above the mft record size.
+ *
+ * No matter how many mft records we allocate, we initialize only the first
+ * allocated mft record, incrementing mft data size and initialized size
+ * accordingly, open an ntfs_inode for it and return it to the caller, unless
+ * there are less than 24 mft records, in which case we allocate and initialize
+ * mft records until we reach record 24 which we consider as the first free mft
+ * record for use by normal files.
+ *
+ * If during any stage we overflow the initialized data in the mft bitmap, we
+ * extend the initialized size (and data size) by 8 bytes, allocating another
+ * cluster if required.  The bitmap data size has to be at least equal to the
+ * number of mft records in the mft, but it can be bigger, in which case the
+ * superflous bits are padded with zeroes.
+ *
+ * Thus, when we return successfully (IS_ERR() is false), we will have:
+ *	- initialized / extended the mft bitmap if necessary,
+ *	- initialized / extended the mft data if necessary,
+ *	- set the bit corresponding to the mft record being allocated in the
+ *	  mft bitmap,
+ *	- opened an ntfs_inode for the allocated mft record, and we will have
+ *	- returned the ntfs_inode as well as the allocated mapped, pinned, and
+ *	  locked mft record.
+ *
+ * On error, the volume will be left in a consistent state and no record will
+ * be allocated.  If rolling back a partial operation fails, we may leave some
+ * inconsistent metadata in which case we set NVolErrors() so the volume is
+ * left dirty when unmounted.
+ *
+ * Note, this function cannot make use of most of the normal functions, like
+ * for example for attribute resizing, etc, because when the run list overflows
+ * the base mft record and an attribute list is used, it is very important that
+ * the extension mft records used to store the $DATA attribute of $MFT can be
+ * reached without having to read the information contained inside them, as
+ * this would make it impossible to find them in the first place after the
+ * volume is unmounted.  $MFT/$BITMAP probably does not need to follow this
+ * rule because the bitmap is not essential for finding the mft records, but on
+ * the other hand, handling the bitmap in this special way would make life
+ * easier because otherwise there might be circular invocations of functions
+ * when reading the bitmap.
