Hi,

these patches improve and simplify our handling of
smbdirect_mr_io structures and their lifetime.

smbd_register_mr() returns a pointer to struct smbdirect_mr_io
and smbd_deregister_mr() gives the pointer back.

But currently the memory itself is managed by the connection
(struct smbdirect_socket) and smbd_destroy() has a strange
wait loop in order to wait for smbd_deregister_mr() being
called. It means code in smbd_destroy() is aware of
the server mutex in the generic smb client handling above
the transport layer.

These patches do some cleanups and fixes before changing
the logic to use a kref and a mutex in order to allow
smbd_deregister_mr() being called after smbd_destroy()
as the memory of smbdirect_mr_io will stay in memory
but will be detached from the connection.

This makes the code independent of cifs_server_[un]lock()
and will allow us to move more smbdirect code into common
functions (shared between client and server).

I think these should go into 6.18.

Stefan Metzmacher (10):
  smb: smbdirect: introduce smbdirect_mr_io.{kref,mutex} and
    SMBDIRECT_MR_DISABLED
  smb: client: change smbd_deregister_mr() to return void
  smb: client: let destroy_mr_list() call list_del(&mr->list)
  smb: client: let destroy_mr_list() remove locked from the list
  smb: client: improve logic in allocate_mr_list()
  smb: client: improve logic in smbd_register_mr()
  smb: client: improve logic in smbd_deregister_mr()
  smb: client: call ib_dma_unmap_sg if mr->sgt.nents is not 0
  smb: client: let destroy_mr_list() call ib_dereg_mr() before
    ib_dma_unmap_sg()
  smb: client: let destroy_mr_list() keep smbdirect_mr_io memory if
    registered
