    ceph: rework dcache readdir · fdd4e158

    Previously our dcache readdir code relies on that child dentries in
    directory dentry's d_subdir list are sorted by dentry's offset in
    descending order. When adding dentries to the dcache, if a dentry
    already exists, our readdir code moves it to head of directory
    dentry's d_subdir list. This design relies on dcache internals.
    Al Viro suggests using ncpfs's approach: keeping array of pointers
    to dentries in page cache of directory inode. the validity of those
    pointers are presented by directory inode's complete and ordered
    flags. When a dentry gets pruned, we clear directory inode's complete
    flag in the d_prune() callback. Before moving a dentry to other
    directory, we clear the ordered flag for both old and new directory.
