For the case of NFSv4, specify to the client that the pre/post-op
attributes were not recorded atomically with the main operation.

[ Upstream commit daab110e47f8d7aa6da66923e3ac1a8dbd2b2a72 ]
With NFSv3 nfsd will always attempt to send along WCC data to the
client. This generally involves saving off the in-core inode information
prior to doing the operation on the given filehandle, and then issuing a
vfs_getattr to it after the op.
Some filesystems (particularly clustered or networked ones) have an
expensive ->getattr inode operation. Atomicity is also often difficult
or impossible to guarantee on such filesystems. For those, we're best
off not trying to provide WCC information to the client at all, and to
simply allow it to poll for that information as needed with a GETATTR
RPC.
This patch adds a new flags field to struct export_operations, and
defines a new EXPORT_OP_NOWCC flag that filesystems can use to indicate
that nfsd should not attempt to provide WCC info in NFSv3 replies. It
also adds a blurb about the new flags field and flag to the exporting
documentation.
The server will also now skip collecting this information for NFSv2 as
well, since that info is never used there anyway.
Note that this patch does not add this flag to any filesystem
export_operations structures. This was originally developed to allow
reexporting nfs via nfsd.
Other filesystems may want to consider enabling this flag too. It's hard
to tell however which ones have export operations to enable export via
knfsd and which ones mostly rely on them for open-by-filehandle support,
so I'm leaving that up to the individual maintainers to decide. I am
cc'ing the relevant lists for those filesystems that I think may want to
consider adding this though.

Minor cleanup, no change in behavior.
Also pull out a common helper that'll be useful elsewhere.

[ Upstream commit 70b87f77294d16d3e567056ba4c9ee2b091a5b50 ]
inode_query_iversion() can modify i_version. Depending on the exported
filesystem, that may not be safe. For example, if you're re-exporting
NFS, NFS stores the server's change attribute in i_version and does not
expect it to be modified locally. This has been observed causing
unnecessary cache invalidations.
The way a filesystem indicates that it's OK to call
inode_query_iverson() is by setting SB_I_VERSION.
So, move the I_VERSION check out of encode_change(), where it's used
only in GETATTR responses, to nfsd4_change_attribute(), which is
also called for pre- and post- operation attributes.
(Note we could also pull the NFSEXP_V4ROOT case into
nfsd4_change_attribute() as well. That would actually be a no-op,
since pre/post attrs are only used for metadata-modifying operations,
and V4ROOT exports are read-only. But we might make the change in
the future just for simplicity.)
