      ore/exofs: Change the type of the devices array (API change) · d866d875
      Boaz Harrosh authored
      In the pNFS obj-LD the device table at the layout level needs
      to point to a device_cache node, where it is possible and likely
      that many layouts will point to the same device-nodes.
      
      In Exofs we have a more orderly structure where we have a single
      array of devices that repeats twice for a round-robin view of the
      device table
      
      This patch moves to a model that can be used by the pNFS obj-LD
      where struct ore_components holds an array of ore_dev-pointers.
      (ore_dev is newly defined and contains a struct osd_dev *od
       member)
      
      Each pointer in the array of pointers will point to a bigger
      user-defined dev_struct. That can be accessed by use of the
      container_of macro.
      
      In Exofs an __alloc_dev_table() function allocates the
      ore_dev-pointers array as well as an exofs_dev array, in one
      allocation and does the addresses dance to set everything pointing
      correctly. It still keeps the double allocation trick for the
      inodes round-robin view of the table.
      
      The device table is always allocated dynamically, also for the
      single device case. So it is unconditionally freed at umount.
