    Pull orangefs updates from Mike Marshall:
     "A fix and two cleanups.
    
      Fix:
    
       - Christoph Hellwig noticed that some logic I added to
         orangefs_file_read_iter introduced a race condition, so he sent a
         reversion patch. I had to modify his patch since reverting at this
         point broke Orangefs.
    
      Cleanups:
    
       - Christoph Hellwig noticed that we were doing some unnecessary work
         in orangefs_flush, so he sent in a patch that removed the un-needed
         code.
    
       - Al Viro told me he had trouble building Orangefs. Orangefs should
         be easy to build, even for Al :-).
    
         I looked back at the test server build notes in orangefs.txt, just
         in case that's where the trouble really is, and found a couple of
         typos and made a couple of clarifications"

      orangefs: get rid of knob code...
