[GIT PULL v2] afs, rxrpc: Clean up refcounting on afs_cell and afs_server records

Hi Christian,

Could you pull this into the VFS tree onto a stable branch, replacing the
earlier pull?  The patches were previously posted here as part of a longer
series:

  https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250224234154.2014840-1-dhowells@redhat.com/ (local)

The first five patches are fixes that have gone through the net tree to
Linus and hence this patchset is based on the latest merge by Linus and
I've dropped those from my branch.

This fixes an occasional hang that's only really encountered when rmmod'ing
the kafs module, one of the reasons why I'm proposing it for the next merge
window rather than immediate upstreaming.  The changes include:

 (1) Remove the "-o autocell" mount option.  This is obsolete with the
     dynamic root and removing it makes the next patch slightly easier.

 (2) Change how the dynamic root mount is constructed.  Currently, the root
     directory is (de)populated when it is (un)mounted if there are cells
     already configured and, further, pairs of automount points have to be
     created/removed each time a cell is added/deleted.

     This is changed so that readdir on the root dir lists all the known
     cell automount pairs plus the @cell symlinks and the inodes and
     dentries are constructed by lookup on demand.  This simplifies the
     cell management code.

 (3) A few improvements to the afs_volume tracepoint.

 (4) A few improvements to the afs_server tracepoint.

 (5) Pass trace info into the afs_lookup_cell() function to allow the trace
     log to indicate the purpose of the lookup.

 (6) Remove the 'net' parameter from afs_unuse_cell() as it's superfluous.

 (7) In rxrpc, allow a kernel app (such as kafs) to store a word of
     information on rxrpc_peer records.

 (8) Use the information stored on the rxrpc_peer record to point to the
     afs_server record.  This allows the server address lookup to be done
     away with.

 (9) Simplify the afs_server ref/activity accounting to make each one
     self-contained and not garbage collected from the cell management work
     item.

(10) Simplify the afs_cell ref/activity accounting to make each one of
     these also self-contained and not driven by a central management work
     item.

     The current code was intended to make it such that a single timer for
     the namespace and one work item per cell could do all the work
     required to maintain these records.  This, however, made for some
     sequencing problems when cleaning up these records.  Further, the
     attempt to pass refs along with timers and work items made getting it
     right rather tricky when the timer or work item already had a ref
     attached and now a ref had to be got rid of.

Thanks,
David
