[PATCH] fuse: no backgrounding on interrupt
Don't put requests into the background when a fatal interrupt occurs while the request is in userspace. This removes a major wart from the implementation. Backgrounding of requests was introduced to allow breaking of deadlocks. However now the same can be achieved by aborting the filesystem through the 'abort' sysfs attribute. This is a change in the interface, but should not cause problems, since these kinds of deadlocks never happen during normal operation.

- * Unfortunately request interruption not just solves the deadlock
- * problem, it causes problems too. These stem from the fact, that an
- * interrupted request is continued to be processed in userspace,
- * while all the locks and object references (inode and file) held
- * during the operation are released.
- *
- * To release the locks is exactly why there's a need to interrupt the
- * request, so there's not a lot that can be done about this, except
- * introduce additional locking in userspace.
- *
- * More important is to keep inode and file references until userspace
- * has replied, otherwise FORGET and RELEASE could be sent while the
- * inode/file is still used by the filesystem.
- *
- * For this reason the concept of "background" request is introduced.
- * An interrupted request is backgrounded if it has been already sent
- * to userspace. Backgrounding involves getting an extra reference to
- * inode(s) or file used in the request, and adding the request to
- * fc->background list. When a reply is received for a background
- * request, the object references are released, and the request is
- * removed from the list. If the filesystem is unmounted while there
- * are still background requests, the list is walked and references
- * are released as if a reply was received.
- *
- * There's one more use for a background request. The RELEASE message is
- * always sent as background, since it doesn't return an error or
- * data.
