[PATCH 18/34] pnfsblock: allow use of PG_owner_priv_1 flag

[Jim Rees <rees@umich.edu>]

From: Fred Isaman <iisaman@citi.umich.edu>

There is currently no good way for pnfs to communicate problems.  For
example - the linux read code first tries to do readahead through
nfs_readpages. Failure there is ignored, and it will later call
nfs_readpage.  Failure there is also ignored, except that the lack of
PG_uptodate is communicated back via -EIO.

With pnfs, it would be useful to be able to communicate to
nfs_readpage that direct disk IO failed on readahead, and that it
should failover to using the MDS.

Making the page flag PG_owner_priv_1 available as PG_pnfserr is one
way to do so. (An alternative would be to embed this in the layout,
but then pg_test can't easily access the info.)

This may be better as generic pnfs code, in which case it should be
put in pnfs.h, or even page-flags.h
