remove restricted chown parameter from xfs linux

On Linux all filesystems are supposed to be operating under
Posix' restricted chown. Restricted chown means it restricts
chown to the owner unless you have CAP_FOWNER.

NOTE: that 2 files outside of fs/xfs have been modified too
for this change.

Radix tree based inode caching

One of the perpetual scaling problems XFS has is indexing
it's incore inodes. We currently uses hashes and the default
hash sizes chosen can only ever be a tradeoff between memory
consumption and the maximum realistic size of the cache.

As a result, anyone who has millions of inodes cached on a
filesystem needs to tunes the size of the cache via the ihashsize
mount option to allow decent scalability with inode cache
operations.

A further problem is the separate inode cluster hash, whose size is
based on the ihashsize but is smaller, and so under certain
conditions (sparse cluster cache population) this can become
a limitation long before the inode hash is causing issues.

The following patchset removes the inode hash and cluster hash
and replaces them with radix trees to avoid the scalability
limitations of the hashes. It also reduces the size of the
inodes by 3 pointers....
Merge of 2.6.x-xfs-melb:linux:29481b by kenmcd.

  Update ihashsize mount option as deprecated.
