Patch series "ocfs2: use kobject for online file check", v3.
Use embedded kobject mechanism for online file check feature, this will
avoid to use a global list to save/search per-device online file check
related data. The changed code is based on Goldwyn Rodrigues's patches
and ext4 fs code, there is not any new features added, except some very
small fixes during this code refactoring. Second, the code change does
not affect the underlying file check code. Thank Goldwyn very much.
Compare with second version, add more comments in the patch
descriptions, to make sure each modification is mentioned. Compare with
first version, split the code change into four patches, make sure each
patch will not bring ocfs2 kernel modules compiling errors.
This patch (of 3):
Move some definitions to header file, which will be referenced by other
source files when kobject mechanism is introduced.

Make wait_on_atomic_t() pass the TASK_* mode onto its action function as an
extra argument and make it 'unsigned int throughout.
Also, consolidate a bunch of identical action functions into a default
function that can do the appropriate thing for the mode.
Also, change the argument name in the bit_wait*() function declarations to
reflect the fact that it's the mode and not the bit number.
[Peter Z gives this a grudging ACK, but thinks that the whole atomic_t wait
should be done differently, though he's not immediately sure as to how]
