d5c32c89b2 afs: Fix cell DNS lookup
Currently, once configured, AFS cells are looked up in the DNS at regular
intervals - which is a waste of resources if those cells aren't being
used.  It also leads to a problem where cells preloaded, but not
configured, before the network is brought up end up effectively statically
configured with no VL servers and are unable to get any.

Fix this by not doing the DNS lookup until the first time a cell is
touched.  It is waited for if we don't have any cached records yet,
otherwise the DNS lookup to maintain the record is done in the background.

This has the downside that the first time you touch a cell, you now have to
wait for the upcall to do the required DNS lookups rather than them already
being cached.

Further, the record is not replaced if the old record has at least one
server in it and the new record doesn't have any.

ca1cbbdce9 afs: Fix afs_cell records to always have a VL server list record
Fix it such that afs_cell records always have a VL server list record
attached, even if it's a dummy one, so that various checks can be removed.

4584ae96ae afs: Fix missing net error handling
kAFS can be given certain network errors (EADDRNOTAVAIL, EHOSTDOWN and
ERFKILL) that it doesn't handle in its server/address rotation algorithms.
They cause the probing and rotation to abort immediately rather than
rotating.

Fix this by:

 (1) Abstracting out the error prioritisation from the VL and FS rotation
     algorithms into a common function and expand usage into the server
     probing code.

     When multiple errors are available, this code selects the one we'd
     prefer to return.

 (2) Add handling for EADDRNOTAVAIL, EHOSTDOWN and ERFKILL.

3bf0fb6f33 afs: Probe multiple fileservers simultaneously
Send probes to all the unprobed fileservers in a fileserver list on all
addresses simultaneously in an attempt to find out the fastest route whilst
not getting stuck for 20s on any server or address that we don't get a
reply from.

This alleviates the problem whereby attempting to access a new server can
take a long time because the rotation algorithm ends up rotating through
all servers and addresses until it finds one that responds.

2feeaf8433 afs: Eliminate the address pointer from the address list cursor
Eliminate the address pointer from the address list cursor as it's
redundant (ac->addrs[ac->index] can be used to find the same address) and
address lists must be replaced rather than being rearranged, so is of
limited value.

0a5143f2f8 afs: Implement VL server rotation
Track VL servers as independent entities rather than lumping all their
addresses together into one set and implement server-level rotation by:

 (1) Add the concept of a VL server list, where each server has its own
     separate address list.  This code is similar to the FS server list.

 (2) Use the DNS resolver to retrieve a set of servers and their associated
     addresses, ports, preference and weight ratings.

 (3) In the case of a legacy DNS resolver or an address list given directly
     through /proc/net/afs/cells, create a list containing just a dummy
     server record and attach all the addresses to that.

 (4) Implement a simple rotation policy, for the moment ignoring the
     priorities and weights assigned to the servers.

 (5) Show the address list through /proc/net/afs/<cell>/vlservers.  This
     also displays the source and status of the data as indicated by the
     upcall.
