fscache: Implement cookie user counting and resource pinning
Provide a pair of functions to count the number of users of a cookie (open files, writeback, invalidation, resizing, reads, writes), to obtain and pin resources for the cookie and to prevent culling for the whilst there are users. The first function marks a cookie as being in use: void fscache_use_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, bool will_modify); The caller should indicate the cookie to use and whether or not the caller is in a context that may modify the cookie (e.g. a file open O_RDWR). If the cookie is not already resourced, fscache will ask the cache backend in the background to do whatever it needs to look up, create or otherwise obtain the resources necessary to access data. This is pinned to the cookie and may not be culled, though it may be withdrawn if the cache as a whole is withdrawn. The second function removes the in-use mark from a cookie and, optionally, updates the coherency data: void fscache_unuse_cookie(struct fscache_cookie *cookie, const void *aux_data, const loff_t *object_size); If non-NULL, the aux_data buffer and/or the object_size will be saved into the cookie and will be set on the backing store when the object is committed. If this removes the last usage on a cookie, the cookie is placed onto an LRU list from which it will be removed and closed after a couple of seconds if it doesn't get reused. This prevents resource overload in the cache - in particular it prevents it from holding too many files open. Changes ======= ver #2: - Fix fscache_unuse_cookie() to use atomic_dec_and_lock() to avoid a potential race if the cookie gets reused before it completes the unusement. - Added missing transition to LRU_DISCARDING state.
