fscache: Provide a means to begin an operation
Provide a function to begin a read operation: int fscache_begin_read_operation( struct netfs_cache_resources *cres, struct fscache_cookie *cookie) This is primarily intended to be called by network filesystems on behalf of netfslib, but may also be called to use the I/O access functions directly. It attaches the resources required by the cache to cres struct from the supplied cookie. This holds access to the cache behind the cookie for the duration of the operation and forces cache withdrawal and cookie invalidation to perform synchronisation on the operation. cres->inval_counter is set from the cookie at this point so that it can be compared at the end of the operation. Note that this does not guarantee that the cache state is fully set up and able to perform I/O immediately; looking up and creation may be left in progress in the background. The operations intended to be called by the network filesystem, such as reading and writing, are expected to wait for the cookie to move to the correct state. This will, however, potentially sleep, waiting for a certain minimum state to be set or for operations such as invalidate to advance far enough that I/O can resume. Also provide a function for the cache to call to wait for the cache object to get to a state where it can be used for certain things: bool fscache_wait_for_operation(struct netfs_cache_resources *cres, enum fscache_want_stage stage); This looks at the cache resources provided by the begin function and waits for them to get to an appropriate stage. There's a choice of wanting just some parameters (FSCACHE_WANT_PARAM) or the ability to do I/O (FSCACHE_WANT_READ or FSCACHE_WANT_WRITE).

fscache: Remove the contents of the fscache driver, pending rewrite
Remove the code that comprises the fscache driver as it's going to be substantially rewritten, with the majority of the code being erased in the rewrite. A small piece of linux/fscache.h is left as that is #included by a bunch of network filesystems.

fscache, cachefiles: Add alternate API to use kiocb for read/write to cache
Add an alternate API by which the cache can be accessed through a kiocb, doing async DIO, rather than using the current API that tells the cache where all the pages are. The new API is intended to be used in conjunction with the netfs helper library. A filesystem must pick one or the other and not mix them. Filesystems wanting to use the new API must #define FSCACHE_USE_NEW_IO_API before #including the header. This prevents them from continuing to use the old API at the same time as there are incompatibilities in how the PG_fscache page bit is used. Changes: v6: - Provide a routine to shape a write so that the start and length can be aligned for DIO[3]. v4: - Use the vfs_iocb_iter_read/write() helpers[1] - Move initial definition of fscache_begin_read_operation() here. - Remove a commented-out line[2] - Combine ki->term_func calls in cachefiles_read_complete()[2]. - Remove explicit NULL initialiser[2]. - Remove extern on func decl[2]. - Put in param names on func decl[2]. - Remove redundant else[2]. - Fill out the kdoc comment for fscache_begin_read_operation(). - Rename fs/fscache/page2.c to io.c to match later patches.
