Dave Wysochanski a6b5a28eb5 nfs: Convert to new fscache volume/cookie API
Change the nfs filesystem to support fscache's indexing rewrite and
reenable caching in nfs.

The following changes have been made:

 (1) The fscache_netfs struct is no more, and there's no need to register
     the filesystem as a whole.

 (2) The session cookie is now an fscache_volume cookie, allocated with
     fscache_acquire_volume().  That takes three parameters: a string
     representing the "volume" in the index, a string naming the cache to
     use (or NULL) and a u64 that conveys coherency metadata for the
     volume.

     For nfs, I've made it render the volume name string as:

        "nfs,<ver>,<family>,<address>,<port>,<fsidH>,<fsidL>*<,param>[,<uniq>]"

 (3) The fscache_cookie_def is no more and needed information is passed
     directly to fscache_acquire_cookie().  The cache no longer calls back
     into the filesystem, but rather metadata changes are indicated at
     other times.

     fscache_acquire_cookie() is passed the same keying and coherency
     information as before.

 (4) fscache_enable/disable_cookie() have been removed.

     Call fscache_use_cookie() and fscache_unuse_cookie() when a file is
     opened or closed to prevent a cache file from being culled and to keep
     resources to hand that are needed to do I/O.

     If a file is opened for writing, we invalidate it with
     FSCACHE_INVAL_DIO_WRITE in lieu of doing writeback to the cache,
     thereby making it cease caching until all currently open files are
     closed.  This should give the same behaviour as the uptream code.
     Making the cache store local modifications isn't straightforward for
     NFS, so that's left for future patches.

 (5) fscache_invalidate() now needs to be given uptodate auxiliary data and
     a file size.  It also takes a flag to indicate if this was due to a
     DIO write.

 (6) Call nfs_fscache_invalidate() with FSCACHE_INVAL_DIO_WRITE on a file
     to which a DIO write is made.

 (7) Call fscache_note_page_release() from nfs_release_page().

 (8) Use a killable wait in nfs_vm_page_mkwrite() when waiting for
     PG_fscache to be cleared.

 (9) The functions to read and write data to/from the cache are stubbed out
     pending a conversion to use netfslib.

Changes
=======
ver #3:
 - Added missing =n fallback for nfs_fscache_release_file()[1][2].

ver #2:
 - Use gfpflags_allow_blocking() rather than using flag directly.
 - fscache_acquire_volume() now returns errors.
 - Remove NFS_INO_FSCACHE as it's no longer used.
 - Need to unuse a cookie on file-release, not inode-clear.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
