fscache: Implement cache-level access helpers
Add a pair of functions to pin/unpin a cache that we're wanting to do a
high-level access to (such as creating or removing a volume):
bool fscache_begin_cache_access(struct fscache_cache *cache,
enum fscache_access_trace why);
void fscache_end_cache_access(struct fscache_cache *cache,
enum fscache_access_trace why);
The way the access gate works/will work is:
(1) If the cache tests as not live (state is not FSCACHE_CACHE_IS_ACTIVE),
then we return false to indicate access was not permitted.
(2) If the cache tests as live, then we increment the n_accesses count and
then recheck the liveness, ending the access if it ceased to be live.
(3) When we end the access, we decrement n_accesses and wake up the any
waiters if it reaches 0.
(4) Whilst the cache is caching, n_accesses is kept artificially
incremented to prevent wakeups from happening.
(5) When the cache is taken offline, the state is changed to prevent new
accesses, n_accesses is decremented and we wait for n_accesses to
become 0.
Note that some of this is implemented in a later patch.
