Ryusuke Konishi db38d5ad32 nilfs2: add cache framework for persistent object allocator
This adds setup and cleanup routines of the persistent object
allocator cache.

According to ftrace analyses, accessing buffers of the DAT file
suffers indispensable overhead many times.  To mitigate the overhead,
This introduce cache framework for the persistent object allocator
(palloc) which the DAT file and ifile are using.

struct nilfs_palloc_cache represents the cache object per metadata
file using palloc.

The cache is initialized through nilfs_palloc_setup_cache() and
destroyed by nilfs_palloc_destroy_cache(); callers of the former
function will be added to individual allocators of DAT and ifile on
successive patches.

nilfs_palloc_destroy_cache() will be called from nilfs_mdt_destroy()
if the cache is attached to a metadata file.  A companion function
nilfs_palloc_clear_cache() is provided to allow releasing buffer head
references independently with the cleanup task.  This adjunctive
function will be used before invalidating pages of metadata file with
the cache.

Ryusuke Konishi fd66c0d5c3 nilfs2: hide nilfs_mdt_clear calls in nilfs_mdt_destroy
This will hide a function call of nilfs_mdt_clear() in
nilfs_mdt_destroy().

This ensures nilfs_mdt_destroy() to do cleanup jobs included in
nilfs_mdt_clear().

Ryusuke Konishi 5731e191f2 nilfs2: add size option of private object to metadata file allocator
This adds an optional "object size" argument to nilfs_mdt_new_common()
function; the argument specifies the size of private object attached
to a newly allocated metadata file inode.

This will afford space to keep local variables for meta data files.

Ryusuke Konishi 7a102b0923 nilfs2: remove individual gfp constants for each metadata file
This gets rid of NILFS_CPFILE_GFP, NILFS_SUFILE_GFP, NILFS_DAT_GFP,
and NILFS_IFILE_GFP.  All of these constants refer to NILFS_MDT_GFP,
and can be removed.
