The nfsd_file nf_rwsem is currently being used to separate file write
and commit instances to ensure that we catch errors and apply them to
the correct write/commit.
We can improve scalability at the expense of a little accuracy (some
extra false positives) by replacing the nf_rwsem with more careful
use of the errseq_t mechanism to track errors across the different
operations.

[ cel: rebased on zero-verifier fix ]
Use the 'refcount_t' type instead of 'atomic_t' for improved
refcounting safety.

Strictly speaking, a stable write error needs to reflect the
write + the commit of that write (and only that write). To
ensure that we don't pick up the write errors from other
writebacks, add a rw_semaphore to provide exclusion.

Ensure that if the filecache laundrette gets stuck, it only affects
the knfsd instances of one container.
The notifier callbacks can be called from various contexts so avoid
using synchonous filesystem operations that might deadlock.

Ensure that we can safely clear out the file cache entries when the
nfs server is shut down on a container. Otherwise, the file cache
may end up pinning the mounts.

Currently, NFSv2/3 reads and writes have to open a file, do the read or
write and then close it again for each RPC. This is highly inefficient,
especially when the underlying filesystem has a relatively slow open
routine.
This patch adds a new open file cache to knfsd. Rather than doing an
open for each RPC, the read/write handlers can call into this cache to
see if there is one already there for the correct filehandle and
NFS_MAY_READ/WRITE flags.
If there isn't an entry, then we create a new one and attempt to
perform the open. If there is, then we wait until the entry is fully
instantiated and return it if it is at the end of the wait. If it's
not, then we attempt to take over construction.
Since the main goal is to speed up NFSv2/3 I/O, we don't want to
close these files on last put of these objects. We need to keep them
around for a little while since we never know when the next READ/WRITE
will come in.
Cache entries have a hardcoded 1s timeout, and we have a recurring
workqueue job that walks the cache and purges any entries that have
expired.
