If a file may contain unstable writes that can error out, then we want
to avoid garbage collecting the struct nfsd_file that may be
tracking those errors.
So in the garbage collector, we try to avoid collecting files that aren't
clean. Furthermore, we avoid immediately kicking off the garbage collector
in the case where the reference drops to zero for the case where there
is a write error that is being tracked.
If the file is unhashed while an error is pending, then declare a
reboot, to ensure the client resends any unstable writes.

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.
