fscache: Implement volume-level access helpers
Add a pair of helper functions to manage access to a volume, pinning the volume in place for the duration to prevent cache withdrawal from removing it: bool fscache_begin_volume_access(struct fscache_volume *volume, enum fscache_access_trace why); void fscache_end_volume_access(struct fscache_volume *volume, enum fscache_access_trace why); The way the access gate on the volume 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 volume's n_accesses count and then recheck the cache liveness, ending the access if it ceased to be live. (3) When we end the access, we decrement the volume's n_accesses and wake up the any waiters if it reaches 0. (4) Whilst the cache is caching, the volume's 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, the volume's n_accesses is decremented and we wait for it to become 0.
