fscache: Implement cache registration
Implement a register of caches and provide functions to manage it. Two functions are provided for the cache backend to use: (1) Acquire a cache cookie: struct fscache_cache *fscache_acquire_cache(const char *name) This gets the cache cookie for a cache of the specified name and moves it to the preparation state. If a nameless cache cookie exists, that will be given this name and used. (2) Relinquish a cache cookie: void fscache_relinquish_cache(struct fscache_cache *cache); This relinquishes a cache cookie, cleans it and makes it available if it's still referenced by a network filesystem. Note that network filesystems don't deal with cache cookies directly, but rather go straight to the volume registration.
