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.
