cifs: add attribute cache timeout (actimeo) tunable

Currently, the attribute cache timeout for CIFS is hardcoded to 1 second. This
means that the client might have to issue a QPATHINFO/QFILEINFO call every 1
second to verify if something has changes, which seems too expensive. On the
other hand, if the timeout is hardcoded to a higher value, workloads that
expect strict cache coherency might see unexpected results.

Making attribute cache timeout as a tunable will allow us to make a tradeoff
between performance and cache metadata correctness depending on the
application/workload needs.

Add 'actimeo' tunable that can be used to tune the attribute cache timeout.
The default timeout is set to 1 second. Also, display actimeo option value in
/proc/mounts.

It appears to me that 'actimeo' and the proposed (but not yet merged)
'strictcache' option cannot coexist, so care must be taken that we reset the
other option if one of them is set.

Changes since last post:
   - fix option parsing and handle possible values correcly

After this timeout, the cifs client requests fresh attribute
information from the server. This option allows to tune the
attribute cache timeout to suit the workload needs. Shorter
timeouts mean better the cache coherency, but increased number
of calls to the server. Longer timeouts mean reduced number
of calls to the server at the expense of less stricter cache
coherency checks (i.e. incorrect attribute cache for a short
period of time).
