    fuse: invalidation reverse calls · 3b463ae0
    John Muir 提交于
    Add notification messages that allow the filesystem to invalidate VFS
    caches.
    
    Two notifications are added:
    
     1) inode invalidation
    
       - invalidate cached attributes
       - invalidate a range of pages in the page cache (this is optional)
    
     2) dentry invalidation
    
       - try to invalidate a subtree in the dentry cache
    
    Care must be taken while accessing the 'struct super_block' for the
    mount, as it can go away while an invalidation is in progress.  To
    prevent this, introduce a rw-semaphore, that is taken for read during
    the invalidation and taken for write in the ->kill_sb callback.
