mm/fs: add hooks to support cleancache
This fourth patch of eight in this cleancache series provides the core hooks in VFS for: initializing cleancache per filesystem; capturing clean pages reclaimed by page cache; attempting to get pages from cleancache before filesystem read; and ensuring coherency between pagecache, disk, and cleancache. Note that the placement of these hooks was stable from 2.6.18 to 2.6.38; a minor semantic change was required due to a patchset in 2.6.39. All hooks become no-ops if CONFIG_CLEANCACHE is unset, or become a check of a boolean global if CONFIG_CLEANCACHE is set but no cleancache "backend" has claimed cleancache_ops. Details and a FAQ can be found in Documentation/vm/cleancache.txt [v8: minchan.kim@gmail.com: adapt to new remove_from_page_cache function] Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Magenheimer <dan.magenheimer@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Reviewed-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Rik Van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Jan Beulich <JBeulich@novell.com> Cc: Andreas Dilger <adilger@sun.com> Cc: Ted Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com> Cc: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com> Cc: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
