2009-04-03FS-Cache: Add netfs registrationDavid Howells
Add functions to register and unregister a network filesystem or other client of the FS-Cache service. This allocates and releases the cookie representing the top-level index for a netfs, and makes it available to the netfs. If the FS-Cache facility is disabled, then the calls are optimised away at compile time. Note that whilst this patch may appear to work with FS-Cache enabled and a netfs attempting to use it, it will leak the cookie it allocates for the netfs as fscache_relinquish_cookie() is implemented in a later patch. This will cause the slab code to emit a warning when the module is removed.
