afs: Overhaul cell database management
Overhaul the way that the in-kernel AFS client keeps track of cells in the
following manner:
(1) Cells are now held in an rbtree to make walking them quicker and RCU
managed (though this is probably overkill).
(2) Cells now have a manager work item that:
(A) Looks after fetching and refreshing the VL server list.
(B) Manages cell record lifetime, including initialising and
destruction.
(B) Manages cell record caching whereby threads are kept around for a
certain time after last use and then destroyed.
(C) Manages the FS-Cache index cookie for a cell. It is not permitted
for a cookie to be in use twice, so we have to be careful to not
allow a new cell record to exist at the same time as an old record
of the same name.
(3) Each AFS network namespace is given a manager work item that manages
the cells within it, maintaining a single timer to prod cells into
updating their DNS records.
This uses the reduce_timer() facility to make the timer expire at the
soonest timed event that needs happening.
(4) When a module is being unloaded, cells and cell managers are now
counted out using dec_after_work() to make sure the module text is
pinned until after the data structures have been cleaned up.
(5) Each cell's VL server list is now protected by a seqlock rather than a
semaphore.
