Paulo Alcantara 54be1f6c1c cifs: Add DFS cache routines
* Add new dfs_cache.[ch] files

* Add new /proc/fs/cifs/dfscache file
  - dump current cache when read
  - clear current cache when writing "0" to it

* Add delayed_work to periodically refresh cache entries

The new interface will be used for caching DFS referrals, as well as
supporting client target failover.

The DFS cache is a hashtable that maps UNC paths to cache entries.

A cache entry contains:
- the UNC path it is mapped on
- how much the the UNC path the entry consumes
- flags
- a Time-To-Live after which the entry expires
- a list of possible targets (linked lists of UNC paths)
- a "hint target" pointing the last known working target or the first
  target if none were tried. This hint lets cifs.ko remember and try
  working targets first.

* Looking for an entry in the cache is done with dfs_cache_find()
  - if no valid entries are found, a DFS query is made, stored in the
    cache and returned
  - the full target list can be copied and returned to avoid race
    conditions and looped on with the help with the
    dfs_cache_tgt_iterator

* Updating the target hint to the next target is done with
  dfs_cache_update_tgthint()

These functions have a dfs_cache_noreq_XXX() version that doesn't
fetches referrals if no entries are found. These versions don't
require the tcp/ses/tcon/cifs_sb parameters as a result.

Expired entries cannot be used and since they have a pretty short TTL
[1] in order for them to be useful for failover the DFS cache adds a
delayed work called periodically to keep them fresh.

Since we might not have available connections to issue the referral
request when refreshing we need to store volume_info structs with
credentials and other needed info to be able to connect to the right
server.

1: Windows defaults: 5mn for domain-based referrals, 30mn for regular
links
