mainlining shenanigans

Currently, NFSv2/3 reads and writes have to open a file, do the read or write and then close it again for each RPC. This is highly inefficient, especially when the underlying filesystem has a relatively slow open routine. This patch adds a new open file cache to knfsd. Rather than doing an open for each RPC, the read/write handlers can call into this cache to see if there is one already there for the correct filehandle and NFS_MAY_READ/WRITE flags. If there isn't an entry, then we create a new one and attempt to perform the open. If there is, then we wait until the entry is fully instantiated and return it if it is at the end of the wait. If it's not, then we attempt to take over construction. Since the main goal is to speed up NFSv2/3 I/O, we don't want to close these files on last put of these objects. We need to keep them around for a little while since we never know when the next READ/WRITE will come in. Cache entries have a hardcoded 1s timeout, and we have a recurring workqueue job that walks the cache and purges any entries that have expired.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
