- Remove the Filesystem argument from DentryImpl.*Ref(); in general DentryImpls
that need the Filesystem for reference counting will probably also need it
for other interface methods that don't plumb Filesystem, so it's easier to
just store a pointer to the filesystem in the DentryImpl.
- Add a pointer to the VirtualFilesystem to Filesystem, which is needed by the
gofer client to disown dentries for cache eviction triggered by dentry
reference count changes.
- Rename FilesystemType.NewFilesystem to GetFilesystem; in some cases (e.g.
sysfs, cgroupfs) it's much cleaner for there to be only one Filesystem that
is used by all mounts, and in at least one case (devtmpfs) it's visibly
incorrect not to do so, so NewFilesystem doesn't always actually create and
return a *new* Filesystem.
- Require callers of FileDescription.Init() to increment Mount/Dentry
references. This is because the gofer client may, in the OpenAt() path, take
a reference on a dentry with 0 references, which is safe due to
synchronization that is outside the scope of this CL, and it would be safer
to still have its implementation of DentryImpl.IncRef() check for an
increment for 0 references in other cases.
- Add FileDescription.TryIncRef. This is used by the gofer client to take
references on "special file descriptions" (FDs for files such as pipes,
sockets, and devices), which use per-FD handles (fids) instead of
dentry-shared handles, for sync() and syncfs().
