Subject: [PATCH v4] fuse: share lookup state between submount and its parent

Fuse submounts do not perform a lookup for the nodeid that they inherit
from their parent. Instead, the code decrements the nlookup on the
submount's fuse_inode when it is instantiated, and no forget is
performed when a submount root is evicted.

Trouble arises when the submount's parent is evicted despite the
submount itself being in use. In this author's case, the submount was
in a container and deatched from the initial mount namespace via a
MNT_DEATCH operation. When memory pressure triggered the shrinker, the
inode from the parent was evicted, which triggered enough forgets to
render the submount's nodeid invalid.

Since submounts should still function, even if their parent goes away,
solve this problem by sharing refcounted state between the parent and
its submount. When all of the references on this shared state reach
zero, it's safe to forget the final lookup of the fuse nodeid.

Changes since v3:

- Remove rcu head from lookup tracking struct along with unnecessary
kfree_rcu call. (Feedback from Miklos Szeredi)
- Make nlookup one implicitly. Remove from struct and simplify places
where it was being used. (Feedback from Miklos Szeredi)
- Remove unnecessary spinlock acquisition. (Feedback from Miklos
Szeredi)
- Add a WARN_ON if the lookup tracking cookie cannot be found during
fuse_fill_super_submount. (Feedback from Miklos Szeredi)

Changes since v2:

- Move to an approach where the lookup is shared between the submount's
parent and children. Use a reference counted lookup cookie to decide
when it is safe to perform the forget of the final reference.
(Feedback from Miklos Szeredi)

Changes since v1:

- Cleanups to pacify test robot

Changes since RFC:

- Modified fuse_fill_super_submount to always fail if dentry cannot be
revalidated. (Feedback from Bernd Schubert)
- Fixed up an edge case where looked up but subsequently declared
invalid dentries were not correctly tracking nlookup. (Error was
introduced in my RFC).
