Subject: [PATCH 00/13] FS-Cache: Fix a number of bugs that occur when the
cache runs out of space
Attached are a bunch of patches that progressively fix bugs that can occur
when the cache hits the hard "must maintain X free space" limit and starts
rejecting requests.
The commit ensubjected "FS-Cache: Synchronise object death state change vs
operation submission" is the main bug I was looking for. Some of the other
patches fix other bugs I found along the way and the remaining patches are
changes pulled out of the bugfixes to make the bugfix commits more narrowly
targeted.
Note that I added some new stats:
Ops : ini=836360 dfr=19 rel=836360 gc=19
The ini=N field here indicates the number of fscache_operation structs that
were initialised and should match the rel=M value.
CacheEv: nsp=3425 stl=0 rtr=0 cul=0
Indicates counts of certain cache backend events: nsp=N shows how many objects
were rejected due to lack of space in the cache, stl=N shows how many objects
were found to be stale upon reuse and thus discarded, rtr=N how many objects
were retired and cul=N shows how many inactive objects were culled.
These can also be found here:

David Howells (13):
FS-Cache: Count culled objects and objects rejected due to lack of space
FS-Cache: Move fscache_report_unexpected_submission() to make it more available
FS-Cache: When submitting an op, cancel it if the target object is dying
FS-Cache: Handle a new operation submitted against a killed object
FS-Cache: Synchronise object death state change vs operation submission
FS-Cache: fscache_object_is_dead() has wrong logic, kill it
FS-Cache: Permit fscache_cancel_op() to cancel in-progress operations too
FS-Cache: Out of line fscache_operation_init()
FS-Cache: Count the number of initialised operations
FS-Cache: Fix cancellation of in-progress operation
FS-Cache: Put an aborted initialised op so that it is accounted correctly
FS-Cache: The operation cancellation method needs calling in more places
FS-Cache: Retain the netfs context in the retrieval op earlier
