Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 00/30] Rust abstractions for VFS

This series introduces Rust abstractions that allow read-only file systems to
be written in Rust.

There are three file systems implementations using these abstractions
abstractions: ext2, tarfs, and puzzlefs. The first two are part of this series.

Rust file system modules can be declared with the `module_fs` macro and are
required to implement the following functions (which are part of the
`FileSystem` trait):

    fn fill_super(
        sb: &mut SuperBlock<Self, sb::New>,
        mapper: Option<inode::Mapper>,
    ) -> Result<Self::Data>;

    fn init_root(sb: &SuperBlock<Self>) -> Result<dentry::Root<Self>>;

They can optionally implement the following:

    fn read_xattr(
        _dentry: &DEntry<Self>,
        _inode: &INode<Self>,
        _name: &CStr,
        _outbuf: &mut [u8],
    ) -> Result<usize>;

    fn statfs(_dentry: &DEntry<Self>) -> Result<Stat>;

They may also choose the type of the data they can attach to superblocks and/or
inodes.

Lastly, file systems can implement inode, file, and address space operations
and attach them to inodes when they're created, similar to how C does it. They
can get a ro address space operations table from an implementation of iomap
operations, to be used with generic ro file operations.

Changes in v2:

- Rebased to latest rust-next tree
- Removed buffer heads
- Added iomap support
- Removed `_pin` field from `Registration` as it's not needed anymore
- Renamed sample filesystem to match the module's name
- Using typestate instead of a separate type for superblock/new-superblock
- Created separate submodules for superblocks, inodes, dentries, and files
- Split out operations from FileSystem to inode/file/address_space ops, similar to how C does it
- Removed usages of folio_set_error
- Removed UniqueFolio, for now reading blocks from devices via the pagecache
- Changed map() to return the entire folio if not in highmem
- Added support for unlocking the folio asynchronously
- Added `from_raw` to all new ref-counted types
- Added explicit types in calls to cast()
- Added typestate to folio
- Added support for implementing get_link
- Fixed data race when reading inode->i_state
- Added nofs scope support during allocation
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20231018122518.128049-1-wedsonaf@gmail.com/
