fuse: separate queue for FORGET requests
Terje Malmedal reports that a fuse filesystem with 32 million inodes on a machine with lots of memory can go unresponsive for up to 30 minutes when all those inodes are evicted from the icache. The reason is that FORGET messages, sent when the inode is evicted, are queued up together with regular filesystem requests, and while the huge queue of FORGET messages are processed no other filesystem operation can proceed. Since a full fuse request structure is allocated for each inode, these take up quite a bit of memory as well. To solve these issues, create a slim 'fuse_forget_link' structure containing just the minimum of information required to send the FORGET request and chain these on a separate queue. When userspace is asking for a request make sure that FORGET and non-FORGET requests are selected fairly: for each 8 non-FORGET allow 16 FORGET requests. This will make sure FORGETs do not pile up, yet other requests are also allowed to proceed while the queued FORGETs are processed.
