[PATCH 0/6] fuse: Further reducing contention of fc->lock

[Kirill Tkhai <ktkhai@virtuozzo.com>]

There was introduced fc->bg_lock to reduce the contention,
and this patchset continues this efforts.

This patchset introduces per fuse_inode lock to protect
inode metadata, synchronization with background writes, etc.
All of the above is related to a single inode, and there
is no a reason, that inodes are concurrents of each other
to make some of actions exclusive.

So, here we introduce fuse_inode::lock spinlock and get rid
of fc->lock in many places.
