Eric Van Hensbergen 46f6dac259 [PATCH] v9fs: simplify fid mapping
v9fs has been plagued by an over-complicated approach trying to map Linux
dentry semantics to Plan 9 fid semantics.  Our previous approach called for
aggressive flushing of the dcache resulting in several problems (including
wierd cwd behavior when running /bin/pwd).

This patch dramatically simplifies our handling of this fid management.  Fids
will not be clunked as promptly, but the new approach is more functionally
correct.  We now clunk un-open fids only when their dentry ref_count reaches 0
(and d_delete is called).

Another simplification is we no longer seek to match fids to the process-id or
uid of the action initiator.  The uid-matching will need to be revisited when
we fix the security model.
