fuse: add prune notification
Some fuse servers need to prune their caches, which can only be done if the
kernel's own dentry/inode caches are pruned first to avoid dangling
references.
Add FUSE_NOTIFY_PRUNE, which takes an array of node ID's to try and get rid
of. Inodes with active references are skipped.
A similar functionality is already provided by FUSE_NOTIFY_INVAL_ENTRY with
the FUSE_EXPIRE_ONLY flag. Differences in the interface are
FUSE_NOTIFY_INVAL_ENTRY:
- can only prune one dentry
- dentry is determined by parent ID and name
- if inode has multiple aliases (cached hard links), then they would have
to be invalidated individually to be able to get rid of the inode
FUSE_NOTIFY_PRUNE:
- can prune multiple inodes
- inodes determined by their node ID
- aliases are taken care of automatically
