Implement a very simple cookie state machine to handle lookup, invalidation, withdrawal, relinquishment and, to be added later, commit on LRU discard. Three cache methods are provided: ->lookup_cookie() to look up and, if necessary, create a data storage object; ->withdraw_cookie() to free the resources associated with that object and potentially delete it; and ->prepare_to_write(), to do prepare for changes to the cached data to be modified locally. Changes ======= ver #3: - Fix a race between LRU discard and relinquishment whereby the former would override the latter and thus the latter would never happen[1]. ver #2: - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when n_accesses reaches 0.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
