Add three functions to manipulate PG_private_2:
(*) set_page_private_2() - Set the flag and take an appropriate reference
on the flagged page.
(*) end_page_private_2() - Clear the flag, drop the reference and wake up
any waiters, somewhat analogously with end_page_writeback().
(*) wait_on_page_private_2() - Wait for the flag to be cleared.
Wrappers will need to be placed in the netfs lib header in the patch that
adds that.
[This implements a suggestion by Linus[1] to not mix the terminology of
PG_private_2 and PG_fscache in the mm core function]
Changes:
v5:
- Add set and end functions, calling the end function end rather than
unlock[3].
- Keep a ref on the page when PG_private_2 is set[4][5].
v4:
- Remove extern from the declaration[2].
