cachefiles: Implement culling daemon commands
Implement the ability for the userspace daemon to try and cull a file or directory in the cache. Two daemon commands are implemented: (1) The "inuse" command. This queries if a file is in use or whether it can be deleted. It checks the S_KERNEL_FILE flag on the inode referred to by the specified filename. (2) The "cull" command. This asks for a file or directory to be removed, where removal means either unlinking it or moving it to the graveyard directory for userspace to dismantle. Changes ======= ver #2: - Fix logging of wrong error[1]. - Need to unmark an inode we've moved to the graveyard before unlocking.
