[PATCH V7 7/9] fs: Define I_DONTCACNE in VFS layer

[ira.weiny@intel.com]

From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@intel.com>

DAX effective mode changes (setting of S_DAX) require inode eviction.

Define a flag which can be set to inform the VFS layer that inodes
should not be cached.  This will expedite the eviction of those nodes
requiring reload.
