Implement client side caching for NFSv4.2 extended attributes. The cache is a per-inode hashtable, with name/value entries. There is one special entry for the listxattr cache. NFS inodes have a pointer to a cache structure. The cache structure is allocated on demand, freed when the cache is invalidated. Memory shrinkers keep the size in check. Large entries (> PAGE_SIZE) are collected by a separate shrinker, and freed more aggressively than others.
