bd3cde4571 Move primary cache code to libminixfs.
Add primary cache management feature to libminixfs as mfs and ext2
currently do separately, remove cache code from mfs and ext2, and make
them use the libminixfs interface. This makes all fields of the buf
struct private to libminixfs and FS clients aren't supposed to access
them at all. Only the opaque 'void *data' field (the FS block contents,
used to be called bp) is to be accessed by the FS client.

The main purpose is to implement the interface to the 2ndary vm cache
just once, get rid of some code duplication, and add a little
abstraction to reduce the code inertia of the whole caching business.

Some minor sanity checking and prohibition done by mfs in this code
as removed from the generic primary cache code as a result:
        - checking all inodes are not in use when allocating/resizing
          the cache
        - checking readonly filesystems aren't written to
        - checking the superblock isn't written to on mounted filesystems

The minixfslib code relies on fs_blockstats() in the client filesystem to
return some FS usage information.

9b7d357ca1 mfs: use macros to mark blocks and inodes dirty
. No functional change
	. Only serves to get hooks to do checks in
	. e.g. should things be marked dirty when we are
	  mounted readonly

6bbcab3ec4 Clean up MFS a bit:
- Remove unused includes.
 - Add include guards to headers.
 - Use unsigned variables in case they're never going to hold a negative
   value. This causes GCC's complaints to disappear and should make flexelint
   a lot happier, too.
 - Make functions private when they're used only within a module.
 - Remove unused variables.
 - Add casts where appropriate.

d2c10fb85e inodes - using types with known size
- fixes a problem in inodes truct definitions. The original definitions use
  posix types. These types don't have well defined size. Therefore when
  compiling mkfs on a different system natively the inodes sizes do not match.
  This patch replaces the posix types with interger types of the same size and
  signedness as the original types in use.
