Ben Gras 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

Ben Gras f984dbba70 increase system-wide filename limit to 255
. move mfs-specific struct, constants to mfs/, so
	  mfs-specific, on-disk format structs and consts are
	  fully isolated from generic structs and functions
	. removes de and readfs utils

Thomas Veerman 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.

Ben Gras f78d8e74fd secondary cache feature in vm.
A new call to vm lets processes yield a part of their memory to vm,
together with an id, getting newly allocated memory in return. vm is
allowed to forget about it if it runs out of memory. processes can ask
for it back using the same id. (These two operations are normally
combined in a single call.)

It can be used as a as-big-as-memory-will-allow block cache for
filesystems, which is how mfs now uses it.

Not complete, probably not fully debugged or optimized.
