two cache_refs - it needs to count the consumers of the lower cache to find
its actual number of references; the upper cache could still be in use by
someone else.
* There were several locking bugs in the VM code; since cache_ref::cache can
change, we must not access it without having the cache_ref locked.
* As a result, map_backing_store() now requires you to have the lock of the
store's cache_ref held.
* And therefore, some functions in vm_cache.c must no longer lock the cache_ref
on their own, but require the caller to have it locked already.
* Added the -s option to the cache/cache_ref KDL commands: it will only print
the requested structure, and not its counterpart (useful if accessing one
structure results in a page fault, as was possible previously).

* a vm_cache now maintains a list of its "consumer" caches.
* introduced to new functions that add/remove consumer to a cache (instead
of only maintaining the vm_cache::source field).
* fixed the incorrect reference counting when doing copy-on-write; we kept
one ref too many of the lower cache.
* minor cleanup.

systems a chance to know if they have locked already.
This fixes a locking problem in BFS where one thread tried to acquire two read
locks (where someone else trying to acquire a write lock would have caused a
dead lock).

or vm_cache_ref couldn't be created, instead of cleaning up and returning
an appropriate error.
* vm_cache_ref_create() no returns a status_t instead of the vm_cache_ref
(as that's part of the vm_cache anyway).

vm_cache_ref starts with a reference count of 1. When acquiring a vm_cache,
you no longer need to worry if that should go through the vm_store, or not;
as it now always does.
* map_backing_store() no longer needs to play with the vm_cache_ref
references.
* that simplified some code.
* vfs_get_vnode_cache() now grabs a reference to the cache, if successful.
* better balanced vnode ownership on vnode_store creation (vnode_store
released the vnode before if its creation failed).

Changed size argument of vm_cache_resize() from size_t to off_t.

Renamed vm_area::lock to vm_area::protection to be less confusing - wiring
is still called wiring, though (might be renamed to lock later, as that's
how BeOS calls it).

for temporary memory anymore, it's the store's responsibility to do that
correctly now, and that functionality is reached via the vm_cache using
vm_cache_set_minimal_commitment().
Therefore, the vm_store commit() function now returns a status instead of
the size that could be commited.
Replaced the max_commit mechanism with one that cares about the available
memory, stores can reserve and unreserve such memory. The anonymous_commit()
will now fail in case it could not reserve the needed amount of memory.
