[PATCH 1/2] mm: cleancache: lazy initialization to allow tmembackends to build/run as modules

From: Dan Magenheimer
Date: Wed Oct 31 2012 - 11:07:50 EST


With the goal of allowing tmem backends (zcache, ramster, Xen tmem) to be
built/loaded as modules rather than built-in and enabled by a boot parameter,
this patch provides "lazy initialization", allowing backends to register to
cleancache even after filesystems were mounted. Calls to init_fs and
init_shared_fs are remembered as fake poolids but no real tmem_pools created.
On backend registration the fake poolids are mapped to real poolids and
respective tmem_pools.
