nfs: optimise readdir cache page invalidation
When the directory is large and it's being modified by one client
while another client is doing the 'ls -l' on the same directory then
the cache page invalidation from nfs_force_use_readdirplus causes
the reading client to keep restarting READDIRPLUS from cookie 0
which causes the 'ls -l' to take a very long time to complete,
possibly never completing.
Currently when nfs_force_use_readdirplus is called to switch from
READDIR to READDIRPLUS, it invalidates all the cached pages of the
directory. This cache page invalidation causes the next nfs_readdir
to re-read the directory content from cookie 0.
This patch is to optimise the cache invalidation in
nfs_force_use_readdirplus by only truncating the cached pages from
last page index accessed to the end the file. It also marks the
inode to delay invalidating all the cached page of the directory
until the next initial nfs_readdir of the next 'ls' instance.
