fs: Add VirtualBox guest shared folder (vboxsf) support

VirtualBox hosts can share folders with guests, this commit adds a
VFS driver implementing the Linux-guest side of this, allowing folders
exported by the host to be mounted under Linux.

This driver depends on the guest <-> host IPC functions exported by
the vboxguest driver.

+ * To avoid returning stale data when a file gets *opened* on our (the guest)
+ * side, we do a "stat" on the host side, then compare the mtime with the
+ * last known mtime and invalidate the page-cache if they differ.
+ * This is done from vboxsf_inode_revalidate().
+ *
+ * When reads are done through the read_iter fop, it is possible to do
+ * further cache revalidation then, there are 3 options to deal with this:
+ *
+ * 1)  Rely solely on the revalidation done at open time
+ * 2)  Do another "stat" and compare mtime again. Unfortunately the vboxsf
+ *     host API does not allow stat on handles, so we would need to use
+ *     file->f_path.dentry and the stat will then fail if the file was unlinked
+ *     or renamed (and there is no thing like NFS' silly-rename). So we get:
+ * 2a) "stat" and compare mtime, on stat failure invalidate the cache
+ * 2b) "stat" and compare mtime, on stat failure do nothing
+ * 3)  Simply always call invalidate_inode_pages2_range on the range of the read
+ *
+ * Currently we are keeping things KISS and using option 1. this allows
+ * directly using generic_file_read_iter without wrapping it.
+ *
+ * This means that only data written on the host side before open() on
+ * the guest side is guaranteed to be seen by the guest. If necessary
+ * we may provide other read-cache strategies in the future and make this
+ * configurable through a mount option.
