sunrpc: split cache_detail queue into request and reader lists

Browse source

Replace the single interleaved queue (which mixed cache_request and
cache_reader entries distinguished by a ->reader flag) with two
dedicated lists: cd->requests for upcall requests and cd->readers
for open file handles.

Readers now track their position via a monotonically increasing
sequence number (next_seqno) rather than by their position in the
shared list. Each cache_request is assigned a seqno when enqueued,
and a new cache_next_request() helper finds the next request at or
after a given seqno.

This eliminates the cache_queue wrapper struct entirely, simplifies
the reader-skipping loops in cache_read/cache_poll/cache_ioctl/
cache_release, and makes the data flow easier to reason about.
