This implements fcntl() for getting amount of resident memory in cache.
Kernel already maintains counter for each inode, this patch just exposes
it into userspace. Returned size is in kilobytes like values in procfs.
I think this needs a 32-bit compat implementation which clamps the
returned value to INT_MAX.
32-bit machine couldn't hold more than 2TB cache in one file.
Even radix tree wouldn't fit into low memory area.
I meant a 32-bit process running on a 64-bit kernel.
