  • Add a flags field to help glibc implementing statvfs(3) efficiently.

    We copy the flag values from glibc, and add a new ST_VALID flag to
    denote that f_flags is implemented.

  • We'll need the path to implement the flags field for statvfs support.
    We do have it available in all callers except:

    - ecryptfs_statfs. This one doesn't actually need vfs_statfs but just
    needs to do a caller to the lower filesystem statfs method.
    - sys_ustat. Add a non-exported statfs_by_dentry helper for it which
    doesn't won't be able to fill out the flags field later on.

    In addition rename the helpers for statfs vs fstatfs to do_*statfs instead
    of the misleading vfs prefix.
