Allowing request cacheline lock to be called on partially
locked request. This is going to be usefull for upcomming
eviction improvements, where request will first have evicted
(LOOKUP_REMAPPED) cachelines assigned to it in a locked state,
followed by standard request cacheline lock call in order to
lock previously inserted (LOOKUP_HIT) or mapped from freelist
(LOOKUP_INSERTED) cachelines.

Function returns true if cacheline is locked (read
or write) by exactly one entity with no waiters.
This is usefull for eviction. Assuming caller holds
hash bucket write lock, having exlusive cacheline
lock (either read or write) allows holder to remap
cacheline safely. Typically during eviction hash
bucket is unknown until resolved under cacheline lock,
so locking cacheline exclusively (instead of locking
and checking for exclusive lock) is not possible.
More specifically this is the flow for synchronizing
cacheline remap using ocf_cache_line_is_locked_exclusively:
1. acquire a cacheline (read or write) lock
2. resolve hash bucket
3. write-lock hash bucket
4. verify cacheline lock is exclusive

Reformat function that calculates how long cache/core is dirty
Update `dirty_for` types in functional tests
Values stored in info structs fields (both in cache and core structs)
are unsigned 64-bits ints but `dirty_for`s were unsigned 32-bits ints.
Use existing function to transform returned value to seconds.
Replace seconds stored in metadata with seconds.
Replacement was done if old value of replaced field was equal to zero.
Acquiring monotonic high precission timestamp is potentially
slow and it makes sense to compare the field's value
to zero before calling atomic function.

Provide number of cachelines as the cacheline concurrency

Cacheline concurrency functions have their interface changed
so that the cacheline concurrency private context is
explicitly on the parameter list, rather than being taken
from cache->device->concurrency.cache_line.
Cache pointer is no longer provided as a parameter to these
functions. Cacheline concurrency context now has a pointer
to cache structure (for logging purposes only).
The purpose of this change is to facilitate unit testing.

The main purpose of cacheline concurrency global lock
is to eliminate the possibility of deadlocks when
locking multiple cachelines.
Cacheline lock fast path does not need to acquire
this lock, as it is only opportunistically attempting
to lock all clines without wait. There is no risk
of deadlock, as:
* concurrent fast path will also only try_lock
cachelines, releasing all acquired locks if failed
to immediately acquire lock for any cacheline
* concurrent slow path is guaranteed to have
precedence in lock acquisition when conditions
for deadlock occure (both slowpath and fastpath
have acquired some locks required by the other
thread). This is because the fastpath thread will
back off (release acquired locks) if any one of the
cacheline locks is not acquired.

1. new abbreviated previx: ocf_hb (HB stands for hash bucket)
2. clear distinction between functions requiring caller to
hold metadata shared global lock ("naked") vs the ones
which acquire global lock on its own ("prot" for protected)
3. clear distinction between hash bucket locking functions
accepting hash bucket id ("id"), core line and lba ("cline")
and entire request ("req").
Resulting naming scheme:
ocf_hb_(id/cline/req)_(prot/naked)_(lock/unlock/trylock)_(rd/wr)

Top 50% least recently used cachelines are not promoted
to list head upon access. Only after cacheline drops to
bottom 50% it is considered as a candidate to promote
to list head.

If there is any dirty data on the cache associated with removed core,
we must flush collision metadata after removing core to make metadata
persistent in case of dirty shutdown.
This fixes the problem when recovery procedure erroneously interprets
cache lines that belonged to removed core as valid ones.
This also fixes the problem, when after removing core containing dirty
data another core is added, and then recovery procedure following dirty
shutdown assigns cache lines from removed core to the new one, effectively
leading to data corruption.

Locks acquired in ocf_metadata_flush(/load)_all are
acquired only for the duration of queueing asynch
service for flush/load, no actual metadata accesses
are performed there.
Also flush/load all are always performed with metadata
marked as deinitialized (metadata reference counter freezed),
so no I/O is reading nor writing the metadata. The only source
of potential concurrent metadata accesses are other management
operations, which should be synchronized using management lock.
