This avoids unnecessary map allocation and initialization of unused fields of
request structure. It also allows to track thier number separately from
the regular requests

The queues can be created and destroyed dynamically at any point in
the cache lifetime, and this can happen from different execution contexts,
thus there is a need to protect the queue_list with a lock.

To allow the fastest switching from the passive-standby to active mode, the
runtime metadata must be kept 100% synced with the metadata on the drive and in
the RAM thus recovery is required after each collision section update.
To avoid long-lasting recovering of all the cachelines each time the collision
section is being updated, the passive update procedure recovers only those
which have its MD entries on the updated pages.

Cache name is needed for logging in passive mode, when config metadata
is still not accessible.

New structure ocf_part is added to contain all the data common for both
user partitions and freelist partition: part_runtime and part_id.
ocf_user_part now contains ocf_part structure as well as pointer to
cleaning partition runtime metadata (moved out from part_runtime) and
user partition config (no change here).

Move ref counts to their own cacheline - otherwise they pollute and cause
false sharing to fields nearby and cause a lot of cache bouncing between
physical CPUs.

To eliminate possibility of allocation error in cache stop, pipeline is
allocated on attach.
Due this change, the only possible non-zero status of ocf_mngt_cache_stop() is
just a warning and cache is always stopped after executing it.

Global free cacheline list is divided into a set of freelists, one
per execution context. When attempting to map addres to cache, first
the freelist for current execution context is considered (fast path).
If current execution context freelist is empty (fast path failure),
mapping function attempts to get freelist from other execution context
list (slow path).
The purpose of this change is improve concurrency in freelist access.
It is part of fine granularity metadata lock implementation.
