/*
 * Abstract filesystem. (Or device accessible as a file.)
 *
 * Operations:
 *
 *      fs_sync       - Flush all dirty buffers to disk.
 *      fs_getvolname - Return volume name of filesystem.
 *      fs_getroot    - Return root vnode of filesystem.
 *      fs_unmount    - Attempt unmount of filesystem.
 *
 * fs_getvolname may return NULL on filesystem types that don't
 * support the concept of a volume name. The string returned is
 * assumed to point into the filesystem's private storage and live
 * until unmount time.
 *
 * If the volume name changes on the fly, there is no way at present
 * to make sure such changes don't cause name conflicts. So it probably
 * should be considered fixed.
 *
 * fs_getroot should increment the refcount of the vnode returned.
 * It should not ever return NULL.
 *
 * If fs_unmount returns an error, the filesystem stays mounted, and
 * consequently the struct fs instance should remain valid. On success,
 * however, the filesystem object and all storage associated with the
 * filesystem should have been discarded/released.
 *
 * fs_data is a pointer to filesystem-specific data.
