* cache of file contents with support for zero-copy IO.
* this works by reserving a region of the cache, using it as the IO buffer,
* and returning the memory directly to users. optional write-protection
* via MMU ensures that the shared contents aren't inadvertently changed.
*
* (unique copies of) VFS pathnames are used as lookup key and owner tag.
*
* to ensure efficient operation and prevent fragmentation, only one
* reference should be active at a time. in other words, read a file,
* process it, and only then start reading the next file.
*
* rationale: this is rather similar to BlockCache; however, the differences
* (Reserve's size parameter, eviction policies) are enough to warrant
* separate implementations.
