Currently, the volume set option features.cache-invalidation enables upcall
feature on server side and md-cache cache-invalidation on client side.
There are multiple problems that can arise from this:
1. The scenario when user wants to, enable upcall for nfs-ganesha setup,
but do not want to enable md-cache cache-invalidation, as the
nfs-clients have already cached the metadata and upcall is used to
to invalidate the nfs-client cache. In this case, users should have
a way of disabling md-cache invalidation without disabling upcall.
2. Upcall requires a op-version of GD_OP_VERSION_3_7_0, where as
md-cache invalidation requires an op version of GD_OP_VERSION_3_9_0.
Consider a setup where the servers are in op-version GD_OP_VERSION_3_7_0,
and th clients are in op-version GD_OP_VERSION_3_9_0. if there is one
single volume set option, user can enable this feature in this setup.
But it can lead to stale xattr cache as the xattr invalidation was
introduced in upcall only in release 3.8. Hence, we should not be
able to enable md-cache invalidation, if all the servers and clients
are not on opversion >= GD_OP_VERSION_3_9_0.
To solve the above mentioned issues, we have seperate volume options
for enabling md-cache invalidation and upcall. But this can lead to
issues when user enable md-cache invalidation and forgets to enable
upcall. Probably in the next release, these can be enables by default.

Problem:
md-cache currently updates its stat in cbks of selected fops.
The default cache time is 1 second, if this is increasd to reap the
benefits of caching, we may end up with stale cache for long time,
as there is no logic yet to notify md-cache of backend changes by
another client.
Solution:
Use the existing upcall mechanism to invalidate the cache.
For this feature to work, "features.cache-invalidation" volume
option should be enabled.
This patch as is doesn't improve any performance, the benifit of the
patch is that it provides coherency for stat cache, hence the cache
timeout can be quite longer which in turn can improve the performance.
