netfs: Gather stats
Gather statistics from the netfs interface that can be exported through a seqfile. This is intended to be called by a later patch when viewing /proc/fs/fscache/stats.

+ help
+ This option causes statistical information to be gathered on local
+ caching and exported through file:
+
+ /proc/fs/fscache/stats
+
+ The gathering of statistics adds a certain amount of overhead to
+ execution as there are a quite a few stats gathered, and on a
+ multi-CPU system these may be on cachelines that keep bouncing
+ between CPUs. On the other hand, the stats are very useful for
+ debugging purposes. Saying 'Y' here is recommended.
