/* Buffer (block) cache. To acquire a block, a routine calls get_block(),
* telling which block it wants. The block is then regarded as "in use"
* and has its 'b_count' field incremented. All the blocks that are not
* in use are chained together in an LRU list, with 'front' pointing
* to the least recently used block, and 'rear' to the most recently used
* block. A reverse chain, using the field b_prev is also maintained.
* Usage for LRU is measured by the time the put_block() is done. The second
* parameter to put_block() can violate the LRU order and put a block on the
* front of the list, if it will probably not be needed soon. If a block
* is modified, the modifying routine must set b_dirt to DIRTY, so the block
* will eventually be rewritten to the disk.
