Joanne Koong 2b3933b1e0 fuse: enable dynamic configuration of fuse max pages limit (FUSE_MAX_MAX_PAGES)
Introduce the capability to dynamically configure the max pages limit
(FUSE_MAX_MAX_PAGES) through a sysctl. This allows system administrators
to dynamically set the maximum number of pages that can be used for
servicing requests in fuse.

Previously, this is gated by FUSE_MAX_MAX_PAGES which is statically set
to 256 pages. One result of this is that the buffer size for a write
request is limited to 1 MiB on a 4k-page system.

The default value for this sysctl is the original limit (256 pages).

$ sysctl -a | grep max_pages_limit
fs.fuse.max_pages_limit = 256

$ sysctl -n fs.fuse.max_pages_limit
256

$ echo 1024 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit
1024

$ sysctl -n fs.fuse.max_pages_limit
1024

$ echo 65536 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit
tee: /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit: Invalid argument

$ echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit
tee: /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit: Invalid argument

$ echo 65535 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit
65535

$ sysctl -n fs.fuse.max_pages_limit
65535
