[Devel] [RFC][PATCH 5/8] add f_op for checkpointability

We have set up sane defaults for how filesystems should
be checkpointed. However, as usual in the VFS, there
are specialized places that will always need an ability
to override these defaults.
This adds a new 'file_operations' function for
checkpointing a file. I did this under the assumption
that we should have a dirt-simple way to make something
(un)checkpointable that fits in with current code.
As you can see in the /dev/null patch in a second, all
that we have to do to make something like /dev/null
supported is add a single "generic" f_op entry.
