This leaked at least one IRP for every write, making it the largest leak when
running with BTRFS as the system volume.

Up to now, it was working by chance. Indeed, due to the invalid
ASCII check performed before calling FsRtlIsAnsiCharacterLegalHpfs(), the
macro is improperly called and overruns the FsRtlLegalAnsiCharacterArray
buffer. Fortunately, up to now, right after that buffer in kernel binary
there are strings which are more or less consistent with the flags that
are expected by the macro, causing a decent behavior of
FsRtlIsAnsiCharacterLegalHpfs() even for extended ASCII characters
(whereas FsRtlIsAnsiCharacterLegalHpfs() is only designed for ASCII
characters). But this is a totally out of control and wrong behavior.
A single change in the way the kernel was built could have caused the
CDFS driver not to work as previously.
I have made the choice to allow any extended ASCII character as done
for the unicode characters. This is a good compromise to avoid drastic
regressions for users having extended ASCII characters in their CD
file names.
This imports proposed upstream commit 1b6b625641dffb49951e60398e1a9c672318ea71

When we're about to close a file (ie, forget everything about it
and release any associated structure), actually delay it.
This allows keep data fresh in memory for faster reuse in case
it would be required. The effective closing will only happen after some time.
For specific operations, this will produce a real speed up in ReactOS.
For instance, with that patch, Winamp starts within seconds, instead of dozen
of minutes.
In most cases, it will bring ReactOS to performances it had before fixing
the huge leak in FastFAT (commit 94ead99) without leaking the whole FS.
For now, due to regressions, this is only activated for files and not
for directories. Once it gets fixed, it will be enabled for both.

For whatever (unknown) reason yet, this stream file object
seems to be deleted when still in use while installing
ReactOS on BtrFS partition, leading to use after free.
So, quick and dirty hack: leak it to prevent deletion.

Multiple "error C4189: '[...]': local variable is initialized but not referenced".
Thanks to Yuntian Zhang, who hinted at this in CORE-11836.

This avoids race conditions under high IOs and thus corruption on
the FS, or assertions failures in the kernel.
Easily triggered by building ReactOS on ReactOS ;-).
Until now, our support for dirty volumes was totally broken
to a point where, on FAT32 volume, the dirty couldn't even
be written nor read from the disk.
This commit totally rewrites its handling, for both FAT16 and FAT32
so that it's now fully functionnal. Furthermore, it also gets
totally compatible with our vfatlib, and thus, autochk.
Now, on mount, FastFAT will check if the volume is dirty or not, and
autochk will be able to ask for a repair if dirty. vfatlib will
repair the volume and remove the dirty bit. So that, on next
reboot, the volume will be mounted clean.
As a reminder, the dirty bit is set immediately after mounting
the volume, so that, if you crash or have a powercut, autochk
will always attempt to repair your volume (with more or less,
that's FAT!).
If you want to experience without breaking your FAT volume,
just boot, open a cmd prompt and type: fsutil dirty set c:
and reboot!

This is a hack, and totally not the default behavior.
But it will allow autochk locking the boot volume in
order to verify it on boot, in case it would have
been improperly dismounted.

This avoids initializing cache directly on directory
open/create.
The advantage is we reduce the load on cache manager
and on memory manager by avoiding creating everytime
a stream file object, and initializing cache for it.
This will avoid initializing cache for started
applications 'current directory' which is just opened
for having a valid handle but no read/write is performed
in it, by default.
This is a step forward for autochk.
CORE-14629
Before performing a read operation, FastFAT driver will
attempt to compute whether it would run out of stack
during the operation. If so, instead of attempting the
operation in the current thread, it will post the read
request to the overflow thread.
This should help with the regressions brought in by
94ead99e0c.
CORE-14601
Before any write operation that would involve caching, ask
the cache controler whether writing would make it exceed its memory
consumption. If so, queue the write operation for later execution.
In case the write operation can wait, then, the FSD operation will be
halted until the write is allowed.
I could test it successfully by copying huge files from a FAT volume to
another. The write is halted until some portions of the file is written
to the disk.
I could also properly install Qt (SDK) on ReactOS with this and less than 1GB RAM:
