Compared to the previous try, this basically tracks submount inodes
in a dedicated hash to avoid browsing through all inodes at sync
time.
Given the limited time I had to spend on this, it certainly
requires some more thinking and testing around corner cases.
Since C virtiofsd is being deprecated, I don't think it's
worth investing much in supporting all possible scenarios.
Maybe add sanity checks and proper error handling for things
that would obviously break.
