The userspace automount(8) daemon is meant to perform a forced expire when
sent a SIGUSR2.
But since the expiration is routed through the kernel and the kernel
doesn't send an expire request if the mount is busy this hasn't worked at
least since autofs version 5.
Add an AUTOFS_EXP_FORCED flag to allow implemention of the feature and
bump the protocol version so user space can check if it's implemented if
needed.

Make the usage of the expire flags consistent by naming the expire flags
the same as it is named in the version 5 miscelaneous ioctl parameters and
only check the bit flags when needed.

The expire flag AUTOFS_EXP_LEAVES is cleared before the second call to
should_expire() in autofs_expire_indirect() but the parameter passed in
the second call is incorrect.
Fortunately AUTOFS_EXP_LEAVES expire flag has not been used for a long
time but might be needed in the future so fix it rather than remove the
expire leaves functionality.

The global variable "now" in fs/autofs/expire.c is used in an inconsistent
way, sometimes using jiffies directly, and sometimes using the "now"
variable, and setting it isn't done consistently either.
But the autofs dentry info last_used field is only updated during path
walks or during expire so jiffies can be used directly and the global
variable "now" removed.
