When the exports table is changed, exportfs will usually write a new time to the "flush" file in the nfsd.export cache procfile. This tells the kernel to flush any entries that are older than that value. This gives us a mechanism to tell whether an unexport might have occurred. Add a new ->flush cache_detail operation that is called after flushing the cache whenever someone writes to a "flush" file.
