[Linux-cachefs] [PATCH 4/4] cachefiles: Wait rather than BUG'ing on "Unexpected object collision"

[David Howells]

From: Kiran Kumar Modukuri <kiran.modukuri at gmail.com>

If we meet a conflicting object that is marked FSCACHE_OBJECT_IS_LIVE in
the active object tree, we have been emitting a BUG after logging
information about it and the new object.

Instead, we should wait for the CACHEFILES_OBJECT_ACTIVE flag to be cleared
on the old object (or return an error).  The ACTIVE flag should be cleared
after it has been removed from the active object tree.  A timeout of 60s is
used in the wait, so we shouldn't be able to get stuck there.
