[Linux-cachefs] Possible patch for CacheFiles: I/O Error: Unlink failed

[gregm at servu.net.au]

48 hours in now, and no issues at all to report :-)

I actually switched my cache partitions from ext3 to ext4 and noticed a
MASSIVE performance increase.

Thanks to all for the assistance! One very happy sysadmin here :-)
