Hmmm...  I should perhaps be calling this.  I'm not sure why I never did.

At the moment, it doesn't strictly matter as ops on pages marked with
PG_fscache get ignored if the cache has suffered an I/O error or has been
withdrawn - but it will incur a performance penalty (the PG_fscache flag is
checked in the netfs before calling into fscache).

The downside of calling this is that when a cache is removed, fscache would go
through all the cookies for that cache and iterate over all the pages
associated with those cookies - which could cause a performance dip in the
system.
