This patch (based on Trond's nfs-2.6 git tree) adds the hooks need to
allow NFS to use the generic filesystem caching facility FS-Cache.
Caching is done on a per mount bases. To activate caching, the 'fsc'
flag is need as a mount option.
Ex:
    mount -o fsc server:/export /mnt

Hmm... Are you sure that is based on the latest trees?
Just this morning I did an git fetch on my cloned nfs-2.6
tree... and everything seem to apply just fine...

AFAICS it shouldn't even apply to stock 2.6.17-rc2 since it doesn't take into
account the fact that we already use PagePrivate()+nfs_invalidatepage in
order to fix truncate races.
hmm... I did not see that... so there must a disconnect somewhere...

Could you look into that please?
Will do...
