The backend storage is writing the first correct bucket data it finds
back to each copy. Therefor every bucket got written on every boot. Even
if the content did not change. The direct backend was missing an cache
that represent the current data in the buckets. This patch adds the
cache and improves the bootup time on systems with direct bucket storage
like eeproms.
