Extend the fscache netfs API so that the netfs can ask as to whether a cache object is up to date with respect to its corresponding netfs object: int fscache_check_consistency(struct fscache_cookie *cookie) This will call back to the netfs to check whether the auxiliary data associated with a cookie is correct. It returns 0 if it is and -ESTALE if it isn't; it may also return -ENOMEM and -ERESTARTSYS. The backends now have to implement a mandatory operation pointer: int (*check_consistency)(struct fscache_object *object) that corresponds to the above API call. FS-Cache takes care of pinning the object and the cookie in memory and managing this call with respect to the object state.
