I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on what sheepdog write cache
should be. I think it should work in the same way as a block device
cache, but you think we should limit the usage to simplify the code
and explain what's the limitation in the documentation. Wuyue's patch
looks necessary from my point of view, but unnecessary to you. I
don't intend to complain any more because it's you who implements the
current object cache and it should work as you expect. If I need the
write cache which works like a block device one, I should implement it
as another cache feature.

If I can disable it, it's okay to me. I still think the feature which
doesn't follow the block storage semantics shouldn't be default like
asyncflush, though.
