Subject: [PATCH] [RESEND] fs: cachefiles: Add support for large files in filesystem
 caching

The below patch which was first posted here:

   https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/3/193

and tested by me and picked up by the maintainer here:

   https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/1/57

But it seems to not to have made to the linux-next or Linus tree.
I'm resending what it seems like a lost patch.


From: Justin Lecher <jlec@...too.org>

Support the caching of large files.
