Thanks for noticing! At a quick look, I think erofs/fscache.c part is fine,
but will test on our side again!

(Actually, Matthew's PR mentioned a version formed by Stephen...
 erofs:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-next/20220502180425.7305c335@canb.auug.org.au/

 but your version also looks good to me, thanks! )

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
