Hi Stephen --

I am continuing to work towards other users for cleancache. While
it is not clear if they will be ready in time for the 2.6.38 window,
it is possible. If it is not too difficult to keep cleancache in
linux-next for now, I'd appreciate it if it stayed in. However
if you or Linus prefer otherwise, I understand.

Thanks,
Dan
