[RFC PATCH 46/61] cachefiles: Shape write requests

From: David Howells
Date: Mon May 04 2020 - 13:14:39 EST


In cachefiles_shape_extent(), shape a write request to always write to the
cache. The assumption is made that the caller has read the entire cache
granule beforehand if necessary.

Possibly this should be amended so that writes will only take place to
granules that are marked present and granules that lie beyond the EOF.
