This looks like very old complaints.
Reiser4 has been adjusted to some VFS changes, which
were really needed. It could happen that those changes
caused some local problems, but all they have been fixed
long time ago.

I confirm that everything is OK in page_cache.c.

BTW, as far as I remember, all patches of Laurent Riffard
were extremely useful.

Thanks,
Edward.
