I just finished a rough (but working) implementation of in-kernel
page cache compression backend (called zcache). During this work,
I found some issues with cleancache, mostly related to (lack of)
comments/documentation:
Great to hear!  And excellent feedback on the missing
documentation... I am working on this right now so your
feedback is very timely.

(documentation and funcition return values comments deleted
as I will fix all of them)
quoted

+static inline int cleancache_init_fs(size_t pagesize)

 - It seems that returning pool_id of 0 is considered as error
condition (as it appears from deactivate_locked_super() changes).
This seems weird; I think only negative pool_id should considered
as error. Anyway, please add function comments for these.
Hmmm... this is a bug.  0 is a valid pool_id.  I'll fix it
for the next rev.
Page cache compression was a long-pending project. I'm glad its
coming into shape with the help of cleancache :)
Thanks!
Dan
