FS-Cache: Handle read request vs lookup, creation or other cache failure
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
FS-Cache doesn't correctly handle the netfs requesting a read from the cache
on an object that failed or was withdrawn by the cache.  A trace similar to
the following might be seen:

	CacheFiles: Lookup failed error -105
	[exe   ] unexpected submission OP165afe [OBJ6cac OBJECT_LC_DYING]

The object state might also be OBJECT_DYING or OBJECT_WITHDRAWING.

This should be handled by simply rejecting the new operation with ENOBUFS.
There's no need to log an error for it.  Events of this type now appear in the
stats file under Ops:rej.
