The patches to make the AFS filesystem use it were removed, pending a release of updated filesystem caching patches. The NFS filesystem patches that use it haven't yet found there way into Andrew's tree, but are also being held pending FS-Cache being updated. If you wish, I will send the FS-Cache patch, the AFS patch and the NFS patch to Andrew so that you can see. CacheFS needs more work, however, before that can be re-released.
