SubjectRe: Getting FS access events

How about removing code?


In 2.5.x is we move fs metadata into the pagecache, do we even need a
buffer cache anymore? Can't we just ditch it completely and make all
device access raw?

It seems to me this is not only simple but also elegant, or perhaps I
am fundamentally missing something?
