The question is how do we proceed from here. I suggest that I don't 
touch the fw cache path in my patches. Basically, leave it as it now. 
After your series in, we cleanup this bit here, maybe even move the user 
helper stuff into its own file.

I think this code is a big interleaved puzzle. Best thing is to split it 
up and figure out what interacts with what. Moving this bits here out is 
definitely the right direction.

cheers,
daniel
