I'm intending on moving afs towards the nfs way of doing things when writing
to as-yet unread folios - unless a cache is in operation, then we read it
anyway and store the folio(s) into the cache unless the entire cache granule
is going to be overwritten unless we're supporting disconnected mode.  I know
that's exceptions-to-exceptions.
