This should not be a problem, I think.  EV_RETIRE and EV_RELEASE should only be
set by fscache_relinquish_cookie().  If you (the netfs) call that to dispose of
a cookie to fscache, you shouldn't thereafter be calling fscache_invalidate()
on it.  The only case in which __fscache_invalidate() should see a dying object
is if the caching backend withdraws it (ie. EV_WITHDRAW is set).

Do you have a backtrace?
