What does --cache exactly mean? My understanding is there is no page cache in 
the guest kernel for virtiofs, so this option is to control the behaviour of 
host kernel page cache. So does it mean:
  - never     each time writing to a page cache page, flush it
  - always    don't flush unless the user asks to do it
  - auto      flush page cache when close a file.

Do I think it in the right way? Here why do we have --cache=never? Seems it 
doesn't make sense when we are in the passthroughFS case.
