I can see this happening somehow, and it might even end up being quite 
readable. Still, I fear call stacks would compare like this:

Now:
CacheXProc()
	=> appropriate rx_Write/_Read

*** 

With clean seperation:
CacheXProc()
	=> fetchOp/storeOp (from generic ops structure)
		=> rx-wrapper (from struct afs_cacheOps)
			=> appropriate rx calls

That should be manageable, but adds stack overhead.

Cheers
