[OpenAFS] flush cache

[Moose Finklestein]

The easiest way to flush a cache is, as root, to:
fs setca 1
fs setca 0

The first will try to reduce the size of the cache to 1 block. This
won't literally happen, but it'll likely go down below 100.

The latter will set your cache size back to the default set in the
cacheinfo file.

If that doesn't work, you will have to reboot.  The best way to clean
the cache out completely is to remove the file
/usr/vice/cache/CacheItems and reboot.
