I committed a variant of this, since I think it makes sense to do. As a 
user, there's nothing you can do to make it work, if your platform is 
missing the cache invalidation part. And it's not a fatal error 
condition, so fio will just warn and go on.

So you can git pull the update, or download the latest tar ball snapshot 
and give it another go.
