Unless cache strategies involve a huge amount of kernel code, I'd
recommend always compiling all of the cache strategies, and then have
a way to change the cache strategy via a mount option (and possibly
remount, although that can get tricky if there is already cached
information).  You could also specify a default in the erofs
superblock, you think that would be useful.
