The RapidDisk and RapidCache modules have been updated for the 3.14 kernel. A few changes in the kernel block structures warranted a little bit of rewrite for this new kernel. For the most part the changes were trivial and straight forward and without risk. Thanks go to Marcel Huber for identifying the compile issue and for testing the modules. He also discovered a bug in the rxio test utility which apparently existed on 64-bit systems. It makes sense since I originally wrote and used it on a 32 bit system.
