That TODO thing was a temporary fixup for the release and indeed it is
sorted out in this pull request.

If inode_set_cached_link() looks like this:
static inline void inode_set_cached_link(struct inode *inode, char
*link, int linklen)
{
        VFS_WARN_ON_INODE(strlen(link) != linklen, inode);
        VFS_WARN_ON_INODE(inode->i_opflags & IOP_CACHED_LINK, inode);
        inode->i_link = link;
        inode->i_linklen = linklen;
        inode->i_opflags |= IOP_CACHED_LINK;
}

then you got the right version.
