The patch enables feature by passing 'true' to fuse_file_put in fuse_release_common.
Previously, this was safe only in special cases when we sure that multi-threaded userspace won't deadlock if we'll synchronously send FUSE_RELEASE in the context of read-ahead or write-back callback. Now, it's always safe because callbacks don't send requests to userspace anymore.
