UNH CI reported an ABI failure for this patch which did not report due to a bug on our end, so I'm manually reporting it now. I see Maxime you already predicted the issue though!

Here I was thinking that if we add an entry and then remove a
different entry, they could be in the same page. But on I should have
kept an enable=false in remove_all().

And now that I think about it again, I could just check if there are
any active cache entries in the page on every evict/remove, they're
sorted so that should be an easy check. Unless there are any
objections I'll go forward with that.

Sorry about that! You're right, checking the fd per operation should
be easy enough.
