There is no gurantee that clearing all the cache files from all applications will clear up enough storage to achieve the desired value.

Parameters:

freeStorageSize - The number of bytes of storage to be freed by the system. Say if freeStorageSize is XX, and the current free storage is YY, if XX is less than YY, just return. if not free XX-YY number of bytes if possible.
