I've added this patch to the pu branch.  I've also updated the pu
branch so it's up to date with the latest maint branch.  I also found
some missing conversions of ext2fs_group_{first,last}_block() to
ext2fs_group_{first,last}_block2().  

I also cleaned up a number of patches which I'm confident enough are
clean enough that I've fast forwarded the next branch to include them.

There are now only 16 patches left that are unique to the pu branch,
down from 57 patches initially (and many of the patches are smaller as
they were refactored).
