Thanks.  I have a growing series of cleanups (43 at present, including
these and the namei/dcache patches).  Is posting them here the best
approach?  I assume I should keep them in well-defined groups.  Should I
wait for one set to be merged before sending more, or should I just send
them when I think they are ready and you (or others) will look at them
as time permits.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
