Hi Ingo,

The extra code is in patch #1 that fixes an additional GFS2_FS warning
reported by Randy that appeared after the initial CONFIGFS_FS -> 'select
SYSFS' conversion.

This patch for GFS2_FS was in scsi-post-merge-2.6.git/for-linus, but was
not included in the shortlog/stat to Linus.  So considering my current
(poor) record with Kconfig changes in mainline, I figured that sending
them out to the list one more time for review would make the most
sense.  ;)

Thanks,

--nab
