Sigh, it seems I was unsubscribed a while ago from linux-fsdevel and linux-ext4 for some reason.  I was CC'd on enough emails that I didn't notice it until the call today.

It is kind of awkward to have both underscores and hyphens in the same parameter.  What about just using "auto_64bit_support", since the feature is also called "64bit" and not "64-bit"?
