Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Improve kobject handling in fs/ext4

This patch tries to correctly use kobjects in fs/ext4. In particular it
allocates kobjects/ksets dynamically, instead of statically, and improve
error handling in case kobject_* functions fail.

It is based on
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4.git dev
branch.

Riccardo Schirone (3):
  fs/ext4: release kobject/kset even when init/register fail
  fs/ext4: create ext4_feat kobject dynamically
  fs/ext4: create ext4_kset dynamically
