Hi-

Please pardon the delay - I'm just back from vacation.

Thanks for catching this.  Although this patch series isn't functionally
bisectable (in the sense that ext4 won't function correctly during a
bisection within this patch series - unavoidably, all six patches are
required for the code to work), failing compilation after a patch needs
to be fixed.  It is, in the v3 I've just posted, by simply moving the
definition of ext4_es_is_delonly() one patch earlier in the sequence.

Thanks for the testing!
Eric
