Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/3] ensure unique i_ino in filesystems without permanent
 inode numbers (new functions)

Here is a respun patch. It's essentially the same as the earlier one, but
adds one more function new_registered_inode. After having started on some
filesystem conversions, it's become clear to me that it would be much
simpler to handle error conditions via a wrapper to new_inode that also
returns NULL if the iunique_register fails.
