This patch is respun based on some suggestions by Josef Sipek. The different
modes of simple_fill_super are different enough that they probably ought to
be different functions. This makes that so.
With this patch it's not necessary to change some of the callers of
simple_fill_super yet, but they'll need to be changed sometime so I left
that in place.
