Subject: [GIT PULL] XFS update for 2.6.23

Hi Linus,

A couple of fixes for potential fs corruption.
And one fix to ensure that xfs_mru_cache is not
doing anything unless the cache has active objects.


Please pull from the for-linus branch:
    git pull git://oss.sgi.com:8090/xfs/xfs-2.6.git for-linus

This will update the following files:

 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_aops.c  |    1 +
 fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_super.c |    4 ++-
 fs/xfs/xfs_buf_item.h        |    5 +++
 fs/xfs/xfs_filestream.c      |    3 +-

commit 65de5567564e70edd01b6d4e95e548d7ba284872
Author: David Chinner <dgc@....com>

    [XFS] On-demand reaping of the MRU cache
    
    Instead of running the mru cache reaper all the time based on a timeout,
    we should only run it when the cache has active objects. This allows CPUs
    to sleep when there is no activity rather than be woken repeatedly just to
    check if there is anything to do.
