Seems that 2.6.24-mm1+hot-fixes still didn't have
iget-stop-isofs-from-using-read_inode-fix-3.patch:



From: David Howells <dhowells@...hat.com>

Fix isofs_get_block() to return only 0 on success.  It shouldn't return a
+ve block count for example.

Also make sure that isofs_get_blocks() doesn't accidentally return an error
if rv is 0 come the return statement.
