Subject: [git patches] Ocfs2 and Configfs updates for 2.6.27

These patches were sent out earlier this week for review. The only change I
made since then was a small update to Coly's bugfix to remove some code
which it obsoleted.

Original message and revised diffstat follow:

I'm running a bit late with the e-mail this time around, but I think that's
ok since there really isn't any major new features here - the bulk of the
Ocfs2 update is bug fixes, or cleanups. The same goes for configfs.

The only two things that could be described as features would be:

- Sunil has updated Ocfs2 to provide even more live cluster locking
  information via debugfs.

- Joel updated configfs's ->make_item() and ->make_group() callbacks to
  return more descriptive error types. This update is responsible for the
  changes to drivers/net/netconsole.c and fs/dlm/config.c as shown in the diffstat.

Please pull from 'upstream-linus' branch of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mfasheh/ocfs2.git upstream-linus
