:-)

I expect that someone will beat me for last two patches.

Short answer: You are right I know about.

Long answer: in stat64 structure I wanted to find out more information
about stat64 structure. I mean there are some variables and they have different
types and I would like to know about more info.
For example
If make sense long long	type for st_blocks. IMHO unsigned will be better.
And I would like to create new stat64 structure where is not a fault for both noMMU/MMU version.
In noMMU implementation is st_blocks unsigned long. Is it OK? or unsigned long long is better?

Thanks,
Michal
