So I think this patch needs to be applied after resolving the
slot_bitmap issue.  We may not need to protect slots with large
slot id values, but still it's possible to do so.

Taking into account that the merge window is so close that this
patch set should be targeted for 3.9, it may be possible to do
the work timely: I will post my patch series next week if possible.

Thanks,
	Takuya
