So this patch is more about mm level changes than it is about the file
system, and I didn't see any comments from the linux-mm peanut gallery
(unless the linux-ext4 list got removed from the cc list, or some such).

I haven't had time to take a close look at the ext4 changes, and I'll
try to carve out some time to do that --- but has anyone from the mm
side of the world taken a look at these patches?

Thanks,
