- There was a narrow window between checking a buffer head for being
uptodate and locking it in ntfs_file_read_compressed_block(). We now
lock the buffer and then check whether it is uptodate or not.

- Modify fs/ntfs/inode.c::ntfs_read_locked_inode() to return an error
  code and update callers, i.e. ntfs_iget(), to pass that error code
  up instead of just using -EIO.
- Modifications to super.c to ensure that both mount and remount
  cannot set any write related options when the driver is compiled
  read-only.
- Optimize block resolution in fs/ntfs/aops.c::ntfs_read_block() to
  cache the current run list element. This should improve performance
  when reading very large and/or very fragmented data.

- Fix a stupid bug introduced in 2.0.15 where we were unmapping the
  wrong inode in fs/ntfs/inode.c::ntfs_attr_iget().
- Convert $MFT/$BITMAP access to attribute inode API and remove all
  remnants of the ugly mftbmp address space and operations hack. This
  means we finally have only one readpage function as well as only one
  async io completion handler. Yey! The mft bitmap is now just an
  attribute inode and is accessed from vol->mftbmp_ino just as if it
  were a normal file. Fake inodes rule. (-:

- Fix silly bug in fs/ntfs/super.c::parse_options() which was causing
  remounts to fail when the partition had an entry in /etc/fstab and
  the entry specified the nls= option.
- Apply same macro magic used in fs/ntfs/inode.h to fs/ntfs/volume.h to
  expand all the helper functions NVolFoo(), NVolSetFoo(), and
  NVolClearFoo().
- Move copyright statement from driver initialisation message to
  module description (fs/super.c). This makes the initialisation
  message fit on one line and fits in better with rest of kernel.
- Update fs/ntfs/attrib.c::map_run_list() to work on both real and
  attribute inodes, and both for files and directories.
- Implement fake attribute inodes allowing all attribute i/o to go via
  the page cache and to use all the normal vfs/mm functionality:
  - Add ntfs_attr_iget() and its helper ntfs_read_locked_attr_inode()
    to fs/ntfs/inode.c.
  - Add needed cleanup code to ntfs_clear_big_inode().
- Merge address space operations for files and directories (aops.c),
  now just have ntfs_aops:
  - Rename:
        end_buffer_read_attr_async() -> ntfs_end_buffer_read_async(),
        ntfs_attr_read_block()       -> ntfs_read_block(),
        ntfs_file_read_page()        -> ntfs_readpage().
  - Rewrite fs/ntfs/aops.c::ntfs_readpage() to work on both real and
    attribute inodes, and both for files and directories.
  - Remove obsolete fs/ntfs/aops.c::ntfs_mst_readpage().

Whoever did the strsep patches didn't check that ips still compiles.
here's a patch.

Found a few typos in the input changes. Fixup patch attached.

  drivers/ide/probe.c initializes gd->de_arr and gd->flags twice. Except that
it is unnecessary it also leaks memory.

Edition 4.1 of the System V Application Binary Interface says that
"The first namesz bytes in name contains a null-terminated
representation of the entry's owner or originator".  This implies that
the terminating null is included in namesz, which is corroborated by
the example that follows the description.  However, this is not what
the Linux kernel does when it writes its notes into an ELF core dump.
The attached patch fixes this.

HACK ALERT! This needs to be fixed to do what reiserfs
actually thinks it _should_ do.

In usb_bluetooth_probe, the transfer buffers for the write pool urbs
are allocated with size 0, because bluetooth->bulk_out_buffer_size isn't set
until after the loop.

Moved the file ops and minor number stuff out of the usb structure,
Now usb_register_dev() and usb_deregister_dev() must be called if 
you want to use the USB major number.

This patch removes BKL protection from the invocation of the
super_operations ->statfs() method, and shifts it into the filesystems
where necessary. Any out-of-tree filesystems may need to take the BKL in
their statfs() methods if they were relying on it for synchronisation.

All ->statfs() implementations have been modified to take the BKL,
except for those that don't reference any external mutable data or that
already have their own locking.

Additionally, capifs is changed to use simple_statfs rather than its
own home-grown version.

The BKL change has been flagged at the end of
Documentation/filesystems/porting, along with the recent change to
->permission BKL usage.

	* ->i_dev followed the example of ->s_dev - it's dev_t now.  All
remaining uses of ->i_dev either outright want dev_t (stat()) or couldn't
care less (printing major:minor in /proc/<pid>/maps, etc.)

	* JFS uses its ->logdev only twice - one of the places assigns
it to_kdev_t(le32_to_cpu(...)), another uses kdev_t_to_nr() of it.
Switched to u32 - it's just a place where we store device number we'd got
from superblock.
	* several reiserfs_fs.h function prototypes removed - functions
in question don't exist anymore.
	* smbfs doesn't support device nodes; ->f_rdev removed.

	* svc_export ->ex_dev turned into dev_t.  It's a pure search
key and all places that set it actually do to_kdev_t(some_dev_t_expression).

	* ->dev killed for md/linear.c (same as previous parts)

	* md_import_device() returns resulting rdev or ERR_PTR(error)
instead of returning 0 or error an letting caller find rdev.

	* a bunch of callers of partition_name() are calling
bdev_partition_name(),
	* the last users of raid1 and multipath ->dev are gone; so are
the fields in question.

	* ->diskop() split into individual methods; prototypes cleaned
up.  In particular, handling of hot_add_disk() gets mdk_rdev_t * of
the component we are adding as an argument instead of playing the games
with major/minor.  Code cleaned up.

	* ->error_handler() switched to struct block_device *.
	* md_sync_acct() switched to struct block_device *.
	* raid5 struct disk_info ->dev is gone - we use ->bdev everywhere.
	* bunch of kdev_same() when we have corresponding struct block_device *
and can simply compare them is removed from drivers/md/*.c
