I think I disagree with Andew here. Having a core patch separate from a new drivers/filesystem/etc.. is always a good idea. It makes reviewing a lot easier and allows independant handling, e.g. merging it earlier than the new driver for some reason - as happened for example with the clear_inode changes we needed earlier for ocfs or the pagevec exports that came in via the reiser4 patches but were needed in mainline for cifs now.
