Thats true, but are there any arches with a 64k page size? In any case
I'll follow up with another patch for that rather than try to combine it
with this one...

Here is a patch to add seq_vprintf and make use of it. It does speed
things up a bit, but not hugely (from approx 1.3 to approx 1.2 seconds
for my test). I can split this up into two bit if required, but lets see
what Al thinks is the best way to apply this. I'm happy to keep it in
the GFS2 tree if there are no objections - that should reduce conflicts
and complications, I hope.

Copying in lkml again, since this has ventured back into generic code
once more.

This patch adds an seq_vprintf function and then uses this in the GFS2
code in order to remove the need for a temporary buffer in the
glock/glstats file iteration state.
