Sunil, does this look OK to you? And Bret, can you please test it?

Luis, can you please prepare a proper, signed-off, changelogged version
of this and I'll grab it, thanks.


I'm not seeing any OCFS2 activity in mainline from Joel and Mark in six
months, so I'm getting those i-have-a-new-subsystem-to-maintain
feelings.

If anyone else has any urgent OCFS2 patches then please resend them, cc
myself and cc linux-kernel.
