I could be wrong but, wasn't there a later set of patches, _replacing_
this one? Am I mixing unrelated / independent set of patches?
Also, simplification / unification sometimes might imply that a later
check / test / review / patch (e.g. for one particular supported
filesystem, or adding support for a new fs) might be more complicated,
or might (unwillingly) affect other filesystem support. Am I wrong?
Regards,
Ady.
