So I've done some basic smoke testing (~2 hours of LTP+xfstests) on the

applied (also attaching to this mail), and no obvious breakage popped up.
So if noone sees any principal problem there, I'll happily submit it with
proper attribution etc.
So this seems to have died down, and a week later we seem to not have
a lot of noise here any more. I think it means people either weren't
testing it, or just didn't find any real problems.
I've reverted the 'let's try to just remove the code' part in my tree.
But I didn't apply the two other patches yet. Any final comments
before that should happen?
