Hi folks,

Does this change require any of the earlier patches in the series? If
not, then it may be good to go ahead and merge this conversion
separately, ahead of the rest of the series.

There's a conflict with patch 1 - you can see the same changes made to afs and
ceph there, but apart from that, no.  However, I can't do patch 6 without it
being applied first.  If Dominique or one of the other 9p people can get Linus
to apply it now, that would be great, but I think that unlikely since the
merge window has passed.

Agreed with the merge window passed it'll be for next one -- but I'd
like this to sit in -next for as long as possible, so I'd appreciate
either being able to carry the patch in my tree (difficult as then
you'll need to base yourself on mine) or you putting it in there somehow
after I've got the most basic tests verified again (do you have a branch
pulled for linux-next?)

I'll try to get tests done in the next few days and check my notes for
things that were missing in the earlier version you gave me in the
past.. Sorry for not doing it myself, you're of great help.
