I've updated the ext4 backport branches on the ext4 git tree:

The for-stable branch is branched off of 2.6.28.2, and has a candidate
set of patches to be included in the next stable release.  The
for-stable-2.6.27 branch is branched off of 2.6.27.13.  

I'm more confident with the 2.6.28 stable candidate than the 2.6.27
stable candidates at the moment, but given that we just missed the
2.6.27.14 and 2.6.28.3 release cycles, that should give us plenty of
time to test the patches.
