From: Jes Sorensen <redacted> This patch set implements a number of smaller cleanups, as well as fixing a couple of cases where we don't zero out the full buffer we just obtained via malloc.All applied and push out - thanks. There were a few conflict which some stuff I was working on, but nothing serious.
Excellent, thanks!

The most controversial is probably patch 06 which caches the device block size for aligned read/writes in super1.c to avoid calling the ioctl() on each write.Yeah, it's a bit ugly, but seems reasonable.
Yeah, I was trying to find the cleanest way of doing it. I am contemplating whether it makes sense to try and push this up the stack, but I figured starting out small like this would be better.
I think it might be nearly time for 3.2.4. Do you have any thoughts about that?
I think it would be a good time - I have found it relatively quiet on the bug report front since the 3.2.3 update, so jumping to 3.2.4 sounds good. Cheers, Jes
