I've uploaded my edits to r16 here:
http://people.redhat.com/msnitzer/patches/multisnap/kernel/2.6.33/r16a/

You can see the edits here:
http://people.redhat.com/msnitzer/patches/multisnap/kernel/2.6.33/r16a/r16_edits.patch

Boils down to:
* use __func__ rather than hardcoding the function name
  - this fixed ~3 inconsistencies (incorrect function names) and should
    help if/when we do any function renaming in later phases of review
* s/Tomonorig/Tomonori/
* a few more typo fixups
* a few more whitespace cleanups.

I'd appreciate it if you pull these in for the basis of any follow-on
release you make.

Also, I'm working to improve Documentation/device-mapper/dm-multisnapshot.txt
I'll share this a bit later (hopefully today).

Mike
